The Chip Spreader is constructed from pressed steel with square and rectangular section. The unit is driven by pneumatic tire which transmits the drive from the road surface to a dog clutch mounted on a lay shaft. Further the drive to the feed roller is transmitted through chain and sprocket mechanism.
A metered application results by using spring loaded drive wheel, that automatically contacts the road surface as the body is tipped to the working position, and rotates the feed roller relative to ground speed through an operator controlled dog clutch |
