The 65PT was designed and built with Market Gardeners in mind, but homeowners also find this compost spreader to be especially useful. Save your back from having to push a wheelbarrow full of compost down the rows of your garden or across your lawn. Instead, fill the 65PT and tow it, spreading an even amount of topdressing for soil health or leveling.
This top dress spreader is a ground drive spreader with an adjustable end-gate. Once the operator sets the gate for the depth of spread required it will spread at the same depth no matter the speed of travel. The 65PT is perfect for market gardeners using the 30-inch bed system. The spread width is 30-inches but the wheels are 36-inches apart. It can easily straddle the 30-inch beds with 6 inches of clearance. A full load spread at 3/8″ will cover 100 linear feet.
It is also the ideal homeowner spreader, low enough to load with a shovel or small loader, compact enough to store in the off-season, and small enough to pull behind an average lawn tractor or zero turn.Please refer to your machine's manual or dealer for towing capacities or recommendations.
Standard Features
Easy Engage
The MultiSpread 65PT top dress spreader has an easy engage/disengage lever. Simply pull the silver colored pin and rotate to either engage or disengage the belt.
Stainless Steel Box
The box of the MultiSpread 65PT is built from Stainless Steel for a long life. This spreader will clean up with a nice shine time and time again.
Adjustable Endgate
The 65PT has an adjustable gate for a variety of spreading materials. Spreading from a thin dusting to a heavy coating this machine is useful in many scenarios.
Wash-Out Ports
There are four wash-out ports on this top dress spreader (two in the front and two in the back) allowing you to keep the underside of the belt clean, which keeps it on track when used heavily.
Ground Drive System
One wheel ground drive system runs the conveyor belt off wheel speed, allowing consistent spread at various speeds, with thickness set from the metering gate dial.
Adjustable Belt
The belt is easily adjustable (for tightening) by loosening four nuts on the conveyor roller slide on each side and then adjusted by using a single bolt and nut system on each side.
Full Width Belt
A 30-inch wide PVC crescent belt delivers material evenly and smoothly to the metering gate for an even spread with sand, compost and more.
Belt Cleanoff
Each 65PT is equipped with a stiff bristle brush that will keep the belt from collecting material as it go around. This ensures material will spread well, even when sticky!
Optional Features
Light Material Sides
The LMS option increases the heaped capacity to 15 cu. ft. from 9 cu. ft. for compost, wood chips and more, but would not work well with sand as it would overload the unit.
The 65PT has the option to be setup with a BCS tractor hitch for over the row spreading on garden beds. For more information about this setup, please reach out to your local BCS dealer.

I have an older spreader that I bought second hand. I needed replacement parts. Ed worked diligently to find the correct part and help me to trouble shoot my issue. My parts came quickly and we were back up and running. Fantastic service, I can’t thank him enough!

Absolutely fantastic. Jeb was upfront, comprehensive and product arrived without a single flaw. Setup and installation went off without a hitch just following his instructions. Unit is heavy and definitely well constructed. My only issue - I didn’t want to get it dirty! The 65PT is right for residential use, though I still want the 415SP. Bunch of neighbors seething at the unit and ability to top dress whenever I want! Thanks Jeb and team at Earth n Turf. A+ quality product and service!

Purchased a Topdresser to lay out sand in our 4-acre field. High quality machine, great customer service, and fast shipping. The topdresser performed well enough, though we bought one way smaller than we should have. All in all, a good experience, would recommend this company.

Purchased a 65PT to top dress USGA sand on tee offs and putting green at our Driving Range. (Divot Repair). The 65PT made the work much easier. No more throwing sand by shovel. Allows you to choose the depth of the sand applied. Very happy with the purchase. Suggestion to Mfg: Make the lever that engages/dis-engages drive mechanism longer so it is easier to grasp by hand. The lever is located behind the gear/chain guard and somewhat difficult to grasp. When the 65PT fully loaded, pressure is on the gears and lever is somewhat hard to engage/dis-engage.

I wanted to take a moment to give my honest feedback on the P65 Earth and Turf spreader I purchased. I'm extremely satisfied with it; it works flawlessly and I could not be happier with my decision. This spreader has been perfect for my needs and honestly, it blows the competition away. I tried Eco's version of it and had problems from day one. Moreover, your customer service is wonderful, and communication is great. Jeb reached out to me about a month after having the spreader to see if I had any issues or questions which I had none. Honestly, if you're in the market for a spreader of any kind, I highly recommend checking these guys out. Earth and Turf knows their stuff, and it's a quality American-made product from a small family-owned company. The overall quality of Earth and Turf's products is top-notch, and the functionality and ease of use are superb. I’ve used it 3-4 times fully loaded with compost and topsoil, and I've experienced zero issues. (Get the side extensions for any spreader, it's a game changer) Looking ahead, my next big project will involve leveling my front yard with mason sand, and I'm confident it will perform just as well. Thank you for providing such a great product! Best regards,
