About this product
Efficient Pull-Type Broadcast Spreader for Small Tractors & ATVs
Rely on smooth, even spreading for seed, fertilizer, salt, sand or top-dressing — no matter your terrain.
The Befco Baby-Hop Broadcast Spreader is built for flexibility and ease of use, perfect for homeowners, small farms, parks, athletic fields, or golf-course grounds crews who use lawn tractors, ATVs, or UTVs. Ground-driven with a pull-type hitch, it spreads granular materials like seed, pelletized lime, sand, salt, or fertilizer evenly across wide areas — or precisely to one side when needed.
With a choice of hopper capacities (237 lb or 339 lb), this spreader balances load size with maneuverability. Its sturdy tubular frame, sealed gearbox with metal gears, and high-floatation tires make it durable yet easy to tow and operate across varied terrain. Whether you’re seeding a lawn, top-dressing turf, or spreading salt before winter, Baby-Hop delivers consistent coverage with minimal effort.
Baby-Hop Broadcast Spreader Key Features
Pull-type hitch & ground-driven design
Connect easily to lawn tractors, ATVs, or UTVs — no PTO needed, and the spreader disc is driven by wheel movement for simple, reliable operation.
Adjustable spread pattern
Switch between left, center or right spread with a simple adjustment to target your dispersal — useful for edges, paths, or uneven ground.
Durable hopper construction
Choose between a robust steel hopper or a polyethylene hopper with stainless-steel bottom, both built as a one-piece seamless unit for long life and resistance to wear or corrosion.
Sealed heavy-duty gearbox
All-metal gears in a sealed gearbox ensure dependable, maintenance-free performance season after season, even under heavy use or damp conditions.
Precise gate control & flow regulation
Adjust the gate opening to control the volume of material released — ensuring accurate application rates whether you’re fertilizing turf or spreading salt.
High-floatation tires & sturdy frame
Large pneumatic tires and a rugged tubular frame provide stability and smooth towing across lawns, rough ground, or light off-road terrain.
