TOPDRESSERS/SPREADERS

Campey Imants Raycam Speedressers The Raycam Speedressers (18H and 24H) are bulk drop-spreaders to handle sand and topdressing material. The four flotation tires minimize the risk of turf damage and compaction. The 18H (6 ft./1.828m) and 24H (7 ft. 10 in./2.387m) models offer accurate dressing with high volume using PTO and hydraulic drive through a twin roller system. For details, see: www.campeyimants.com.

Redexim North America Rink 1520 The 1520 makes large area spreading easier. This trailed unit holds over two tons of wet or dry top dressing, running on large, low-ground pressure flotation wheels. Power to move the self-aligning belt is hydraulic, and either the tractor direct or optional tank and pump is PTO powered. The spread thickness is controlled by belt speed and gate, and the standard drop spread width of 60-in. (1.4m), making this the most versatile topdresser.
