The HM-500-HARV, is a 500 Gallon Hydroseeder with mechanical (paddle) agitation. It is available as both a skid type and a pull type system. It will seed 6600 square feet per load. It is equipped with a 23.5 H. P. Kohler Command Pro electric start engine, a hydraulically driven paddle agitation that is reversible and also has adjustable speed. It has a hydraulically driven reversible Bowie gear pump.
The HM-500-HARV has a long life poly tank that eliminates rust and makes clean up quick and easy. The aggressive paddles allow It to mix heavy slurries of any hydro seeding materials including paper or wood hydroseeding mulch, Bonded Fiber Matrix products (BFM’s) and Flexible Growth Media (Flexterra). The poly tank allows much faster clean up and will eliminate the major problem with many mechanical hydroseeders, “Rust”
- Platform and exclusive multi position gun standard Do large areas faster Carry more supplies,
- Hydraulically powered positive displacement gear pump lets you use more hose than other units.
- Hydraulically powered paddle agitation, control both speed and direction hydraulically.
- 50 Gallon Flush tank. Clean up at the end of the day in two minutes.
- The HARV can self unplug most suction line clogs, an exclusive feature of HARV
- Run a little short to finish a job. Water from the flush tank can be used for a mini load.
- HARV is one of the best units for those who need to use BFM’s
The HARV will handle up to 200 pounds of paper mulch and up to 175 pounds of 100% virgin wood fiber mulch It will pump through 300′ or more of hose. It is capable of self filling from a pond or a stream with the optional fill hose. Mixing is mechanical with an aggressive 16 paddle agitator. A major advantage of the unit is the poly tank. Poly tanks are totally rust resistant. One of the major problems with mechanical hydroseeding units or hydro mulching units is their susceptibility to rust. Even with a stainless steel tank rust is an issue and will start in the welds.
The HM-500-HARV comes with 100′ of 1 1/2″ discharge hose with free flow couplings, a gun and three nozzles ( 1 wide hydro seeding nozzle, 1 straight distance nozzle, and 1 trim nozzle), The empty weight of the unit is 2300 pounds. the loaded weight is 7,300 pounds. the physical dimensions are 69″W x 114″L x 108″H. The size of the skid frame on this unit is 45″W x 115″L.
The HM-500-HARV is ideal for residential and commercial seeding, roadside work, erosion control work, and any hydroseeding job Full bales can be loaded into the units. Mixing time is 2 – 10 minutes. Discharge distance with the straight nozzle is approximately 80′. The spray distance with the 2″ cannon) is 100′.
