MS 18 w/ Stainless-Steel Box
This is S&A’s highest volume bulk material spreader. This unit was designed with the following foremost in mind. Ease of use, speed of operation, and reliability. You can, depending on exactly how much you want to spread, drive over the field at a very high rate of speed and still put out quite a lot of material in a single pass. The maximum spread width for this unit varies with the material and wind conditions, but you can typically spread 30′ and get real good coverage.
A standard MS 18 Compost and manure spreader comes equipped with an 18 foot heavy gauge mild or stainless steel box that is structurally reinforced at all stress points and has a 14 yard capacity. It also has a hinged tail gate with locks that release allowing the gate to flip up when starting to spread. Custom box sizes are available and matched to the chassis of the carrying vehicle. Typically this spreader is mounted on a customer provided chassis, although we can get a truck for the customer if they wish. We offer the following options on this unit: Hydraulic tail gate operated from the cab, Individual hydraulic flow controls for the conveyor and the spinners in the cab for ease of operation. Other options available.
The operation of this unit is slightly different, depending on what options you have selected, but all configurations are simple to operate. You can start and stop spreading from hydraulic controls in the cab, or from the trucks PTO control. Then all you have to do is drive the truck across the field. GPS systems are available upon request for more accurate spreading. We also build pull behind versions of this spreader, including multiple drop configurations.
