Sometimes You Need A
Spreader Built Like A Tkik.
When spreading
stockpiled lime, for example.
The Stoltzfus Wet Lime Spreader is likely
the most powerful spreader of its kind on the
market today. You see, we’ve been building them
since 1945, and farmers are still using Stoltzfus
Wet Lime Spreaders they’ve had for 20, even 30
years. Our special drag chain is 4 times stronger
than stainless steel, and handles frozen and
heavy stockpiled lime with ease. Plus, for spread
ing compost, composted sludge, poultry litter
• Two-ton, five-ton, eight-ton models
• PTO, 540 rpm or 1,000 rpm
• Two-speed conveyor chain
• Leaf spring suspension
• Dual 24" spinners
• Spreads 40’effectively
• One-sided spreading capability
• Truck-mounted models available'

and certain
fertilizers, the WLS is without
equal for sheer volume spreading. We calj
that performance. You’ll call it terrific.
We hope you compare a Stoltzfus WLS with
other spreaders. It makes us look even better.
Price? Sure we may be a little more. But when
you end up replacing cheaper units in a few
short years, what have you saved? Stoltzfus
quality always pays foritself many times over.
Just how tough is a Stoltzfus WLS? Plenty
tough. Call today. We’ll tell you where to
find the dealer nearest you, and send you free
literature to inspect.
