Bauman Model 1040B

Finger Bar

A unique polymer finger bar has a flexible memory in cold weather and retains its shape. The bar defines pressure and helps release an even quantity of de-icing material as seen with the cross hatch pattern when material is dropped.

Sand / Salt Drum

The rotating distributor drums spread de-icing material in an even and consistent cross hatch pattern. De-icing material can then "creep" and spread out which results in an efficient use of material.

Spread Pattern

The rotating distributor drums spread de-icing material in an even and consistent cross hatch pattern.

Galvanized Grate & Lifting Lug

The grate prevents larger pieces of material from entering the hopper. As a safety measure, it further prevents human contact with the agitator. The lifting lug is used to maintain the grate’s security, and to safely install or remove unit from tractor.

Serviceable Bearings

Agitator Bar

The agitator bar rotates in the hopper to help keep salt and sand from bridging or clumping. The bar ensures the material passes through to the drum and then to the ground for an even application.

Tension Lever Assembly

The assembly regulates the rate of flow for different types of material (i.e.: fine sand vs coarse salt). The lever allows for fine tuning of the rate of flow of material.

Hydraulic Flow Control

Flow control is included to reduce hydraulic flow from the tractor to the distribution drum. It allows the operator to control distribution quantity.
