Twin 865mm diameter dynamically balanced vertical augers have flights laser cut from heat treated BORON steel to improve strength and service life. 20mm thick reversible hardened cutters manufactured using BORON steel are bolted and supported along back edge, shred products leaving a wide and even spread. Two fixed position BORON steel bottom blades per auger give wider spread widths of materials that are either fine or wet
Tridem 48 tonne sprung suspension gives improved ride comfort and weight distribution on uneven ground.
To reduce the scrub on tyres and damage on grassland when turning the 380HD comes with front and rear self-steering axles
530mm Bolt on flared extension sides are standard on 380 HD, add considerable carrying capacity to the machine, spreader design load capacity should be checked relative to the density of the material to be carried. Bolt on is standard allowing for machines to be containerised for transport
Full width floor slats clear the entire floor area, eliminating the possibility of bridging, a problem sometimes encountered with multi chain and slat floor systems. The “socket fit” design allows for easy maintenance which can be carried out in the field, it also allows the chain to pull straight should a slat become bent
Grade 80, 20mm heavy duty chains are drawn by high tensile sprockets. Sprockets are fitted to the front floor shaft as well as the driven rear shaft, ensuring perfect alignment and timing of the chains, which, in turn makes for a more reliable floor drive. Each chain has a 50 tonne breaking certificate
The robust one piece gearbox houses internal gear sets unique to Bunnings in order to ensure that auger speeds are optimised to achieve excellent spread patterns. They are large in diameter with 54mm output shafts manufactured from heat treated steel. The precision machined castings ensure perfect alignment of all the driveline components
The wide angle joint allows for turning on headlands with the PTO still engaged. Instead of shear bolt protection a cam clutch can be fitted to PTO
The PTO drive line uses Heavy Duty T80 shafts with 1 ¾” splined connections suited for heavy, demanding materials
The 800 series floor drive gearbox is hydraulically driven to ensure an even feed of material to the spreading mechanism at all times. With a reverse feature, any foreign object too large to pass through the beaters can be easily removed. An adjustable cross-line relief valve also delivers additional protection. The Widebody 380HD is fitted with 2 floor drive gearboxes as standard
Especially developed to reduce shock loads to the auger drive gearbox, the rubber cushion arrangement located between the output shaft of the auger gearbox and the base of the auger contributes to the reliability and longevity of the machine
A 250mm heavy duty box section drawbar with 21 Tonne spring are combined together for strength, reliability and comfort
Weigh cell ready is a standard feature on the 380HD spreader
A robust, simple and reliable floor tensioning system ensures floor chain tension can be easily adjusted in order to be kept to its optimum setting. Floor chains are visible from the exterior of the machine making it easy to judge when tensioning is required
60mm floor drive shafts rotate through polyester re-inforced composite bushes that contain a solid graphite filler, chosen for their high load applications in a variety of environments they are greasable, further extending their life. Bush highlighted in red
Machines fitted with slurry doors have Automatic Light Covers as standard. A simple mechanism triggered by the slurry door, moves the light cover over the lights as the slurry door begins to open
Easy greasing of top bearings via low level greasing points
An extremely strong design and construction ensures that the door can be used as a grading device for light applications of materials as well as a device for retaining very runny products
The in-cab electric remote floor speed control allows the operator to make adjustments to the floor speed while on the move
This options allows the operator to monitor door opening positions in relation to application rates
This options allows the operator to monitor door opening positions in relation to application rates
Designed for use when spreading low applications of products like Lime and chicken litter, the canopy ensures that all material is spread by the bottom auger blades
A choice of either 2 Line Air Only Brakes or Dual Supply (2 Line Air and Hydraulic) Brakes
To help clean out the deck area around the bottom of the augers these covers can be opened to allow material and water to flow out
A robust item designed with a sloping lid to reduce the build up of material
These ultra bright LED flashing/strobe lights are fitted as a pair and give a highly visible warning
HMW plastic floor virtually eliminates the possibility of products sticking to the floor of the spreader. It can also improve the flow of products with high friction values. The material is extremely durable and is in addition to the spreaders standard floor construction
A specialist auger design for machines that are purchased primarily to spread Bio-solids (sludgecake)
This option includes closer position floor slats, angled pressings on the rear of the machine to prevent sticky products building up on flat surfaces and angle throwers on augers
Angled pressings on the rear of the machine to prevent sticky products building up on flat surfaces
To enable the machine to be used for other jobs the auger assembly can be removed for the faster unloading of products such as grass, maize silage and even grain
The stone guard extension gives more protection to the tractor cab from stones being thrown forward by augers/beaters
The option of hydraulic suspension can be added to all tandem and tridem axle spreaders. It gives unrivalled stability, comfort and handling on uneven ground, loaded and unloaded. The addition of a lifting front axle aids in weight transfer and reduces wear. Hydraulic heavy duty drawbar enhances operator comfort and gives precise machine levelling so weight is spread evenly over all axles. 230 rear steer only, 380 HD front and rear steering
Standard wheels are 650/55 R26.5 10 stud.
Options: 650/65 R30.5 and 710/50 R30.5 10 stud
The Topcon Apollo spreader controller has all the features for today’s farming techniques. The standalone ISOCAN screen enables independent control of spreader with only 12 Volt power required from tractor

The GT 400 not only displays the live weight in the machine but also allows the operator to add the total weight up by pressing the start/stop button after every load. This simple weigh unit can be fitted through the whole range of Bunning muck spreaders from the 60 to the mammoth 380HD. The system is integrated with the same 20 tonne load cells as used on the popular and proven Topcon Apollo systems
As an option the machine can be manufactured to take weigh cells at a future date. The dummy weigh cells can be easily removed and replaced with full weigh cells.
Spreaders with a weigh cell system can have an overload beacon fitted. This helps operators loading the spreader know when a desired weight has been achieved to reduce chance of overloading. Beacon is magnetic and can be moved to improve visibility
While Bunning Blue or Bunning Green are our standard colours. From a BS or RAL number we can paint your machine in almost any colour
