Description
 
The 73L Galvanised Towed Salt Broadcaster is a durable and efficient solution for spreading salt on car parks, paths, and grass surfaces.
 
Its galvanised steel hopper and deflection guard provide excellent corrosion resistance, while the spreader’s design ensures even coverage and minimal damage to turf.
 
Key Features & Benefits
Forward-Speed Powered Mechanism:
The broadcaster operates via the forward motion of the towing vehicle. Wheels drive an all-metal gearbox, which powers the stainless steel spreading disc, ensuring consistent and reliable distribution of salt.
Adjustable Flow Control:
A conveniently located adjuster lever meters the correct amount of salt through the stainless steel flow control, allowing precise application from the driver’s seat.
Wide Spread Range:
Provides a spread width of 2–6 meters, adjustable based on the towing vehicle’s speed, for efficient coverage over large areas.
Turf-Friendly Design:
Equipped with wide-profile turf tyres, offering high traction while protecting grass surfaces from damage.
Efficient Salt Flow:
A stainless steel agitator rotates within the hopper to break up clumps and maintain a smooth flow of salt. The agitator and guarding can be easily removed for fertiliser or seed spreading.
Weather-Resistant Hopper:
Includes a rain-proof sheet to keep salt dry and flowing freely under all weather conditions.
Optional Hitch Attachments:
Supplied with a ring hitch as standard, with optional extras including Clevis Hitch and 50mm Ball Hitch Attachment to fit a variety of towing vehicles.
Ready to Use:
Delivered fully assembled, allowing immediate deployment.
