Working Capacity!

Bowie 1700 Hydro-Mulcher

Shown with custom white paint option.

The 1700 Hydro-Mulcher has a 1700 gallon working capacity! This Bowie Hydro-Mulcher is an ideal choice for hydroseeding your lawn projects or acreage projects . The strong mixing and agitation requires no starting and stopping or reversing of agitation to load and mix this hydro-seeder. Let the muscle of the rugged Bowie 1700 work for you. The Bowie 1700 is designed to maximize your hydro-seeder production and cut your costs. Compare the Bowie 1700 and you will clearly see the “Built Strong – Built to Last” features of this hydroseeding equipment. The strong heavy-duty construction of the 4 inch square tubing frame base shows it all starts with a strong foundation, the strong construction continues from the base to the top deck. The top deck is reinforced for carrying extra materials.

The Bowie 1700 Hydro-Mulcher has a powerful, high-torque, direct-drive mulch shredder system that is standard. This feature pulverizes mulch during the loading process. The 1700 also has three direct-drive mixing agitators. With this loading and mixing capability, the slurry can created as fast as mulch can be loaded. When mulch goes into the tank completely pulverized, it goes into solution almost instantly. This very fast loading and mixing is only possible with the powerful but simple Bowie high-torque direct-drive mixing system. Speed in mixing is priority for competitive hydro-seeders.

The Bowie 1700 costs less than its nearest competitor and offers enhancing options offered by no other competitor. Up to 25% more material can be loaded and pumped in each tank load saving you 25% in time and labor.

Now you can hydroseed faster, enjoy ease of operation and handle more material with a Bowie 1700 !
