Description
BRABER BE-PFS500G 3-Point PTO Broadcast Spreader is a high-capacity, PTO-driven spreader designed for distributing fertilizer, seed, lime, sand, ice melt, and similar materials across large areas. Built for Category 1, 3-point hitch tractors, this 1,000 lb-class spreader features a 1,160 lb hopper, heavy-duty corrosion-resistant poly construction, and a stainless steel insert for added durability in demanding agricultural, property-maintenance, and winter-material applications. Its 540 RPM PTO drive powers a bottom-drop spinner, while manual controls and a choice of three spread patterns provide practical control over material placement.
Efficient PTO-Powered Material Spreading
The BE-PFS500G uses a tractor PTO connection to drive the broadcast spinner, helping operators cover large areas efficiently. The 1,160 lb hopper capacity supports extended spreading between refills, making the spreader suitable for larger fields, grounds, driveways, paths, and other areas requiring the distribution of granular materials.
The hopper combines heavy-duty poly construction with a stainless steel insert. This corrosion-resistant design is suited to materials such as fertilizer, lime, ice melt, and other products that may be demanding on equipment surfaces. The manufacturer identifies the unit as a 1,000 lb-class spreader, while the verified hopper capacity is 1,160 lb.
Controlled Broadcast Coverage
A bottom-drop spinner distributes material from the hopper as the tractor moves. The spreader offers a choice of three spread patterns, allowing operators to select the pattern that best suits the application. Manual rate and pattern controls provide straightforward adjustment at the machine, without adding hydraulic-control requirements.
