TurfEx introduces the TS200 spreader as part of its full line of zero-turn mower attachments. Capable of spreading seed, fertilizer and ice melt, the spreader is engineered specifically to maximize mower productivity. The spreader comes with a universal mount, which helps it attach quickly to most available zero-turn mowers. It holds up to 2.5 cubic feet of material and features a corrosion-resistant polyethylene hopper to reduce weight and maintenance concerns. The spreading operation is controlled via the manual flow gate and electric-powered spinner, both of which can be actuated from the mower's seat. Additionally, the spinner includes adjustable paddles for fine-turning the spreader pattern.
