Single axle spreader focus at show

• Bunning will return to LAMMA 25 with a focus on the importance of timely applications and reducing soil compaction through choosing wider VF flotation tyres as highlighted on its display Lowlander 175 HD HBD spreader

The Lowlander 175 HD HBD is the largest single axle spreader in Bunning’s range. On the LAMMA stand it will be fitted with BKT 710/70 R42 VF tyres featuring a high 193D load rating, which Ben Johnson, Bunning’s UK and IRE sales manager, says is a vital characteristic of the tyres.

“Fitting these tyres to our Lowlander 175 HD HBD allows us to demonstrate the increased load carrying properties. These tyres are capable of a 17.5t load, which doesn’t reduce the carrying capacity of the spreader but contributes to lowering soil compaction and helps increase spreading windows. This enables farmers and growers to carry out timely applications of manures, composts, lime, gypsum, sewage sludge and other organic products.

“LAMMA is our main show of the year and it is great to meet new and existing customers to discuss requirements. Our range of spreaders is more extensive than ever, and buyers are increasingly looking towards technology to maximise their manure use.”

The Lowlander 175 HD HBD will be fitted with weigh cells and application rate controller. This is available through ISOBUS or via one of Bunning’s compatible Topcon screens. All Bunning’s spreaders throughout its Horizontal Beater Disc (HBD) and Twin Vertical Auger (TVA) ranges can be fitted with weigh cells to improve application accuracy and work recording.

Also on the stand will be a Lowlander 120 Hybrid TVA with larger diameter rear augers and bottom blades. The wider augers increase product consistency and delivery while the bottom blades ensure an even spread pattern over the increased width.

Bunning will be on stand 6.730.
