Product Description
HERD Model 2440-3pt Broadcast Seeder & Spreader For Tractor
DISCRIPTION
The HERD Model 2440 Broadcast Seeder & Spreader is the ideal choice for professionals looking to cover extensive acreage with minimal stops. With its 32-bushel (2440 lb) hopper capacity, this seeder/spreader is designed for heavy-duty applications, consistently spreading seed, fertilizer, or lime. Its hydraulic control system allows for seamless operation from the tractor seat, ensuring convenience and control.
Constructed from durable 14-gauge steel with powder-coated paint and welded seams, the 2440 model is built to last. The round hopper base prevents material from lodging, while the rotating agitator ensures an even feed. This model includes an independent stand, aluminum base plate, and steel fan blades for added durability. Optional lime agitator, hydraulic drive, and banding kits expand its versatility for vineyards, nurseries, and specialized applications.

- Hydraulic Control from Tractor Seat: Open and close the seed gate easily with tractor-mounted hydraulic controls.
- Adjustable Spread Pattern: Spreads up to 40 feet wide with an adjustable pattern control for precision distribution.
- Heavy-Duty Gearbox: Cast-iron gearbox with tapered roller bearings and drop-forged gears for lasting durability.
- Self-Cleaning Design: Good slant for self-cleaning, with replaceable fan blades and aluminum base plate for long-term performance.
- Optional Banding Kits: Choice of hydraulic or manual banding kits for left, right, or dual-sided application.
