I have a Bunning lowlander 90 with weigh cells and rate control , Its very good , spread fym and all our own layer manure with it , use rotor hood for the layer manure which helps with the spread

Agri-hire have them.
Seem to work ok when on hire.
They do sell them off.

The Bunning is also very well built , will handle fresh fym if needed ,
Definitely light years ahead of the west dual spreader we had before !

Happy with our Richard western, doesn’t have weigh cells but it spreads everything from FYM to hen litter very nicely.

Run 3 Bunning HBD’s with weigh cells 2 are on the Rds system & 1 on the topcon system. Brilliant bits of kit, very well built & will handle anything you put in them.

Sas agri have a tidy Bunning 175 advertised with weigh cells etc

how well does it handle fresh cattle muck?

Easily as long as your sensible about it & don’t try to run the bed too fast & block it up (especially if it’s very strawy) does a much better job than a vertical beater spreader as well

Our new bunning went back after 2 months and bought a Richard western instead vertical beaters and spinner deck interchangeable no weigh cells but we put proper rds weigher on the loader instead good machine and would buy another no bother

What was wrong with the bunning?

I have sold a couple of PICHON m1450’s with weighing and rate control, also have a phonic sensor on the back door so it reads what is coming to the back door, customer spreads chicken muck, compost and digestate , he says it’s extremely accurate

I've used both vertical beater machines and horizonal rotors + discs and never had an issue, you shouldn't set the bed speed flat out in any machine unless it is very very light material.

Pictures pictures, pictures (videos?) man. Had a look at a pichon tanker some time ago, look the shizz.

Looks a good spread, tyre size let’s it down. Can’t believe how many manufacturers make spreader and fit inadequate sized wheel and tyres. we had a bunning 105 with 650/85 38. Now have a bunning 150 with 680/85 32. Both need 20 psi in to carry the weight.

The last one I sold had 650’s and greedy boards on, I will try and find a pic, did look a lot better, it will get put to work ASAP , I would think nectveeek if we get the frost we are forecast!

Was gonna say, a taller tyre will make them tread lighter and also a bit easier to pull, which is important with a rear discharge cause the load diminishes on the drawbar and takes it away from the tractor as it empties?

We run 4 bunning hbd. All with weigh cells. ours are 175hbd and have jd6215r on. Power does help but we get good output and performance from the 215’s. Spread all mucks well. Shred FYM up much better than a vertical machine.
