Turfco WideSpin 1550 Broadcast Topdresser

OVERVIEW

The "Turfco Edge" started with listening to what frustrates superintendents when it comes to topdressing. We heard they were tired of doing wheel-to-wheel spreads, overlapping spreads, dealing with complicated mechanical adjustments, and wasting time checking in with their crews to verify spread settings.

The WideSpin™ 1550 solves these problems, and more. Calculating and knowing your rates is easier. Adjusting settings is easier. Saving preferred settings is easier. Loading is easier. Topdressing greens, approaches and tees at the same time is easier. And getting the exact spread you want, every time, is easier.

Our unique design makes it easy to get whatever width and rate you want, without having to do mechanical adjustments. You can save your preferred applications into nine programmable presets, changing widths and rates on the fly, increasing productivity, eliminating guesswork and freeing up your time.

WideSpin 1550 topdressers are available in truck-mounted and tow-behind models with engine or hydraulic power options. You can choose between Standard Electronic Control or upgrade to our patented digital Smart Controller. Standard Electronic Control models are easy to use and offer good value for the money. Smart Controller models offer rate calculation and programmable presets for greatest productivity and labor savings.
