Description

The Vermeer MS400 Twin-Auger Manure Spreader is a heavy-duty, 400 cu ft (11.3 m³) manure spreader designed for demanding agricultural applications involving wet, heavy manure. Its twin vertical augers provide versatile handling and a maximum spread width of up to 52 ft (16 m), while the 1,000-rpm PTO configuration supports use with appropriately equipped tractors. This catalogue configuration includes 425/65R22.5 tires and is identified by product code MS400TVAVP1041 and manufacturer reference MS4691361.

Reliable Twin-Vertical-Auger Spreading

The MS400 uses twin vertical augers to process and distribute wet, heavy manure across a broad spreading pattern. The twin-auger design is intended to provide versatility and premium spread quality, with a maximum spread width of 52 ft (16 m) in the TVA configuration. Boron auger flighting helps provide wear resistance, while heat-treated boron teeth are designed for demanding manure-spreading conditions.

With a heaped capacity of 400 cu ft (11.3 m³), the MS400 is suited to high-volume spreading work. Its 25,000-lb (11,000-kg) maximum net load supports substantial payloads, while the RT350/50 floor drive and 5/8-in (16-mm) floor chain are specified for the machine’s floor-conveyor system.
