The Chapin 150 lb. Tow Behind Spreader 8620B is designed to eliminate the hassle of reaching a lever to stop seed or fertilizer from spilling. It helps to prevent burning of lawns and turf and eliminates waste.

This high-quality spreader has a capacity of 150 pounds and protects its load from shock and impact with its 14 inch pneumatic wheels. For precise application, it has an easy to set gate adjustment with 11 incremental settings. Oil impregnated bearings are used to lessen friction on gearbox and axle.

Chapin Tow Behind Speader
By Chris on 09/23/2022
Loved the product well built and one of the better spreaders I've bought in years past. The fact this spreader has brass bushings verses plastic is a plus and grease fittings for long lasting performance. I recommend this product to others.

Do not use for fertilizer.

The gear box is junk!
By Michaelz on 04/29/2024
The spreader is great when working. Read the reviews on Chapin's own website about the gearbox, it is terrible and will seize up after the 1 year warranty. At least domyown does carry this part for 72 dollars with shipping, I know I bought another its my second one so if you buy this spreader order a couple of extra gearboxes you will need them.

The distance Chapin 150 lb. Tow Behind Spreader 8620B will spread will depend upon the speed at which you are walking, but can do 10-12 ft.

The Chapin 150 lb. Tow Behind Spreader 8620B has only been tested for grass seed and fertilizer applications per the product manual. There is no information stating yes or no to use this spreader for lime applicaitons so the best resource would be to contact Chapin directly at 1-800-950-4458 for their recommendations.
