Chapin 8700A: 680 Cubic Inch Chest Mounted Turf Spreader with Padded Shoulder Strap & Spread Control

Chest-mounted shoulder spreaders are designed for smaller lawns and spaces. It’s easy to maneuver in tight spaces where a broadcast or drop spreader just can’t go. Chapin’s 8700A chest-mounted seed and fertilizer spreader fits over your shoulder so you can comfortably walk with it. The wide mouth opening on the poly hopper allows you easily fill it without spilling and because the hopper is fully enclosed, your product stays dry. The large volume hopper spreads up to 680 cubic inches of fertilizer or seed. Set the gate adjustment to direct spread pattern and use the side baffle to easily control the spread width. The four-position gate opening allows you to spread a variety of different sized materials and the padded shoulder strap makes it comfortable to wear. This unit not recommended for use with sand and sand mixes.
