INTRODUCTION
Congratulations. You have just purchased an advanced spreader from C-Dax Ltd. C-Dax Ltd is committed to
providing you, the farmer, with quality applicating systems.
DESCRIPTION
The C-Dax C-DIT400 is a ground-driven spreader designed for application of pelleted fertilisers. It can also
be used for application of other products such as grass seed and magnesium oxide. The uniquely designed
400-litre translucent non-corrosive polyethylene hopper is specially profiled for good product flow and ease of
filling. The convenient polyethylene cover is easy to remove, install and store if not required. A high-quality
stainless steel agitator and shutter ensures even flow of product to the spinner. A unique spinner design
ensures wide, even spread of products over 180 degrees (Urea). The heavy-duty galvanised frame is fitted
with knobbly turf tyres as standard equipment. The drive train uses high quality steel and a double sealed
self-aligning bearing and heavy-duty gearbox for maximum durability. While seated, the operator has access
to the control handle. This handle allows disengagement and engagement of the clutch and setting of
product feed rate all in one motion. Also standard are mudguards, swivel tow-hitch and a fully shrouded
polyethylene front deflector to further protect the operator from product being thrown off the spinner.
