Meyers - Model MS570 - Compost Spreader
The Model MS570 Compost Spreader by Meyer`s comes equipped with a standard rock guard to mitigate the risk of large rocks and debris impacting the tractor cab. It adheres to the specifications outlined in the ASAE 324.2 JUL2018, which employs a dual rating method for calculating the volumetric capacity of open-top manure spreaders with hydraulic gates. The design ensures efficient distribution of compost, making it suitable for large-scale agricultural applications. This model is optimized for durability and performance under heavy-duty operations, enabling reliable and consistent spreading. Its engineering focuses on reducing downtime and maintenance while maximizing operational efficiency.
All Solid Poly Box
Our box features a 1/2" thick High Density Solid Poly Floor and 3/4" thick Solid Poly sides for easy cleaning and minimal freeze up. Also, less friction means less force needed to pull the load off. The hydraulic end gate and front panel are also lined with poly.
Beaters
Our 485 Compost spreader comes standard with two 20-1/2” horizontal beaters, two 40” bottom spinner discs & knives.
55 Series CAT 6 80° CV PTO Drive Shaft
The constant velocity universal joint allows smooth machine operation through a wide range of motion. The CV delivers constant power by self-canceling torque and speed fluctuations typically found in single cardan-type universal joints. The HP rating from this drive shaft gives you more than enough power to chew through those tough loads.
Ø1-3/4"-20 Spline (1000 RPM)
Automatic Over-Running Clutch
An automatic clutch built in to the rear PTO drive shaft offers a level of implement overload protection not possible with other types of clutches. The compact, efficient design disconnects the power source from the drivetrain when overload occurs, and does not reconnect until the speed is reduced to near-zero. During disengagement, the patented design does not allow or generate damaging torque spikes or heat. An audible clattering noise alerts the operator when it has disconnected. A built-in overrunning feature allows the beaters to coast to a stop when the PTO is disengaged.
Pintle Chain Apron
The 88C pintle apron chain is our standard apron on this unit. The open barrel design helps eliminate material buildup in the root of the sprockets and feature smoother operation, uniform link wear and greater resistance to fatigue. All heattreated parts and quad-staked pins. The 88C is a heavier version of the 667XH that comes standard on some of our other units.
The 88C Pintle Channel is 2” Wide x 1” Tall x 3/16” Thick
Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Apron DriveAn In-Line Parallel Shaft Gear Reducer with a 38.7:1 ratio drives a massive Ø2-3/4" shaft. Very high efficiency and torque. No worm gear also means less heat and more durability, along with better seal & lube life. Bevel and cylindrical forged gears made from the best material available today. Manufactured by BERMA, a world leader.
Hydraulic drive is standard with built-in overload relief protection. Provides variable unloading speeds to match load, ground speed, or application rate requirements.
Available control options include standard tractor-operated flow control, a manual flow control valve with "twist hose", or an electric flow ontrol valve with a control box located in the tractor cab.
Can be ordered with either the compost head or pen-pack head (shown in photo)
Optional Scale Kit
Keep track of how much you are spreading with an optional scale kit system by Digi-Star. The 5 point load cell system offers accurate weight readings to a variety of indicators.
