Tru-Flo™ 36D
Tow-Behind Drop Spreader
The Tru-Flo 36D was designed to drop spread topdressing material in small areas that require maneuverability. The 36D is small enough to fit into tight corners yet large enough to quickly cover any size area with a uniform coat of topdressing material.
The 36D can spread any dry, flow-able material with a moisture content up to 25%. Topdressing material can include dry sand, calcined clay, crumbed rubber, and dry bagged materials (any moist or wet materials will not spread with the Tru-Flo 36D).
This tow-behind drop spreader can be used on baseball fields, synthetic turf fields, golf greens, and other playing surfaces that need to be refaced or replenished with a topdressing type material. Other uses for the Tru-Flo 36D include residential landscapers.
Tow-behind Top Dresser Moisture Test
It’s important to note that not all materials will spread well through these topdressers. The 36D tow-behind top dresser is designed to spread material up to 25% moisture content. The way to know if your materials will spread well is by performing a simple moisture test. If your materials are dry enough that they flow freely through your fingers when you up a handful then you will be fine running that through an Earth & Turf topdresser.
