Subject: Help identifying this dry fertilizer spreader



NE Ohio
We purchased a winter project this weekend. It is mostly welding and standard parts. However, it would really be helpful if we could get a rate chart for this old timer. Any of you guys recall a model like this (or manufacturer)? I am thinking maybe an old Willmar?

It has two ID stamps (as shown):
"6 T 1216"
"6TSS1B8"

I imagine from the stamping that it is a 6 ton Stainless Steel but that is about all I have to work with. It does seem unusual to have the drive wheel in the front like this. Maybe that is a clue...

Thanks for any help! Its going to take alot of rod and steel...

I have not seen a wilmar with a drive like that but I may be wrong.

It does not look like a Wilmar. Possibly a Tyler, but I've never seen one with drive wheel up front like that. I've got an old Tyler buried in the shed. If I get a chance today, I'll snap a picture of the rate chart on it.

Here are a few pics of my old Tyler. It does not look like a match, but the rate chart might get you close:

This is the Tyler Moonwalk series, came in 6T and 8T had a lot to them, over 10 with 10 hp Koehler instead of PTO. Good spreaders

Thanks Jay. This seems different but at least it is better start than a total guess! Seems a gentleman below may have some insight on this item's last home...

Used to be a lot of Pamco spreaders around Ohio when they had a manufacturing facility in Ohio. I remember some of them had the drive wheel in front like that. Pamco still in business in another state.

I see your from NE Ohio, this wouldn't happen to be the spreader that was listed last week on Craigslist in Suffield would it be?

Yes. This is exactly that spreader. Was it yours? I would greatly appreciate any leads on its type or information. Seems it is an old Hoopes spreader.
Thanks!

You could call Terry Hoopes (Hoopes Fertilizer) and ask him: (330) 894-2one2one
