Overview

The Iris IOD600J is a 780L PTO-driven multi-material spreader designed for spreading lime, organic compost, manure, and granular fertilisers in a single machine. The patented double shutter system handles everything from wet organic material (3–6 m spread) to fine granular fertilizer (8–16 m spread), making it a practical all-in-one solution for farms, lifestyle blocks, orchards, vineyards, and market gardens.

Features & Benefits

  • Patented double shutter system — Shutter One for manure and compost, Shutter Two with butterfly openings for granular fertilisers and lime
  • Single PTO-driven stainless steel spinner disc provides full 180° spread width
  • Spinner speed controls spreading width — adjustable from 3 m to 16 m depending on material
  • Hydraulic-driven auger feeds material consistently into the hopper outlet
  • Agitator prevents bridging of material — speed adjustable via hydraulic flow controller
  • Mechanically controlled shutters via lever on the spreader — simple, reliable operation
  • Optional side dressing attachment for directing material under orchard or vineyard rows
  • Optional PVC hopper cover for orchard use — prevents fruit or foliage entering the hopper
  • Stainless steel hopper construction for corrosion resistance with wet and acidic materials

Fertiliser & Multi Spreaders — Common Questions

Can I spread lime as well as fertiliser?

Multi spreaders are built to handle lime, compost and fertiliser; a spreader marketed purely as a fertiliser spreader may not have wide enough spread vanes or a strong enough drive for lime's density and clumping tendency. Check the individual listing if you need to spread more than one material type.

Ground-drive or PTO-driven — what's the difference?

Ground-driven spreaders use the wheel rotation to drive the spinner, so spread rate is tied to your travel speed — simple and reliable, but less precise. PTO-driven spreaders run off the tractor's PTO independent of ground speed, giving more consistent spread rate control, particularly useful on hilly or uneven ground where travel speed varies.

What hopper capacity do I need?

Match hopper size to how much area you're covering per fill, balanced against what your tractor can safely carry on the linkage — an oversized hopper full of fertiliser can overload a smaller tractor's rear lift capacity.

How do I get an even spread pattern?

Spread width and evenness depend on ground speed, PTO speed (for PTO-driven units) and the spreader's vane/disc setting — check the product's spread chart if supplied, and do a test run on a tarp to check pattern before spreading a full paddock.
