Broadcasting rape woth an Avadex

[Spotty Dog]

Not sure where to post this, is it possible to get feed rollers to broadcast rapeseed with an old Avadex spreader ?
Not panicing yet but just thinking of options if it stays wet.

i have used a techneat avadex machine to spread rape need a different rollers

the big disadvantage was in a wet year when harvest was delayed the sluggs had the seed in the 5 days delay between seeding and harvest
after that i used to spread the seed on the morning of harvest

Why spread seed before harvest?

Why spread seed before harvest?

got a rain delay and so spread it in the break to get a job done

I forget the name of it. Its a fixed rate machine, so I guess the only way of altering rate would be different feed rollers or changing drive sprocket sizes.

Horstine, I think.

what rotors or cassettes have you in it
are you on belt
or chain drive

 

[Spotty Dog]

Belt drive from land wheel and chain to the 2 cassettes. Not sure what the cassettes are other than they work fine for avadex
