What happens here

The video showcases the integrated salt and brine spreading system. The salt spreader, capable of holding multiple 50-pound bags of rock salt, features a built-in de-clumping mechanism to ensure consistent flow. For liquid applications, the brine system utilizes tanks integrated into the machine's frame, with a separate pump and adjustable nozzles for precise application. A hand wand is also available for targeted spot treatments. The system is controlled by a dedicated module that allows adjustment of spread rate and operation of work/hazard lights.

Goal: Demonstrate the machine's de-icing and anti-icing capabilities.

okay so what were you saying now for the built-in feature where the this adjustment here will go all the way down and on the inside it'll interfere with the augers to help with something that's been going on and allows itself to fall down uh so you don't have to have a vibration kit on this unit oh so intentionally if somebody has this unit now and they're noticing a Clank that's purposely built in to declump the Salt that's correct okay 350 pound bags three 80 pound bags so 150 pounds roughly total it's a 280 pound bag as well okay for the salt yep for the brine here and is this for a salt Shredder this is for the salt spreader this is the control this unit right here yep and then the uh the extra lights on here yep the work light and then the uh hazard lights on there it's also controlled by this module and then we have a tractor hazard lights what can you tell me about this module so for the most part you have speed right here okay um on off uh and then you've got that just added accessories that can go along with it so it just basically drops the salt right out of there doesn't actually spread it it just kind of just as wide as that passes that's just wide enough 30 33 or 36. okay so it covers your path is what it does you can adjust the drop with so it can go from 30 33 36 so there's little baffles that you can flip around underneath here that allows you to manage how much you're dropping then it's also with dropping salt behind the unit instead of in front of the unit so it isn't just kind of running over its own salt okay hey oh yeah holy that's tall that's almost up to the freaking Eaves [Music] that was too easy mode so the best so the best way to do is keep it up off the ground just slightly okay and then you're just going to take lift up the bar and the reason you want to have it off the ground because now you got free play here over oh that's pretty simple just throw that back on and now she'll be now it's a straightforward straight blade angle angle yeah an angle straight blade there's one on either side of the operator that is adjustable they go in or out and then there's three additional nozzles right at the operator's code so you get a good wide coverage across so this actually oh so you've got a nozzle here this is the one that's the one but you got a nozzle three underneath right under right forward of its feet okay three more right underneath so this does Brine and rock salt it does rhino rock salt if we have the brine behind the rear…
