2017 Highway Equipment Company Model P Deicing Spreader

Looking for big power in small spaces? Check out the Model P deicing spreader, built for accuracy in the tightest spots municipalities tackle. In parking lots, schools, parks, alleys, intersections and more, the Model P delivers accuracy on trucks rated at 8600 GWR. Spread free-flowing materials like sand, salt or a mixture of both. Advanced available features like an inverted V that mounts in fixed or swinging position take the Model P to the next level.

• Mounts on flatbed or pickup truck

• Secured with four 2 inch (5.1 cm) 3,300 lb. (1,497 kg) nylon rachet hold-down straps

• 5 hp Briggs & Stratton or 11 hp Honda engine

In-cab controls for the Model P include electric throttle with choke indicator light, conveyor start/stop switch and engine start/stop function.

With a heavy-duty 12-gauge body and 10-gauge bottom assembly, the Model P stands up to the toughest road conditions. The hopper body is primed and painted with two finish coats of Hi-Way yellow plural-component urethane paint and then oven cured for maximum durability. All bolt-on components are painted with Hi-Way black urethane, oven cured and assembled.

Designed for continuous, uninterrupted material movement, the Model P’s advanced conveyor system features a self-cleaning pintle chain conveyor with 3/16 x ¾ inch (4.8 mm x 19 mm) chain bars positioned on 5 inch (12.7 cm) centers. The spinner has three adjustable and one fixed external baffles. Two internal baffles control material placement on the spinner.

The best results only come with the most precisely manufactured equipment. Advanced product techniques like laser cutting and slot-and-tab design create self-centering components like the material divider and spinner frame. Precision on the back end translates to precision on the front lines, and a machine that maintains a consistent drop point for precise product placement.
