1560B Drop Spreader
1560B Drop Spreader
Our largest design, the 1560B Bucket salter is a powerhouse when it comes to ice management. Fit for compact tractor attachment, this bucket holds up to 15 cubic feet of material and spreads product in a 60” width, making it an ideal unit for long driveways, smaller parking lots, and those looking to increase efficiency in their route.
Prevent Overspread: The precise, narrow distribution prevents excess use of material and damage to lawnscapes.
Minimal Maintenance: General maintenance includes regularly greasing shaft bearings and ensuring the hopper is empty after each use.

Flexible Finger Bar: Sturdy polymer finger bar applies pressure on the distributor, guiding material while controlling quantity dropped. Designed to maintain it’s memory and flexibility in cold environments.
Tension Lever: Standard across models, this assembly is designed to control the amount of pressure the finger bar places on the drum.
Distributor Drum: Helically placed tabs drop material in a cross-hatched spread pattern that maximizes use.
Agitator: Effectively breaks up chunks of de-icing material to ensure consistent flow.
Sealed Bearings: Included for minimal maintenance.

Sand Drum (Standard)
The sand drum is constructed with powder-coated mild steel, and features small tabs welded in a helical patten across it’s surface. These tabs release pressure on the finger bar as the drum rotates, releasing material. The helical pattern creates a cross-hatched drop, which ensures an efficient spread of material.
The sand drum is standard across models unless alternate option is specified at the time of ordering.
Salt Drum
The salt drum is constructed with tivar rollers that feature small pockets, milled in a helical pattern across it’s surface. These pockets allow for material to sit inside and drop as the drum rotates past the finger bar. The helical pattern creates a cross-hatched drop, which ensures an efficient spread of material.
The salt drum is recommended only when rock salt will be used exclusively.
-
The bucket models come with a bolt-on framework that requires an adaptive bracket for attachment.
Category 1, 3-Point Tilt: Hydraulic cylinders convert the machine into a self-loading unit. Requires a second set of remotes. *Hoses not included.
Skid Steer Adaptor
-
Based on unique features, each type of de-icer behaves differently with the finger-bar and drum setup. Before adding material, add tension to the drum and adjust accordingly to reach the desired drop rate.
