Built Tougher to Last Longer

Fully-welded using COR-TEN steel (Copper Chromium Alloy Steel), ABI ATV manure spreaders are built to be tank-tough to endure the heavy-duty manure work on your land. Each component is made from this extremely thick 12-gauge steel, giving our small spreaders greater durability and longevity to reduce your maintenance expenses. Even unfinished you can count on the steel construction of your small manure spreader to stand strong against rust, rot, or corrosion as you handle manure from day to day.

Simply Better Technology

ABI muck spreaders are designed with superior craftsmanship to make manure management easier. Featuring easy-to-use manual levers, a swing-away jack stand for simple hookup and detachment, and an industry-exclusive Inline Shred & Spread System, our small manure spreaders simply give you a better, finer spread of manure over your farm. Beyond better technology, we’ve also made our spreaders and components easier to maintain and service, so you can be sure to have high-quality equipment that’ll work hard for decades.

Healthier Paddocks & Pastures

Properly managing manure is a critical part of maintaining a healthy farm. ABI small manure spreaders make it easier and safer to muck out the stables and spread manure into your pastures. Using our innovative shred-and-spread system and 4-speed variable flow control, you can adjust your spreader to finely shred and spread all sorts of animal manure. Spreading finer manure gives you a faster, more even distribution of fertilizer to absorb into your soil. Having manure breakdown faster ensures you have cleaner paddocks as well as healthier and safer pastures for your horses.

25, 50, & 65 cu ft – Ground Drive Levers

4-Speed Variable Flow Control

Create an Eco-Balanced Pasture

The 4-Speed Application Flow Control enables you to control the flow and volume of manure your dung spreader applies to the ground. Using the spreader’s front manual levers, adjust the rate of manure fed to the beater bars via the apron web between four different speeds to speed up or slow down your spreading. By controlling the output of manure, users can choose to empty their manure as fast as possible or slowly apply manure to maximize fertilization to specific areas in the pasture. Variable flow control also helps you adjust your small spreader to pulverize a broader range of manure types, consistencies, bedding materials, and stages of decomposition without causing damage to your ground driven manure spreader. Improve the eco-balance and growth of your pasture with controlled applications of manure from your ABI UTV manure spreader.

25, 50, & 65 cu ft – Spreaders Beater Bars

Inline Shredding System

Shred Before You Spread

What makes ABI’s muck spreaders unique is how each model features a 2-stage inline shred and spread system designed to pulverize manure into fine shreds to help evenly spread fertilizer over the ground. The system includes two beater bars fitted with 32 blades to ensure every bit of manure is thoroughly shredded. Once the manure is fed through the beater bars, the manure fines are evenly distributed in a fine layer over the ground via ten spreading paddles on the back of your small manure spreader. By finely shredding manure before you spread it, more manure is exposed to the sun’s UV rays, helping it break down faster to encourage better pasture growth and reduce the risk of colic, odors, or pests.

Protective Box Liner

An Industrial-Grade Seal to Guard Your Steel

Each ABI spreader box comes standard with an industrial-grade box liner to create a better seal against manure leakage. Our engineers use a special epoxy liner to coat the inside of the manure spreader box, giving it an impermeable and smooth protective seal that can resist severe corrosion or abrasion from urine-filled manure. Since epoxy liners are often used to protect underground sewage tanks and pipelines, you operate your small manure spreader with ease knowing the spreader box is secured from corrosion due its heavy-duty protective liner.

Lifetime Poly-Lumber Flooring

For Maximum Manure Loading & Towing

The bottom flooring of our small manure spreaders is made of a premium tongue-and-groove polyvinyl lumber. The spreader’s poly-lumber flooring is extremely thick to ensure your spreader can support heavy manure loads, allowing you to load your manure spreader up to maximum capacity. Better yet, the tongue-and-groove construction of the poly-boards prevents excessive warping, wear, or damage to the apron web. While our poly-lumber flooring is built to last long, ABI also offers a limited lifetime flooring warranty to support customers.

Stainless Steel Apron Web

Rust-Resistant Chains and Slats

Assembled using interlocking chains and slats, the apron web ensures your small manure spreader releases a stable, consistent rate of fertilizer at your desired speed. Better yet, the chains and slats are made from high-quality stainless steel, making the web chemically resistant to corrosion from urine-laced manure. When operating your spreader, the apron web is driven via the advanced ground drive system from the left wheel, causing it to move and push manure towards the back. With the right wheel running the beater bars, the apron web pushes manure out the back, ensuring everything is finely shredded and spread over the soil as you tow.

Commercial-Grade Coating

Protect Components from Extreme Corrosion

All components on our dung spreaders get a premium 2-ply commercial-grade coating for additional protection against corrosion. After being sand-blasted to ensure perfect adhesion of the paint, the components are coated in a black gloss acrylic urethane paint (PPG AUE-370) that’s twice as thick as Rust-Oleum which can be easily repaired or touched up during future maintenance. What’s unique about this special finish is how it makes your small ATV spreader impermeable to moisture or animal urine from manure, eliminating the risk of rust forming underneath the finish layer and damaging your spreader.

