Description

A Row Crop Spreading Specialist

With a single-axle design and 44-inch clearance, the RC800 Fertilizer Spreader is ideally engineered for row crop applications. It includes a variable tread width from 80 to 120 inches to accommodate virtually any row spacing.

The RC800 comes equipped with a positive mechanical conveyor drive, which eliminates the slippage problems of competitive friction wheel drives. It can also be fitted with an optional hydraulic conveyor drive, which delivers a total overlapping trapezoidal pattern of up to 90 feet and offers variable rate applications.

Variable Rate Ready

Precision Applications:

A hydraulic conveyor belt drive can increase or decrease the fertilizer feed rate on the go. A prescription load rate can be written into your monitor to control how much fertilizer should be applied to each part of the field. If one area needs more nitrogen than another, for instance, the fertilizer rate will adjust automatically according to the GPS position.

FEATURES

Features

Frame Clearance

A 44-inch frame clearance for in-season applications allows operators to spoon-feed nutrients as the crop needs them.

Spread Pattern

Dual stainless steel spinners deliver a total overlapping trapezoidal pattern of up to 90 feet with an optional hydraulic drive. The standard 540 rpm PTO spinner drive produces a 50-foot pattern, as does the optional 540/1,000 rpm PTO drive.

Adjustable Tread Width

The RC800 includes a variable tread width from 80 to 120 inches, or from 90 to 152 inches, to accommodate virtually any row spacing.

Obstruction Free Interior

The hopper is smooth with minimal flat surfaces and no internal gussets or plates to accumulate fertilizer. This results in a much cleaner system that helps prevent corrosion.

Conveyor Drive

The RC800 comes standard with a hydraulic conveyor drive, making it variable rate ready.

Simple Bearing Design

One bearing part number for all driveline components on the machine greatly simplifies the maintenance and replacement process.

Split Sprocket

Allows for easy in-field replacement of worn sprockets without removal of the wheel.

Adjustable Hitch

The hitch has a moveable clevis to accommodate a wider range of drawbar heights, and allows for leveling of the spreader. The hitch is also integral to the frame, while the suspension pulls from the hitch lowering the amount of frame stress.

Integral Lights

Sealed and rubber isolated lights are tucked neatly inside the frame.
