Fairbanks-Morse Heating Distributor
"...the most advanced ideas in mechanical appliances for distributing dust layers and bituminous binders, as now used in the work of maintaining and building broken stone roads."
The seating arrangement for the operator looks rather precarious given that this apparatus was dispensing material at 275 degrees F.
The tank had 600 gal. capacity and was heated by two kerosene burners under the tank. With a full load the rig had a weight of 9000 lbs.
