Both spreaders are available as ground drive or hydraulic drive with the hydraulic drive spreaders capable of variable rate application.

Ground drive machines have a three-speed setting via chain and sprockets. The spinners or spreading discs are hydraulic drive and they are driven via a proportional valve with manual override. Ground drive models have a pressure compensated flow valve for spinner speed control.

Wheel centres can be set at either 2m or 3m and the spinners are set 1000mm from the ground.

The 7390 has a bin capacity of 7870 litres and the 7312 has a bin capacity of 10,960 litres. Load cells are an optional extra for the spreaders. Prices start at $66,000 incl GST for the 7390.
