THRIVE IN WINTER
WITH THE COMPACT CHOICE

Some call it a snowstorm, but you call it a good day’s work with the compact FISHER® TEMPEST™ stainless steel hopper spreaders. Engineered for compact vehicles, including UTVs and half-ton pickups, the compact TEMPEST hopper line delivers heavy-duty reliability with 0.35 cu yd and 0.7 cu yd capacity models. Choose between the precision of the HELIXX™ auger material delivery system for bulk rock salt or the pintle chain material delivery system for dense sand or salt/sand mixes. Invest in the TEMPEST compact stainless steel hoppers to maximize your operation this winter.

Hopper spreaders require bolting to the truck frame for proper operator safety.

Hopper Construction

  • Stainless steel design utilizes high strength rivets and bolts, instead of welding, for a sleek, professional appearance and rugged durability
  • Steel top screen breaks up material during loading to prevent clogging and bridging
  • Plug accessories directly into the hub at the back of the hopper for automatic spreader control integration, no need for extra wiring

Chute Design

  • Baffles maximize coverage efficiency and eliminate material waste with a consistent, optimized spread pattern
  • Precisely channels material to the spinner for an effective throw that clears the vehicle’s bumper
  • High-torque direct drive motor delivers superior power while simplifying your maintenance routine
  • Features an IP-68 rated, weather-proof power plug with a positive-latch mechanism to maintain a vibration-resistant connection
HELIXX™ Auger Technology
HELIXX Auger Technology

HELIXX™ Auger Technology

Patented corkscrew material delivery system is optimized to operate in the target range for rock salt spreading best practices. The auger has multiple pitches to help promote smooth, even material flow from the hopper and prevents bridging. The shaftless technology reduces drag on the motor and reduces the overall load on the electrical system.

* Auger Models Only (S035A & S070A)

Universal Features

Every FISHER spreader includes
12v motor

Electric Motor

Dual high-torque 12-volt electric motors provide quiet, reliable, and independent control of the conveyor and spinner. Both are fully sealed from the elements and protected from corrosion, with the spinner in a weather-resistant housing.    
dump switches and work light switches

Dump & Work Light Switches

Rear-mounted dump switches allow operators to safely offload material or fill walk-behind spreaders. A third switch is also provided to control the accessory work light from both the cab and the rear of the hopper.