Advanced Ground Drive System

Drive Power to Multiple Components

ABI utilizes an advanced ground drive system to provide power to our small muck spreaders. The ground drive system works by connecting the wheels of the manure spreader to operate and drive power to specific components. The right wheel drives the beater bars system that shreds and spreads manure, while the left wheel drives the apron chain in the spreader box which pushes manure towards the beaters and out of the dung spreader. What’s more, the wheels are designed to move in unison, keeping the components at compatible operating speeds while also maximizing traction for your spreader. From tight turns on rough pastures to wet or icy ground, this advanced ground drive system gives you the power to properly spread in almost any condition.

Swing-Away Jack with Wheel Dolly

Quick & Easy Hookup to Small Tow Vehicles

The swing-away jack crank makes it easy to hookup or detach an ABI small manure spreader to your ATV, UTV, or other small tow vehicle. It also includes a wheel dolly that can be used to manually maneuver the attachment into a garage, tool shed, barn, or other tight spaces for storage. If your barn lacks pass-through aisles, the swing-away jack with wheel dolly enables you to manually push your muck spreader between paddocks so you can conveniently muck manure directly from the stall to the spreader.

Advantages of Small Manure Spreaders

ABI spreaders are fully-welded with COR-TEN steel to be tank-tough through and through. Our extremely thick COR-TEN steel provides tremendous longevity without the ridiculous expense of stainless steel. So yes, our spreaders aren’t shiny like your kitchen appliances for good reason: stainless steel is not as structurally sound as COR-TEN. Below we have detailed out why our spreaders are built to outlast the barn; and the competition.

Superior-Quality Craftsmanship & Components

Built in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, by highly skilled craftsmen with decades of small manure spreader building experience, these compact manure spreaders are crafted for daily farm-use conditions and made of the most durable components we know of. Materials such as grade-5 bolts, serviceable greaseable bearings, oil-impregnated bronze bushings, heavy-duty size 60 roller chain (nearly 1″ wide), stainless steel T-Rod apron chain, and hardened sprockets ensure longevity. You can judge a ground driven manure spreader’s materials and components quality by its overall unit weight; the heavier, the better. The ABI compact manure spreader weighs nearly 1/3 more than equivalently sized competitors’ small manure spreaders. Now that is tangible quality you can feel!

Ground Driven Manure Spreaders, 25, 50, & 65 cu ft – Compact Manure Spreaders End Gate

Manual End Gate & Shield

Block Off Flying Debris

To protect operators and equipment from flying manure, add on the optional manual end gate and shield. By closing off the back of the spreader, the end gate acts as a shield to block you and your tow vehicle from being covered in flying manure or debris. An additional benefit to closing the back of your small manure spreader is the end gate prevents manure from clogging the beater bars during loading, allowing you to fill your spreader to maximum capacity without issue.

Ground Driven Manure Spreaders, 25, 50, & 65 cu ft – Compact Manure Spreaders Fines Pan

Pasture/ Fines/ Litter Pan

Keep Clumps Out of Your Pasture

Using the optional fines pan, be sure to shred every bit of manure in your dung spreader and prevent stray clumps from hitting the ground. Attached directly behind the spreader, the fines pan catches and brings any fallen clumps of manure back into the beaters to be finely shredded. Including a fines pan is especially useful for catching smaller litter produced by poultry. The optional pan also features a release for easy cleaning or replacement.

Jack Babb – May 30, 2019
Works very well for our small farm. Easy to load by shovel, easy to pull with small Ford tractor. I wish I had a larger farm and a front-end loader and I would get a larger spreader. We call ours our own politician because it spreads manure well.

Bob Baldwin – May 30, 2019
Built like a tank. I had a similar Mill Creek spreader that lasted 11 trouble free years of daily use. Was probably repairable but since I had a lot of underbelly component rust, I replaced it w the ABi Classic 50. The ABi is much heavier built. Since we wash the spreader out (including underneath) after each daily use, I expect it to last a long time. The 50 easily handles 6 stalls and works great w our Gator as propulsion. It has a multi-speed spread function that enables control of how fast the spreader empties. The spring that controls it broke after six months; in the idle position it caused contact w sprocket and chain anyway so we have not replaced it…defaults to slow empty w/o the spring but thatÕs how we use it anyway. Multi-speed emptying is a nice feature but ABi needs to engineer it better so it is more durable and doesnÕt cause that annoying ringing of sprocket contact w drive chain in travel position. A very nice spreader…I originally bought the ABi Elite spreader but very soon exchanged it for the Classic. DonÕt buy the Elite if itÕs still
