Tronic – mechanical spreading disc drive

With the Tronic version, the spreading discs are driven via the PTO shaft, with the spreader being protected from overload, as standard, via a PTO shaft with friction clutch. The input speed from the tractor PTO is transmitted via the central gearbox resulting in an increased spreading disc speed. This allows fertilisation at low engine revs across the maximum working width. With the mechanically driven spreaders, either 8 or 16 partwidth sections are switchable, depending on the operator terminal.
