9 Tonne Combo
Tough and versatile.
With the same practical design and easy to use operation that all SAM’s are known for, the SAM Combo Spreaders (800 Series) provide extra versatility around what you are able to spread.
They are capable of spreading chemical fertiliser including; superphosphate, urea and lime. But will also spread most organic product like chicken and pig manure, screw-pressed effluent and sand.
Available with capacities of 4, 5, 6 and 8 tonne. All come standard with an 800mm floor belt and are generally tandem axle.
Keep it simple with a standard hydraulic clutch to ground drive, or upgrade to the latest smart, accurate e-Spreader with weigh scales.
Smart features
-
More stainless for longevity
Majority stainless at the rear of the machine, extends longevity of gear where you need it most. The stainless discs are run via enclosed stainless spinner tubes and two well-proven hydraulic motors. Easily adjustable tapered roller bearings keep disks tight.
-
Industry leading coating protection system
All chassis's on SAM Spreaders have seen a new evolution of painting procedure. This is for extra corrosion protection. Firstly a blast then a thermal-arc spray followed by the SAM coating difference. It is mega tough stuff!
-
Strong plastic bin
The polyethelyne plastic bin has proven to be extremely reliable. They are strong, corrosion resistant and UV-stabilised. Fertiliser also slips down the sides and washes off easily when you are cleaning your gear.
-
Even, accurate spread
The SAM twin spinner disc design gives an accurate and consistent spread pattern across a range of products. Quick and simple rate setting is by adjusting the rear door.
-
Computer control system
You can also add a computer control system to replace the standard ground drive. This gives hydraulic floor speed rate and control. More info below.
-
Rubber floor-belt (800mm wide)
Provides a positive non-slip feed of fertiliser onto the spinner discs. A smooth two-ply rubber floor-belt is riveted to hot-dip galvanised steel bars, welded to high-tensile chain. Stainless skirts run alongside.
-
Material agitator
This optional extra is designed to break up and crumble organic material like screw pressed effluent. This improves the flow to fall consistently onto the spinner discs.
-
Remote axle greasing
Remote axle greasing saves you time and effort by giving you access to all axle greasing points. They are raised together in a bank in an easy to reach location. A very effective way to improve machine maintenance, without having to jump under your machine. So keep that gear greased - no excuses!
-
Swivel coupling adds stability
Swivel couplings are now standard. They are great for varied terrain. You can choose a donut eye for coupling with a quick hitch or the insert option for tractor coupling.
-
Safety steps
Provide strong, stable stepping points and grip bar for extra safety. They are included as standard in the 8 & 9 Tonne models.

Roll-top cover
Upgrade to an easy to use roll top cover. This is a simple canvas, frame and bungy system. The handle rolls your cover up, tucked out of the way when not in use.
It is mounted on the rear of the machine so you can load from both sides.
Internal mesh
This mesh fits inside your bin. It helps to prevent lumpy urea upsetting your spread rate and it also stops large objects dropping down and damaging the belt and gear. Great for spreading crusty Urea.
Quick cover
This cover concertinas from front to back. Simply wind the handle.
Load cells
Computer drive (e-Spreader & Topcon)
Load cells are added to any computer controlled machine. It is really the only way to get true accuracy because you are actually weighing the product in the bin.
Smart e-Spreader
Any SAM Spreader can be upgraded to an e-Spreader at the time of build. The floor speed is controlled from a screen in your tractor cab. This replaces the manual drive. You can set your rate easily from in your cab and get your spread rate very accurate.
The SAM e-Spreader is super easy to calibrate and every e-Spreader has load cells. Fitting load cells is the only way to get true accuracy because you are weighing your product. This technology means the correct application rate is applied regardless of changes in forward speed.
It also integrates easily with third party GPS systems such as TracMap. You can see how many hectares you have covered from the screen and the weight you have applied. This live data means proof of placement is easy. If you are already using a third party tracking system you don’t have to reinvent the wheel!
80 - 90 l/min of oil flow from your tractor is preferred.
Ask us about the new ISOBUS compatibility upgrade.
Topcon control
Adding the new Topcon computer control system means the correct application rate is applied regardless of changes in forward speed or changes in product density.
By adding the load weigh scales too, the weight of product in the bin is integrated, allowing dynamic rate control. It is continuously using the weight of product in the bin to check spread rate accuracy.
This computer control system is ISOBUS compatible so can function with the majority of modern tractor consoles.
Brakes
Brakes are available for tandem axle machines. They are usually located on the front hubs only. The brake system chosen had been well-proven over the years and is very reliable.
LED Lights & flags
If you are using your machine on the road you will need a set of lights and flags. The flexi mounting boards are made from durable plastic, hardy for knocks and general wear and tear.
Weatherproof lights are LED and plug directly into your power source.
Material agitator
The material agitator is designed to break-up, lift and tumble materials in a gentle but thorough blending action. This process, ideal for organic material and manure, allows for consistent flow onto the spinner disks.
Mudguards
Mudguards are moulded from UV-stabilised polyethylene, and resistant to most chemical and organic fertilisers. Debris chips to the chassis and running gear are reduced and less cleaning required.
Mudguards come standard on all tandem axle models below 8 tonne. They are an optional extra for 8 and 9 tonne models. POA
Tyre upgrade
We have tough high performing tyres to suit any application. They are chosen for their quality and durability.
We can change tyre sizes to suit your specific needs. The 5 tonne tandem combos use 11.5 x 15.3 tyres but these can be upgraded to larger 400 x 15.5 tyres. The 400 x 15.5 tyres are standard on the 6 tonne combos but can be upgraded to the 500 x 17 tyres.
500/60 x 22.5 tyres are standard on all 8 and 9 tonne models. These larger tyres can be excellent if you have softer, wetter conditions.
Custom options are also available POA.
Skid
If you are using your machine with a quick hitch you will want to include a skid on the drawbar.
Please also specify that you would like a donut eye on your tow eye.
Auto drive chain tensioner
Drive on-road without removing drive chain.
Stainless steel hydraulic hose fittings
Higher grade hydraulic hose fittings for rust protection.
Safety chains
13mm safety chains can be added for towing peace of mind. 10mm also available.
