MORE UTILITY FROM YOUR UTV
Tornado™ UTV POLY HOPPER SPREADER
SLAY ICY SIDEWALKS & PATHS
The WESTERN® Tornado™ UTV 11 cu ft poly hopper spreader is built just for UTVs. It features a sturdy, compact design that delivers many features of the larger models, in a size just right for your utility vehicle.
Unique Features
Cover
A fitted tarp cover helps de-icing material stay dry to prevent clumping.
Dual Electric Motors
Two instant-start, 12-volt electric motors provide quiet, reliable, independent control over the auger and spinner mechanisms. The spinner motor is sealed inside a weather-resistant housing, protecting it from corrosion.
Controls
Dual variable-speed control allows you to precisely match material delivery and spread patterns to conditions. A switch to run the vibrator is integrated into the control for operator convenience.
Corrosion-Resistant Hopper
The one-piece hopper is built of durable polyethylene for corrosion-free performance, whether using rock salt, calcium chloride or any other type of de-icing material.
Material Delivery
Material is delivered by a heavy-duty, powder coated, horizontal steel auger to provide long-lasting, reliable performance.
When an obstruction occurs, the transverse auger delivery system can reduce downtime by automatically backing itself in and out until the obstruction is cleared or a required adjustment has been made.
Spinner
The durable 12" spinner delivers a spread pattern of up to 30' and provides long-lasting, corrosion-free performance.
Spinner Guard
Located at the top and bottom, guards help protect the spinner from damage if the operator accidentally backs into a solid object.
Quick-Connect Spinner Assembly
Gain easy access to the hitch by removing the quick-connect spinner drive assembly.
Drop Chute
The quick-connect drop chute can easily be removed for access to the hitch.
Inverted V / Vibrator
The standard inverted V helps keep sufficient material weight off of the auger, ensuring smooth startup and flow of material.
The inverted V is directly connected to a 12-volt vibrator to help reduce bridging and keep material moving to the auger.
Top Screen
The standard coated steel top screen helps break up large chunks of de-icing material during the loading process to help prevent clogging and bridging during spreader operation.
Ratchet Straps
Add additional spreader stability to your vehicle with standard nylon tie-down ratchet straps.
Additional Standard Features
Heavy-duty steel frame with electrostatic powder coat finish.
Featured Accessories
Material Control Tube (Auger Tube Restrictor Kit)
Prevent leaking issues when using fine pellet and flake materials, such as many commercially available non-salt ice melt materials. The material control tube is a sleeve that holds the auger and prevents expensive, fine grain ice melt materials from uselessly leaking out as you drive down the road.
Optimum Flow Kit
The optimum flow kit improves material flow and allows spreading of a 50/50 salt/sand mix with a vibrator and dual pitch baffle. The vibrator helps to keep material moving inside the hopper while the dual pitch baffle maintains an even feed of material to the auger, preventing bridging and over loading of the auger motor.
Dielectric Grease
Don’t risk corrosion problems—use WESTERN® dielectric grease! Western Products recommends all owners consistently use our special formulation dielectric grease to protect all electrical connections in the tough winter snow, ice, and salt conditions.
