Simple, rugged, and ready whenever you are. The Hooyman Manual Chest Spreader gives you the same even, professional coverage as a powered unit with the simplicity of a manual option. Fill the 35 lb hopper, hook into the harness, and turn the crank as you walk—the proprietary throwing disc lays down a wide, consistent pattern of seed, fertilizer, lime, or salt.
The adjustable feed gate is the secret to a clean plot: open it up for large seed and granular fertilizer, or close it down for fine clover and brassica seed so you don’t burn through your bag in the first pass. A 10–20 ft throw radius covers ground fast, and because it’s hand-cranked you have total control over your rate by simply changing your walking and cranking speed.
The padded dual-strap harness with front T-slot carries the weight across your shoulders and chest instead of one strap sawing into your neck—this is worth every penny when you're using it. There is nothing else like it on the market and you will thank yourself every time you use this spreader. Re-filling has never been easier.
