Help Identify this Broadcast Spreader

rwoods · Dec 28, 2016

Hello,
I have a 3pt broadcast spreader I acquired with the purchase of an implement lot. There are no markings, tags or imprint numbers of any kind on the machine. I have noticed that most of the nuts and bolts are of metric sizes, clue? maybe? The original color was red. Any help with identifying this machine is appreciated. Thanks, Reggie

Lely. Don't know for sure, but looks like it. They were originally red. Google it.

I have done some research on the Lely brand but I can't find anything like this one. Any idea what year model may be? 50's 60's? The rotating table under the hopper and the offset sling'er is what has me puzzled. I've never seen one configured like this.

In the 1960s I bought a Vicon (European) spreader and although it was fitted with the "pendulem" for spreading the fertilizer or seed instead of a rotary spinner, certain elements look common to it. Mainly shape of the hopper, shape of the main frame and double-tongue tow hitch. Mine was coloured red frame and yellow hopper. It is still going. Might pay to google Vicon.
