Dependable and accurate spreading for fertilizer, seed, salt, or sand — ideal for orchards, nurseries, farms, and landscaping work.
The BEFCO Turbo-Hop 301 is a pendulum-style spreader engineered for tractors with 20–60 HP, delivering reliable and controlled distribution of granular or powdered material. Its design makes it suitable for fertilizer, seed, salt, and sand — covering a wide variety of tasks from crop farming to landscaping mortar or snow-salt spreading. The sturdy tubular frame and heavy-duty cast-steel gearbox (in oil bath) ensure long service life and trouble-free operation even under heavy usage.
At the core of its efficiency is a corrosion-resistant, impact-resistant polyethylene hopper that resists wear and weather over time. This hopper comes in capacities of either 9.0 cu ft (≈ 576 lb) or 12.8 cu ft (≈ 820 lb), giving you flexibility based on your workload.
Thanks to its pendulum distribution system, the Turbo-Hop 301 spreads material evenly and allows precise control over the application pattern — including full-width spread, left/right-only spreading, or even narrow band spreading. This makes it especially valuable in situations requiring accuracy, such as vineyards, orchards, nurseries, or narrow plots.
Heavy-Duty Construction & Drive System
The tubular frame and fully enclosed cast-steel gearbox (oil-bath lubricated) provide long-lasting durability and protection from rust and wear — even under frequent, heavy use.
Corrosion-Resistant Polyethylene Hopper
The hopper is made from impact-resistant polyethylene, which withstands weather and rough handling — staying functional and intact through seasons.
Micrometric Flow Control Adjustment
A graded adjustment scale lets you precisely regulate the flow rate of material, ensuring consistent application without waste.
Flexible Spread Patterns
Supports multiple spreading modes — full-width, left-only, right-only, and narrow band spreading — giving you control to match the needs of orchards, vineyards, landscaping strips, or road/salt/sand jobs.
Wide Capacity Options
Choose between two hopper sizes — approx. 576 lb or 820 lb capacity — to match workload or material volume, ideal for both small-scale and larger tasks.
