You've got to realize, this equipment is running minimum 8 hrs a day 5 and 6 days a week, doing nothing but loading and hauling. A lot of it runs 24/7. Very different duty cycle than occasional ag use. With that said, the little spreadr I use, takes about 3 dumps, the big litter spreader takes about 12. Takes roughly 15 minutes to load.
