Orchard MD

Just like our original 3T-ORCHARD model, the stainless steel bin volume is large at 2.35 cubic metres, and the wide rubber belt is perfect for handling composts, mulches, poultry manure and grape marc, as well as the full range of granulated fertilisers, lime and gypsum.

The huge advantage with the Multi-Delivery Orchard Spreader is the inclusion of a permanent side delivery conveyor mounted at the front of the bin. This lets you easily switch between broadcasting with the rear twin spinner discs or banding from the front belt – invaluable when you need to deliver high rates of bulky compost or mulch. It’s easy for the tractor driver to see and control.

The axle can be positioned for optimal headland turning performance and the single wheels eliminate tyre scuffing in tight turns. Twin rear spinners with bi-directional flights are fitted as standard, and the spinner direction of rotation is easily switched to best suit the product you're spreading.

 

The 2.35 cu.m bin is made from Grade 304 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance to harsh chemical fertilisers

Tapered front corners on the stainless bin to minimise vine and fruit damage

The main belt is 780mm wide with moulded cleats to handle all types of high analysis fertilisers and bulky organic products. The belt is attached to a high tensile chain and slat assembly for a positive drive and maintenance-free tracking

The main belt is attached to high tensile galvanised drive chains for a non-slip drive that doesn't need tracking

The front conveyor has a large door for high volumes. The belt is speed controlled for accurate placement and can be extended out for extra reach

The hydraulic drive system delivers excellent accuracy and spread rates can be adjusted quickly from the tractor seat with the touch screen controller

Rear mounted stainless steel spinners are bi-directional to suit the spreading application. The speed of each spinner is controlled independently from the tractor seat on the touch screen controller to give you effective width and boundary spreading control.

Rear banding attachments for the spinners are a great option for band spreading and placing granular fertiliser at the base of the plants

The drawbar and axle positioning is designed for a tight turning circle in headlands and optimal trailer tracking giving excellent maneuverability

A heavy duty crash guard wraps around the front conveyor to protect the belt from posts

Full electronic control with touchscreen and hydraulic drive so that you can manage application rates precisely from the tractor seat. Monitor and adjust spread rates and spinner speeds on the go, and upgrade with electronic weighing, proof of placement mapping, headland control and ISOBUS options.

The spreader is ‘scale ready’ - add electronic scales at the factory or as an after-market kit for load measurement and auto calibration.

Hydraulic brakes

Hydraulic brakes provide operator safety and allow machine operation in difficult terrain.

Hydraulic brakes are available for most machines.  On tandem axles, brakes are fitted to the front hubs only.  If necessary, 4-wheel braking is available.  The drum brakes work off external tractor hydraulics and have an adjustable relief valve and hoses included in the kit.

Braking systems are also available for tractors fitted with factory braking circuits that then operate when the brake pedal is depressed.
