FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - COVER

   

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - DUAL ELECTRIC MOTORS


Cover

   
Dual Electric Motors

The overlapping poly hopper covers shield de-icing material from the elements. Its design seals out moisture, while molded grooves direct water away from the hopper, and its domed shape increases hopper capacity.

In the open position, the covers act as spill guards and protect the truck from material overflow while loading.
    The two high-torque 12-volt electric motors provide quiet, reliable and independent control over the conveyor and spinner mechanisms. The spinner motor is sealed inside a weather-resistant housing, protecting it from corrosion.
 

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - CONTROLS

   

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - CORROSION-RESISTANT HOPPER


Controls

   
Corrosion-Resistant Hopper

Enhanced dual variable-speed control allows you to precisely match material delivery and spread patterns to conditions. Four standard accessory buttons and a dedicated blast button provide optimum in-cab efficiency.

Easy-to-understand, digital self-diagnostics alert the operator when the spreader is empty or when adjustments are needed, and LEDs make the control easy to read. Its compact size compared to traditional controls fits easily into today’s modern truck cab designs.
    The proven double-walled hopper is built of durable poly for corrosion-free performance, whether using rock salt, calcium chloride, sand or any other type of de-icing material.
 

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - MATERIAL DELIVERY

   

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - SPINNER


Material Delivery

   
Spinner

One of the widest in the industry, the 15 ½" pintle chain conveyor moves more material consistently and smoothly to help reduce bridging. Corrosion-resistant stainless steel guides provides extra protection and durability.     An extra large 15 ½" polyurethane spinner delivers a spread pattern of up to 40' and provides long-lasting, corrosion-free operation.
 

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - ACCESSORY INTEGRATION

   

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - DUMP BUTTON & WORK LIGHT SWITCHES


Accessory Integration

   
Dump & Work Light Switches

Conveniently connect accessories directly into the hub mounted in the back of the hopper. Accessories automatically integrate with the hopper control without having to run additional wires from the front of the truck.     Operators can safely offload material or fill walk-behind spreaders by using the rear-mounted conveyor dump switches. An additional switch is provided so an accessory work light may be conveniently controlled from not only the cab, but also the rear of the hopper.
 

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - CHUTE ASSEMBLY

   

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - ADJUSTABLE FEED GATE


Chute Assembly

   
Adjustable Feed Gate

For precise material application, the adjustable-height chute assembly can be configured for either pickup truck or flat bed and dump body applications, ensuring you're always spreading at the optimum height.

For convenient access to the hitch or material off load, the chute assembly can be removed - no tools required.
    An adjustable feed gate provides additional control of material flow, regardless of material type, reducing waste when traveling between sites.
 

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - INVERTED V / VIBRATOR

   

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - TOP SCREEN


Inverted V / Vibrator

   
Top Screen

An inverted V is available as an accessory to help keep sufficient material weight off of the conveyor, ensuring smooth startup and flow of material.

A vibrator kit is also available as an accessory to help reduce bridging and keep material moving smoothly to the conveyor.
    A steel top screen comes standard, which helps break up large chunks of de-icing material during the loading process to prevent clogging and bridging during spreader operation.
 

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - RATCHET STRAPS

   

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - CONVENIENT STORAGE


Ratchet Straps

   
Convenient Storage

Ratchet straps are available as an accessory for additional spreader stability.     The POLY-CASTER™ hopper spreader slides easily in and out of the vehicle. The entire unit stands on end to minimize the space needed for storage.
 

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - ADDITIONAL STANDARD FEATURES

   

FISHER® POLY-CASTER™ Poly Hopper Spreader - FLEET FLEX


Additional Standard Features

   
FLEET FLEX

Molded handles and built-in tie-down loops are included for strapping the hopper to the truck. For additional safety, bolting bars are also provided to attach the hopper to the vehicle and a Center High-Mounted Stop Light (CHMSL) is standard.     The POLY-CASTER™ hopper spreader is designed with FLEET FLEX technology for easy interchangeability between electric hopper spreaders without having to change the wiring or the controls.

It provides easy operation, increased reliability, simple wiring and easy installation. Additionally, accessories automatically integrate into the control for easy plug and play.
