MD THS80 Walk-Behind Spreader

Every year thousands of people slip and fall, causing themselves injury, and when the path is icy, the risk is greater. The last thing you want is a member of staff, the public, your family or a visitor coming a cropper on the ice when you could have prevented it. Factor in the problems of keeping up and running when ice and snow clog up your yard, car park or forecourt and suddenly a snowfall becomes a crisis. This is what salt and ice melt spreaders were made for, and the MD THS80 Walk-Behind Spreader is one of the best example of a simple, easy and affordable way to clear your paths and walkways, keep them clear and make them safe when snow and ice come to call. With a larger capacity of 36kg (80lbs) the MD THS80 Walk-Behind Spreader can cover plenty of area before you have to
refill and the weather and corrosion proof hopper is made of strong and durable polypropylene, bright red in colour for greater visibility. The flow rate of your spreading material can be adjusted to suit and is controlled from the right side handle with a large and simple to operate lever, making it easy and convenient to calibrate the distribution of ice melts or salt, even when on the move. The spreading width is up to three metres. The handle has a comfort grip, which is very welcome if you are walking around for long hours and insulates your hands from the metal frame handle. The frame is constructed from robust powder coated steel. The wheels are a good size and come fitted with robust and deeply patterned pneumatic tyres, the diamond patterning delivering superior traction even
on ice or moving through slush. The handle is fully foldable, enabling you to store and transport this compact and useful spreader with ease, and it comes with a hopper screen. NB: Always remember to clean your spreader after use. This reduces the chance of corrosion and any long-term damage.
