Precision material placement with a slinger
Rent an all-terrain material slinger and put stone, sand, soil or mulch where you want it, controlled by remote from the best vantage point.
Maximum reach
Hopper capacity
Conveyor rotation
Material size
Put material where it belongs the first time
Material dropped in the wrong place costs you twice: once to deliver it and again to move it. Around finished work, equipment and crews, that extra handling can also be difficult to do safely.
A slinger lets the operator direct material from a distance. Position the machine, stand where you can see the target and use the radio remote to control where the material goes.
Why use a slinger for precise placement?
Control by remote
Choose the best vantage point for your safety and accuracy.
Swing without moving
The placing conveyor rotates through 270°, which means less repositioning.
Change direction
An optional 90° deflection plate is available for the conveyor.
Stay level
Automatic leveling helps keep the machine stable and feeding on uneven ground.
Avoid rework
Reduce overfilling, cleanup and piles that need to be moved again.
Reach past obstacles
Place material over walls, foundations and landscaping, up to 140 feet away.
Where precise placement matters
Around foundations and walls
Place material without driving equipment through the work area.
Between pipes and structures
Direct material around obstacles on busy sites.
Landscaping
Place topsoil, mulch and similar materials where they’re needed.
Limited-access projects
Work on urban and residential sites where space is tight.
Precision placement questions
How accurate is a slinger?
It depends on the material, the distance and the operator. Tell us about your job and we’ll help you decide if a slinger is the right fit.
Who controls where the material goes?
Your operator, using the radio remote. We provide training and support.
Can I aim without moving the machine?
Yes. The conveyor rotates through 270°, so you can change direction from where the machine is parked.
Can I place material around buildings or landscaping?
Yes. You direct the material from the remote, so you can place it around obstacles instead of driving equipment over them.
Can it place mulch for landscaping?
Yes. It handles any 3" minus material, including mulch, soil, sand and stone.
Will my crew still need to spread by hand?
Placing material where it’s needed cuts down on moving it again by hand. Some jobs still need a final rake to grade.
Job example
One slinger for an entire site
On a busy foundation site packed with forms, rebar and conduit, a single slinger handled the material placement for the whole job. From one radio remote, the operator put sand exactly where each form needed it, working around the obstacles instead of driving equipment through them.
