1. What material is the Atlas I Spreader made from to prevent rust?
The hopper is constructed from robust, corrosion-resistant plastic, and the tubular steel frame is coated. This combination ensures that the spreader is highly durable and will not rust or degrade when exposed to corrosive rock salt and winter weather, offering multi-season reliability.
2. What kind of salt can I use with this spreader?
The Atlas I is suitable for all BS3247 certified de-icing salt, including both brown rock salt and premium white salt. It is also designed to handle granular fertiliser, making it a versatile tool for year-round ground maintenance (we recommend cleaning it thoroughly between seasonal changes).
3. How do I control the amount of salt being spread?
The spreader features an easy-to-use, adjustable flow control mechanism. This lever allows you to precisely regulate the aperture opening at the base of the hopper, controlling the minimum and maximum volume of material released onto the spinning disk, thereby ensuring efficient use and avoiding waste.
4. Will the salt clog or clump inside the hopper?
The Atlas I is equipped with a revolutionary spinning agitator located inside the hopper. This mechanism continuously moves the salt around the aperture, actively breaking up any clumps or bridging that might form, guaranteeing a consistent, even, and blockage-free flow during operation.
5. Is the handle height adjustable for different users?
Yes, the tubular steel handle is designed to be easily adjustable. This allows the user to set the perfect height for comfortable operation, reducing strain and making it easy for personnel of different sizes to efficiently cover large areas.
