Bio Buddy, shown above, has been designed for the convenience of landscapers/groundskeepers/acreage owners and managers and will maintain the Sittler Manufacturing standard for affordability, durability and maintenance-free operation.
The ground-driven spreader, with spreader box of 34 inches wide and 6 ft long and overall length of 9 1/2 ft; can be pulled with any tractor of 16 hp or more. The spreader can be adapted with an engine to control the speed of the 16" wide apron chain; this allows for greater variability in depth of material being spread.
The tyres are 8" x 22" turf tyres, spinners are 15” diameter. Available option of 5" metal brackets to accommodate a 2 x 6 for larger loads. With extensions, it has a 1 cubic yard capacity for compost.
