Art's Way X550 Manure Spreader

BIG SPREADING POWER PACKED IN A SMALL BOX
We brought the same industry leading spread pattern to producers in a smaller capacity box built for your lots. With a box length of 30 feet, easily maneuver in and out of gates. Operate your floor chain speed and gate height to achieve the amount per acre for best nutrient management.

CAPACITY
Wheel hubs are the center for the durability of our boxes. Rated at 15,000 pounds per hub, the X550 can carry 33,000 pounds of manure. The box has a heaped capacity of 551 cubic feet.

WHEELS AND TIRES
The X550 Manure Spreader comes standard with a tandem axle. Choose Used Truck or Military tires or upgrade to a 600 series flotation tire option to minimize field compaction. Litter scoops are installed from the factory to give you more lift with lighter material such as chicken litter.

POWER
This size of spreader requires a 175 hp tractor. In this range, you can choose either a “small” 1-3/8 1000 RPM PTO or a “large” 1-3/4″ 1000 RPM PTO to make best use of your equipment.

SPREAD
The beaters are a model SRT8 angled underneath the floor to give maximum sizing and spread width.

DEPENDABLE
Our 88C chain boasts a limited lifetime warranty so you know you are always covered while in use. Our unique reversible chain feature gives you the opportunity to move the load away from the beaters to remove any foreign objects. Robust all tube steel slats provide additional durability while moving more and more manure.

RUGGED BOX BUILD
Densilite floors have minimal thermal expansion and contraction for less cracking and buckling with temperature changes. Better yet, it creates a slick surface for enhanced material flow. 2 inch uprights on 2 foot centers provide a strong structure for hauling.

FILL QUICKLY WITH A SKID STEER
Easy filling with low loading heights of 82 inches on our X550 with used military tires. The flared sides allow you to easily load material from the side over the wheel to decrease material loss and load time.

TRANSPORT SAFETY
Bright LED lights, a strong safety chain and convenient heavy-duty jack make you more visible and secure on the road. Move manure wisely.

OPERATOR PROTECTION
A heavy-duty rock guard is mounted on the front for maximum protection. Because safety is a front and back proposition.

OPERATOR CONVENIENCE
Slip resistant and color-coded hydraulic grips make hooking up a breeze. A bolt tensioning system allows for in-the-field chain adjustment. Grease points maintain smooth machine operation and can be easily accessed.
