What happens here
The team prepares for a controlled test of the newer BOSS VBX+ spreader. Alex adjusts the spreader's controls, setting both the auger and spinner to their highest settings (10 on the conventional 1-10 scale), with the goal of achieving a 40-foot spread distance. He demonstrates how to use the 'blast' function for maximum material dispersion in critical areas. Tim then operates the truck, beginning the spread test.
Goal: Measure the maximum throw distance of the newer BOSS VBX+ spreader.
