Evening all,

I do a bit of muck spreading for smaller customers, horsey folk, where 10t Bunnings cant get to etc etc.

At the moment, I have this...

It's ok, but not heavy duty enough, and not big enough. (However, I'm not looking for massive, as it defeats the object of the thing!)

So, On my wish list is...

Not Rotaspreader
80hp Driven
4 / 5 tons capacity?
Not mega money.

Does such a machine exist? And if so, what is it? Have I got the perfect machine for what I want (or as good as it gets anyway...?)

Depends how much your looking to spend SIP make muck spreaders for the small alpine areas which are light footed and aimed at the tonnage your looking to spread.

You won't get much better than the spreader you now have .. you do have a good load on . Are spares still available as SKH are long gone

These might be a bit over budget but many are still used in Southern Europe
