## Overview

Designed with an ergonomic flip-up handle and enclosed gearbox, it ensures durability and ease of use.

## Description

Designed for residential use, Chapin’s 81008A 80-pound residential salt/ice melt spreader has a weather-resistant poly hopper to fill with your preferred ice melt, halite or small particulates. Supported on a powder-coated steel frame with the ergonomically designed bail system and U-shaped flip up handle, it’s simple to operate and holds up season-after-season. The baffles adjust for edge control and the pneumatic tires handle uneven ground. This unit is not recommended for rock salt, sand or sand mixes. A spiked auger helps tear up clumps and keeps the ice melt moving freely. Made in the USA with global materials and backed by Chapin’s 2-year limited warranty.

## Features

- 80-POUND POLY HOPPER: rust-resistant, weather-resistant, blue poly hopper is supported on a powder-coated steel frame; enclosed acetal gearbox keeps the gears protected from harsh weather
- U-SHAPED ERGONOMIC FLIP-UP HANDLE: limited assembly with the U-shaped handle, it simply flips up when removed from the box; comfortable to grip with gloves and push while spreading ice melt and salt products
- MADE IN THE USA WITH GLOBAL MATERIALS: designed and produced in the USA with US-based customer service and technical support, located at Chapin’s home base in Batavia, NY; backed by Chapin’s 2-year limited warranty
- SPIKED AUGER: rugged, plastic spiked auger breaks up clumps so your preferred salt or ice melt can easily flows through the gate opening
- ADJUSTABLE SETTINGS: use the gate lever to change the gate opening based on the particulates; recommended for use with salt, halite, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride and calcium chloride (small and pelletized particulates); use the baffles for direct the spread where it’s needed and save money from wasted product
- TIRES AND ACCESSORIES: wide-tread, 10-inch pneumatic tires to move over uneven ground; rain/snow cover included to protect salt/ice melt while spreading and salt grate to help filter larger clumps from clogging up at the auger
- NOTE: not recommended for use with rock salt products, sand or sand mixes, pelletized lime, lime or lime powders
