I bought a Simple plug and Play salter by Boss 4K

What happens here

The technician demonstrates how to fully empty the spreader. By pressing and holding a dedicated 'empty' button on the unit's exterior panel (which activates when the in-cab controller is on), the material is quickly discharged. This feature is useful for clearing the hopper or for quickly unloading unused material. The video concludes with the truck driving out of the shop, fully equipped with the new salt spreader, as snow begins to fall.

Goal: Perform a final check and demonstrate the spreader's emptying function.

Tools and materials

  • BOSS VBX 6500 Salt Spreader BOSS — The installed and operational unit
