You want the 402 max unless you like popping wheelies and smashing the wag tail off.
Cannot get 600 bag in though ,
and to op get one with hyd shut off

How likely are you going to want to apply 600kg on a caravan park at one time?
Thanks for your comment but I don't necessary need to put 600 kgs in nor do I need hyd shut off.
Bought one of these in 2019 from this Company based on a recommendation from and Irish TFF'er.
Very pleased with build, based on a Vicon bottom end witha galv chassis and polyprop hopper, and at the time a lot cheaper than a Vicon. Might be tough to get one here now though from NI, but maybe worth a call?
I use mine on a Kioti 50hp compact, so very similiar to yours. It was bought as a lot less weight than small Teagle spinner. Needs a bit of weight on the front end if I put 600kg in mind...!

402 will do you nicely then.
Whatever size you get, you don't have to fill it right up anyway.

Got a nice 402 , £150 , can getbyou it to hereford if any good ,we want a bigger one to hold1 bag and hyd shut off
Or extend the leverGot a a cab tractor? If so, get a hyd shut off...
I suppose a photo is now required ....
I don't with my little one, I bought one of the big bag valve devices.
Very useful for just popping a couple of hundred kg on a paddock.

Will a caravan park need that much fertiliser? A Vicon PS225 will hold 200kg and have a low filling height. If you find you need more capacity add an extension and turn it into a PS335.

Thats what I was thinking, if true surely a mulching mower would be a better idea.
Unless there's livestock grazing there or field or 2 with no caravans on and hay made or something i guess but even so....

Do you spread salt/grit on roads in the winter? I use a vicon wagtail for this, so might be used more than you expect. I think it has a specific spout for this job. New it was a lot more than £150, but guess depends on condition/age.
