Ventrac, based in Orrville, Ohio, released its new Sidewalk Drop Spreader.
With a narrow frame and a 40-in. drop pattern, this spreader is designed for spreading material on sidewalks and other narrow walkways. The stainless steel construction prevents premature failure due to rust and corrosion.
The compression roller system allows operators to accurately spread both coarse and free-flowing materials, the manufacturer says. An easy gate adjustment allows for tuning flow rates based on the type of material being spread and the desired quantity being applied. The wireless remote control regulates five motor speeds for quick flow adjustments from the operator seat. An agitation system prevents material bridging and eliminates the need for a traditional, noisy vibration motor.
This product may be mounted on all Ventrac tractor models or to other power unit platforms. With mounting options for a 2-in. receiver hitch or a category one three-point hitch, the Ventrac Sidewalk Drop Spreader can be easily attached to other sub-compact tractors, ATVs or UTVs, making it a versatile unit.
