2020 Kuhn Knight PXL 100 Series ProSpread® 1120 Trailer Vertical

2020 Kuhn Knight PXL 100 Series ProSpread® 1120 Trailer Vertical

Designed for agricultural and commercial applications that process a wide array of semi-solid and solid materials. With truck and trailer models available, and three discharge options, the PXL 100 spreaders are highly customizable to meet the needs of your operation.

The new KUHN Knight PXL 100 Series ProSpread® apron box spreaders are high-capacity, commercial spreaders that provide producers with a reliable, heavy-duty machine designed for high usage. The PXL 100 Series spreaders, with heaped capacities ranging from 865-1,230 ft³, are KUHN's largest box spreaders to date, and have been designed for agricultural and commercial applications that process a wide array of semi-solid and solid materials.

All three PXL models are available as trailer models, while the PXL 185 and 1100 are also available as truck-mounted models. With three discharge options, horizontal beaters, VertiSpread® vertical beaters or an AccuSpread® spinner discharge, these spreaders will efficiently spread a broad range of materials giving you the ultimate versatility to match your operation's needs. This new Series of spreaders also features a rugged tandem or tridem undercarriage, cushioned tongue suspension, guillotine endgate and reversible apron.

The PXL 100 Series features a 10-gauge sidewall, all-steel welded construction that provides a solid framework. A sidewall flare increases ease of loading and allows the operator to maintain a comfortable distance from the unit while loading. This design also allows the sidewalls to be supported by fewer, yet stronger exterior uprights.

An A-frame assembly keeps the sides and beater panels correctly aligned for strong box integrity, especially when the beater module is removed.

The PXL 100 Series features a stout undercarriage to withstand heavy loads. Steerable axles come standard on tridem axles. The PXL can be equipped with 600/55R radial flotation tires. All PXL units are equipped with standard hydraulically activated drum brakes. Brakes provide added protection for both the machine and the operator, especially in hilly conditions.

Rubber springs, located on the tongue, provide a cushioned suspension that protects the unit and tractor from potential shocks due to loading and traveling. This results in longer life and reduced wear for both the unit and tractor drawbar, and results in a better working experience for the operator.

A 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 floors. The multi-piece design allows for expansion or contraction with changing temperatures. The poly floor also reduces winter freeze-down issues versus a steel floor.

All three PXL models are available as trailer models, while the PXL 185 and 1100 are also available as truck-mounted models. For users who already have access to a power unit, a trailer model can be the perfect match. Heavy-duty undercarriages provide durability and long life. Trailed spreaders can easily be disconnected, leaving your power unit available for other applications.

A truck-mounted machine is a good choice for those of you who want faster, more convenient travel for longer hauls. Truck-mounted spreaders also increase operator comfort and are more maneuverable, especially when backing into tight areas.
