Swisher Commercial Pro ATV Spreader (19920)

First I would like to say I was hesitant about ordering from Kit Superstore since this was my first time but the reviews were good and they checked out as legitimate. About the ordering...It was quick and easy as well as confirmed the order and sent me status updates. Best of all I couldn't believe how fast it came. Kit Superstore processed the order immediately and the manufacturer sent it right out. Total time from order to arrival was only 3-4 days. Next about the product. I needed a spreader for my John Deere 1025 tractor and 1 acre of lawn. 3 pt spreaders are too expensive and overkill for my use so did my research and decide on the Swisher (knowing I would modify it for the rear of my tractor). Assembly was pretty much straight forward, just take your time and go slow. My wife always helps by reading the instructions as I assemble. I found no 'holes' in the instructions and all parts were included. I did a pre check on the motor operation and drop mechanism and all checked out fine. Next was to connect it to my tractor. I was able to make an adapter to bolt on the spreader. Best part about this is Swisher includes several U-bolts and pre-cut plates for connecting to an ATV in which I was able to use. With the spreader securely mounted to the adapter I created, I was now able to utilize my 3 pt hitch with a 2" receiver hitch. As others did, I extended the wiring and moved the on/off switch up to my tractor. Again Swisher included full electrical connections so I just added the extension cord and accessory adapter. Last was the extension of the fertilizer drop control. Since there was a hole where I removed the on/off switch, I bolted a 1/2" pvc pipe about 6' long so I can control it easily on my left side. Operation: I tested it with some fine sand and was worried I wouldn't get a wide spread. After running fertilizer through it though the spread was about 10 feet as advertised and most importantly even. Happy with the quality and operation!
