A NEW Salt Spreader
What happens here
This step demonstrates the practical application of the Arctic Double Down in a real-world setting. A CASE TR340B skid steer first uses its regular bucket to break up a large pile of salt, a necessary step to prevent jamming, especially in freezing conditions. The skid steer then quickly swaps its bucket for the Double Down spreader, connecting the two hydraulic hoses without any electronic hookup. The operator then uses the Double Down to scoop up salt and spread it across a paved area. Adjustments to the spread pattern and volume are made using the manual valves on the back of the unit. The hinged grates are shown in action, effectively separating large salt chunks. Finally, the bucket is emptied back into the main salt pile, showcasing the efficiency of the hinged grates in discharging remaining material.
Goal: Observe the practical operation and ease of use of the Double Down in a real-world scenario.
