Product Overview

The Chapin 150 lb. Tow Behind Spreader 8620B is designed to eliminate the hassle of reaching a lever to stop seed or fertilizer from spilling. It helps to prevent burning of lawns and turf and eliminates waste. It features a unique dual impeller design that allows material to spread if the vehicle is in motion and automatically stops when not in motion. This high-quality spreader has a capacity of 150 pounds and protects its load from shock and impact with its 14 inch pneumatic wheels. For precise application, it has an easy to set gate adjustment with 11 incremental settings. Oil impregnated bearings are used to lessen friction on gearbox and axle.

*Please Note:  This spreader is NOT recommended for use with lime products such as pelletized lime, lime powder, and Agri lime.

    Chapin Tow Behind Speader

    By Chris on 09/23/2022

    Loved the product well built and one of the better spreaders I've bought in years past. The fact this spreader has brass bushings verses plastic is a plus and grease fittings for long lasting performance. I recommend this product to others.

    The gear box is junk!

    By Michaelz on 04/29/2024

    The spreader is great when working. Read the reviews on Chapin's own website about the gearbox, it is terrible and will seize up after the 1 year warranty. At least domyown does carry this part for 72 dollars with shipping, I know I bought another its my second one so if you buy this spreader order a couple of extra gearboxes you will need them.
