Buyers Products HVC05 Spreader Controller

Product Description

The Buyers Products HVC05 is an electric/hydraulic spreader controller designed for use with material spreading equipment on service trucks and dump bodies. The unit provides individual control channels for both the spinner and auger functions, along with a dedicated blast button for on-demand material surges. At 1.93 pounds and compact enough for cab-mount installation, this controller is built for working vehicles where space and durability both matter. It is typically installed by fleet maintenance technicians or equipment operators familiar with 12-volt truck upfitting.

This controller is suited for municipal, contractor, and private fleet applications where hydraulic or electric spreaders are used for sand, salt, or other granular material distribution. It fits into seasonal road maintenance operations, de-icing routes, and construction site material spreading. The individual spinner and auger adjustments allow the operator to dial in spread pattern and material flow independently, which is especially useful when switching between material types or road conditions.

Key Features

• Individual control settings for spinner and auger for independent rate adjustment
• Dedicated blast button for immediate high-volume material delivery
• Compact housing suited for in-cab or console mounting
• Compatible with electric and hydraulic spreader systems

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified truck upfitter or fleet technician familiar with 12-volt vehicle electrical systems. Disconnect vehicle power before wiring or mounting the controller to prevent shorts or component damage. Secure the unit to a stable surface within operator reach and ensure all cable connections are properly terminated and protected from moisture. Follow the vehicle and spreader manufacturer wiring diagrams throughout installation.
