The Spreadmax 240 fertiliser spreader is similar in design to the Spreadmax 120, the difference lies in the larger hopper capacity (240 litres).
The owners manual sets out the range of settings to take some of the guess work out of fertiliser calibration.
Spreadmax 240s can also be used to spread grass seed.
Vogal Spreadmax hoppers are made from thick heavy duty UV resistant plastic. This helps it cope with the harsh extremes in the New Zealand environment. They are braced with solid galvanised steel side arms.
