The following general information is web-sourced and may contain variances from the subject unit:

The Western Tornado Poly Hopper Spreader is a highly efficient, heavy-duty commercial ice control system engineered specifically to slide into the bed of a 3/4-ton or 1-ton pickup truck. Built to endure harsh winter environments, it eliminates the rust and corrosion vulnerabilities inherent to traditional steel spreaders.  Key Specifications & Layout

• Hopper Material: Rugged, rust-proof, one-piece double-walled polyethylene.
• Dimensions & Fit: The 8-foot model fits standard full-size pickup beds and yields a capacity rating of up to 2.5 cubic yards (with 1.5 and 1.8 cu. yd. variants) 
• Material Delivery: Uses a heavy-duty pintle-chain conveyor system to move material smoothly toward the rear chute without bridging or clogging.
• Spinner System: Features a 15.5-inch polyurethane spinner that achieves a broad, adjustable broadcast pattern spanning from 2 to 40 feet.

Core Structural & Mechanical Features 1. Dual Electric Motors Rather than relying on noisy gas engines or complex hydraulic hookups, the system utilizes two independent 12-volt electric motors. One motor powers the heavy-duty pintle conveyor chain to feed material consistently, while the second motor spins the rear distribution spinner. This separation allows you to adjust conveyor feed rates and spinner speeds independently.  2. Advanced Weather Protection The unit includes standard, overlapping hard poly lids. These lids fit snugly over a two-piece top screen to shield your salt, sand, or bulk material mixes from rain, snow, and freezing temperatures. Spill guards prevent waste when bulk loaders drop materials over the edges.  3. Adjustable Rear Drop Chute The entire rear chute assembly adjusts vertically to accommodate different truck bed heights. It can be quickly disassembled or tilted entirely out of the way without tools for easy conveyor cleaning, hopper unloading, or when towing a trailer. An integrated dump button lets operators clear remaining material rapidly. 4. FLEET FLEX Electrical Architecture The unit is managed via an in-cab digital controller running Western's FLEET FLEX system. It provides variable speed controls, diagnostic alerts, an automatic blast feature, and ensures total wiring compatibility across other Western fleet spreaders.
