Maschio Gaspardo Introduces Fertilizer Spreader

January 26, 2015

Maschio Gaspardo introduces the Primo series, its new electronic fertilizer spreader with weighing controls to ensure maximum precision during distribution. Available in 8 models, Primo has working widths of about 78-118 feet.



PRIMO presents many innovations:

  • Independent activation/stop of distribution
  • Independent electronic rate system
  • Double-shutter opening section, to limit “dose effect” (the reduction of uniformity in distribution)
  • Electronic rate control with loading cell


The double-shutter and the electronic dosage system allow a precise fertilizer distribution on the field and the hopper capacity can be easily expanded.

Primo's features also include:

  • Fertilizer-moving system, with spinning and rotating device
  • Stainless spreading discs easy to replace and perfectly balanced in order to reduce vibrations
  • A boundary spreading system to achieve the desired rate even on fields heads and borders
  • Completely greased lubricated transmission (no maintenance)
  • Heavy-duty frame: PRIMO is made in high tensile steels and multi-layer paint


PRIMO is also available in a mechanical version, with manual rate system adjustment and hydraulic double-shutter opening section.
