We have a old Lely centreliner, has anyone used a twin disk spinner for applying grit to a single track lane? Don't really want to be gritting the hedge.

Put some deflecters on it so it's them and drops

Shorten the vanes, run it on tick over.

That's what I was hoping to be able to do, guess it's just a trial and error job just keep cutting them down until it only spreads 3m.

Grit will just sit in the hopper and not come out,,,,,,,will need a proper agitator to work

I found that out about 4 hours ago! What a ballache. HAve welded small plates 3" coming up inside the hopper from the disks but it still bridges above the plates. Anyone recommend a purpose built tractor/telehandler mounted/towed gritter?

You could make an agitator?? It needs to be on a universal joint and be up about 400 mm. Difficult to explain but google amazone or Fleming etc and you will see what’s required
