Material Spreader Attachment Options Overview

Overview: There are many different methods of attaching the material spreaders to different types of trucks. This allows the user to have the freedom to choose the system they are most comfortable with using. 

Directions: 
1) The user must decide how they wish to mount the spreader to their truck. The specifications listed later in this section describe the pros and cons to the different axle and frame mounting systems. Each of these systems also have optional components such as different tow bars and frame brackets for transporting the material spreader to the job site. J. Pyott and Associates will help you determine which system is right for you. 
2) Since nearly every truck is different, a few simple questions need to be answered and measurements must be taken to custom fit the tow mount to your truck. 
3) The questions and measurements will be used to manufacture the parts and instructions that will help you to mount the system to your truck.
