MEYER SPREADERS – TAILGATE BROADCAST

A poly weather cap keeps precipitation and moisture out for clump-free spreading. The BL-125 frame features corrosion resistant gloss black powder paint for years of reliable use.

Controlling the BL-125 is done from the comfort of the operator’s seat using an on/off switch with flow control. Operating the BL-125 couldn’t be easier. And removing the spreader is just as easy, see below.

Base Line tailgate models are easy-to-use and perform well for small- and medium-scale jobs. The BL-240 is available in a 3.7-cubic-foot capacity, the BL-400 is available in a 6.3-cubic-foot capacity, and the all-new BL-750 is available in a 10.5-cubic-foot capacity. An integrated motor guard protects the 1/6 HP electric motor, and it also serves as a storage stand for the spreader during off-season.

All Meyer BL-240/400/750 spreaders are manufactured under Meyer’s stringent quality standards. These spreaders are fully assembled, tested, operated and packaged right off the assembly line to ensure product quality.

The hoppers are made of rust-proof, high-density polyurethane to stand up to the toughest wear and tear, and the hopper frames are powder coated with automotive style paint. We know no one’s perfect, not even you. So in the event you back into something, the motor is protected by an integrated motor guard made of tubular steel

The BL-240/400’s direct-drive system links the 1/8 h.p. motor directly to the auger, creating up to 75% more auger power than non-direct drive set-ups. The motor provides superior clump-busting performance, and its marine-style electrical plug keeps the water out to ensure consistent electrical flow from the vehicle’s battery.

With the touch of a button, the highly intuitive and reliable variable speed (fast, slow and vibrate) touch-pad controller is easy to use and delivers a precise spread-pattern of up to 25 feet. To adjust the spinner from 0 – 9, simply press the “faster” button and the updated speed will illuminate on the face of the control pad.

Patented No-Leak Auger Kit (Course Material) This brush auger kit prevents course material like free-flowing #2 rock salt from leaking through the throat of the spreader. It also provides a uniform salt distribution pattern

Patented No-Leak Auger Kit (Fine Material) This brush auger kit prevents fine free-flowing material like fine salt from leaking through the throat of the spreader. It also provides a uniform salt distribution pattern.

The Meyer Flow Gate control system allows the end-user to set the material flow rate based on the material being used. The unit is made of 100% aluminum and will not rust, is lightweight, and extremely easy to install. The unit clamps to the throat of the spreader. Simply clamp the flow gate unit onto the discharge throat of the unit, tighten the clamping screws, and the flow gate teeth bite into the discharge throat securing the control to the spreader. Salt is very expensive, and the flow gate control maximizes material discharge eliminating waste.

The unit also boasts convenient features such as back-lit controls for visual clarity at night, and a variable-speed dial that easily controls spinner speed. When it comes to serviceability, this controller is two steps ahead of the competition. The Controller also monitors the motor performance, if the controller senses that the motor is not operating it automatically shuts down the system allowing the operator to inspect the system. In anticipation of unwanted amp surges, the unit comes standard with easy-to-replace automotive-type fuses. The Meyer Controller requires minimal installation and comes with all mounting hardware and instructions for easy installation.

The Meyer Mate spinner shaft can be adjusted to accommodate dry, free flowing #1 rock salt, sand or calcium chloride, and it can even spread seed and other minerals for year-round applications. The Mate is powered by a 1/6-horsepower, 12-volt DC electric motor and has variable in-cab speed controls. A standard vibrator motor is provided for use with sand and damp materials to maximize performance.

Ice melt is expensive, and the problem with most tailgate spreaders is that it leaks out of the hopper when the spreader is not in use. To prevent this money drain from happening, the Blaster 350 and 750 both come standard with a patented brush auger that prevents material leakage. The auger’s helix design also promotes a better draw down of material from the hopper.
