Western Insert Hopper Spreaders


Ice Breaker

Tornado

Western ICE BREAKER hopper spreaders are perfect for ice control on driveways, roads and parking lots. Available in 7', 8', 9' and 10' body lengths in powder coated steel or stainless steel, these rugged v-box type spreaders mount easily on pick-up, dump or platform trucks.

The new Tornado poly/electric hopper spreader offers a whirlwind of unique features that can be found on competitive models. The Tornado uses a rubber belt conveyor that delivers a more even flow of material - either sand, salt or a sand/salt mix - and its built-in top cover doubles as a spill guard to protect the truck bed when filling the hopper.

   
CONVEYER & DRIVE MOLDED REAR “FEET”
The conveyer on the ICE BREAKER™ spreaders is a 16"-wide pintle chain. This wider conveyer reduces “bridging” and moves more material for faster unloading. The v-belt drive for the conveyer system is smoother, quieter and more forgiving than a roller chain if a rock jams the conveyer. The use of a v-belt also eliminates potential corrosion problems.

POWER OPTIONS
All models offer your choice of 10 HP I/C Tecumseh or 11 HP I/C Honda® engine. The 8' and 10' models are also available with a hydraulic motor. Gas engine spreaders feature cab-mounted electronic throttle control with choke indicator light and electric clutch.

ALSO AVAILABLE
• Choice of unique vehicle battery kit which eliminates the need
  for a dedicated battery and conventional battery tray
• Inverted-vee (standard on High Capacity models)
• Short or long chute
• Standard and heavy-duty top screens
• Dual hydraulic chute option
Molded rear “feet” make removal, cleaning and storage easy.

QUICK-DETACH SPINNER
Quick-detach spinner assembly makes spreader removal and storage easier than ever.

CONVEYER BELT & TOP SCREEN
Belt conveyer (driven by a single 1/2 HP electric motor) delivers a more even flow of material.

SPEED CONTROL
Variable speed control utilizes multiplexing technology to provide self-diagnostics.
