2025 Kuhn PSC 100 Series 181 Trailer
A Heavy-Duty Spreader for a Heavy-Duty WorkloadThe KUHN Knight PSC Series sets the standard for durability and versatility in the commercial box spreader class. Offering truck and trailer models across the line, with three discharge options, these high-capacity spreaders will efficiently spread a broad range of materials.
Features may include:
Heavy-Duty Undercarriage- The heavy-duty undercarriage on trailer models provides a solid foundation to haul the heaviest loads. The rugged tandem axle adds strength and durability. It also provides greater flotation and more oscillating capability over uneven terrain to help limit soil compaction. Standard, two-wheel hydraulic disc brakes on the PSC 171 and 181 provide a reliable braking system.
- An all-steel construction provides the backbone and solid framework for these spreaders. This simple, yet effective design keeps the sides and beater panels aligned for the life of the machine. The all-welded construction includes a reinforced tongue that pulls directly from the axle for added strength and durability. An A-frame assembly keeps the sides and beater panels correctly aligned for strong box integrity. A round-tube bottom, on the rear, promotes self-cleaning by helping prevent material breakup.
- The heavy-duty dual apron on PSC 100 Series models provides dependability for winter hauling and when spreading heavier, heaped loads. The 667 XH pintle apron chain provides increased strength to pull through the heaviest material with little worry about breakage.The dual apron features offset ½” x 1 ½” x 2” steel slats which provide more consistent feeding of material. The dual apron also offers increased rigidity and longevity for both apron chains and slats.
- A two-piece, ¾” solid poly floor provides more strength and durability than individual tongue and groove boards while reducing friction. This means that less power is required for unloading versus alternative steel or wooden floors. The poly floor provides impact resistance when dropping heavy loads into the spreader. The two-piece design allows for expansion or contraction with changing temperatures. The plastic floor also reduces winter freeze-down issues to provide trouble-free service and long life.
- Horizontal beaters are most effectively used in spreading applications with dry, coarse materials such as pen pack or yard scrapings. They work well in situations where fast unloading and high application rates are desired.
- The horizontal module on PSC 100 Series models comes standard with two, 20" beaters. Hydraulic control provides the ability to swing the beaters out conveniently from the cab.
- VertiSpread® vertical beaters provide quality spreading performance for a wider variety of dry materials, from tough materials like pen pack, to finer materials like dry dirt compost. They can provide the same fast unloading and high application rates as horizontal beaters, but with a wider spread pattern and more consistent material breakup.
- Rugged vertical beaters on PSC models provide reliable performance in difficult conditions. An extra-heavy-duty option is available, with hardened beater teeth and thicker, 1/2" flighting (3/8" standard) for enhanced durability and longer life in the most demanding commercial applications.
- The AccuSpread® spinner discharge offers consistent spreading of dry, flowable materials such as dry dirt compost, poultry litter and lime sludge.
