THE McIntosh & Son Merredin branch certainly made it worthwhile for growers who attended their machinery demonstration day, displaying a wide range of farm machinery and vehicles available through their dealership and franchises including the Agri-Spread AS 2150T SC and Highline NT78 Rockpicker by Waringa Agriculture.

Waringa WA sales and service manager, Mike Christey, said this particular model of Agri-Spread had been out for around a year and offered sectional control as a new function.

“It also now has front, twin belts, which are more accurate than traditional single belts and save product and money,” Mr Christey said.

“It has a positive drive belt system that eliminates wear, tear and slippage.”

He said the new valve blocks ran power beyond the belt block and it was a machine with very easy maintenance and sturdy construction.

“It has a very strong chassis,” Mr Christey said.

“It is also very accurate, with sectional control running through the tractor’s GPS system, and auto shut-off contributing to the all over ease of operation.

“Parts are also readily available through McIntosh & Son and we have great backup service , which is an added benefit and makes them more appealing.”

This is a new product for Waringa and McIntosh & Son this year.

Mr Christey said they are heading out the door as soon as they come in.

“It is really simple to operate,” Mr Christey said.

“It is all hydraulically driven from the cab.

“Durability is very good, it has very strong construction.

“Highline is also a very trusted name, coming from Canada and is very competitive on pricing.”
