A top-notch dresser
A top-notch dresser
LOUTH-BASED PJ Callan is now importing a German-built top dresser designed to apply both wet and dry sand to golfing greens and other sports fields.
The company also believes the unit could be used to apply sawdust to cattle yards and even salt to farm and estate roads.
Using hydrostatic drive for both the rubber, full width conveyor belt and its nylon, brush-like spreader, the application rate is controlled by altering the speed of the conveyor.
Rather than rotating the spreader in a direction which would throw granules vertically, it turns to drive them downwards. This is claimed to provide a better control of material placement.
With a capacity of 2t, the trailed Top Dresser is priced at £10,950. *
