The RO-XL is the high capacity model of the RotaFlow range. The heavy duty construction of the RO-XL makes it possible to carry up to a maximum of 3.450 or 3.900 litres of fertiliser with three extension rims. Easy setting and adjustment can be done with the FlowPilot on each spreading disc. An innovative drive line to each disc ensures gentle agitation due to the “slow rotating” agitator system, which runs at 15% of the spreading disc speed. Both discs can be shut off independently to spread half the working width, essential for preventing lodging in tapering headlands.

Vicon RO-XL
The Vicon RO-XL with volumes up to 3900 litres and with a maximum spreading width of 54m is the perfect spreader for more capacity. With dual PTO input shafts on the centre gearbox, it is easy to always drive at the desired speed. Additionally, in combination with the ‘slow rotating’ agitator system, the RO-XL spreader can spread with high disc speeds to get a very even spreading pattern. The RO-XL can be operated hydraulically or electrically. The electric controlled spreader can be operated from the tractor cab via the Comfort Control II computer.
Features
RotaFlow Principle
No impact, no fragmentation, no dust: Central release point, smooth acceleration and centrifugal force accelerates fertiliser up to disc speed before it reaches the vane.
Accurate spreading pattern
A double overlap spreading pattern gives unrivalled accuracy. The 8 vanes per discs are ensuring a continuous flow of fertiliser to the field. This is important for high capacity spreading and forward speed.
Guaranteed accuracy on slopes
The fertiliser always contacts the vanes at the same point, also on slopes and travels the complete length of the vane.
Consistent spreading pattern
Consistent spreading pattern: Eight vanes per disc, eight sectors per revolution give an equal distribution. Double overlap spreading pattern.
FlowPilot
The compact FlowPilot 'dashboard' gives you considerably simplified accurate setting and adjustment of application rates. Two hydraulically operated metering plates, each with three discharge openings ensure an equal fertiliser flow from the hopper to the spreading discs.
Border Spreading
Vicon offers the TrimFlow system or manual/hydraulic border spreading plate for border spreading. The TrimFlow can be accurately set for all types of fertiliser and for all working widths. Operation is easy, no need to leave the tractor seat. For the RO-M GEOSPREAD, RO-XL, RO-EDW and RO-XXL GEOSPREAD (iDC) models the TrimFlow can even be fitted on the left- and right-hand side of the spreader.
Hydraulic Drive
A Central Hydraulic Drive is as option available for spreading without PTO shaft, for the RO-XL, RO-EDW and RO-EDW/RO-XXL GEOSPREAD.
Hopper extensions
Easy to assemble aluminum hopper extensions are available to increase hopper capacity.
