Review: Great quality components and built like a tank, but buy washers/lock washers - This is such a quality spreader. Great components and stainless steel frame. It was not really that challenging to put together, you just have to study the drawings and replicate them. After reading a review about a different Chapin spreader, I heeded their suggestion that you should use washers and lock washers on all of the bolts. Some reviews have noted that these spreaders can loosen up and the nylon nuts don’t really stay secure. I bought 1/4” stainless steel washers and 1/4” stainless steel lock washers to secure all of the bolts (see the photos). I used these washers on the head end of the bolt as well as on the nut end. The frame tubes are all rounded and the heads and nuts don’t have a flat surface on which to seat. It feels really solid after putting mine together this way. The only problem about the instructions that I still haven’t clarified is the large washers. It only says “use the washers as needed.” They are intended for somewhere along the wheel/axle/wheel assembly to take out any back and forth slack, I just don’t know where. I’ll call Chapin again tomorrow. They have been very helpful when I called with questions. The other nice thing about this spreader is that it has two different augers—one regular style flat auger (but not a simple thin piece of metal), and an auger that is like a drum with wings on it. The manual says the drum is for applications of minerals (that tend to clump) to lawns. I regularly apply gypsum to my yard as it helps with clay soil. The gypsum clumps badly, and I know the drum will help in applying it. This is a spreader with quality parts, good design and so easy to use. The open/close of the holes is solid with no slack—just strong and gets the job done, without question about whether it had. One last thing, this thing is FN HUGE. I didn’t realize it was so big. I won’t have to reload so often for my 5000 sq ft lawn. I love it!!!
Review: Very nice unit, assembly is a pain - This is a very high quality spreader, but a pain to assemble. However, once you get that done (took me a couple of hours) it is very nice, with very wide turf tires. It is very large, which is what I needed, but might be a little bit big for a small property. 4 stars because really expensive, and assembly is more difficult than it needs to be. I know it needs to be in pieces to fit in a box, but good grief.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice upgraded spreader
*by J***T on March 1, 2021*

I have a 2 acre zoysia yard and fertilize every month during the growing season. I also put down pre-emergent, etc.. so I use my spreader a lot. I finally wore my Shindawa RS60 out this spring and knew I wanted something as good or even better. I did a lot of research and zeroed in on the Chapin 8400C. I think it delivers a ton of bang for the buck. The tires are so much bigger than the Shindawa which makes it is significantly easier to use. It also holds 80 pounds of product, so cuts down on my refills by half. I really like that all of the metal parts are stainless; this was the lowest priced unit I could find in stainless. It also has a zerk fitting which will allow me to take better care of it than my Shindawa. Instructions were simple; it took me less than an hour to build it. I really like this spreader, look forward to many years of use and highly recommend it to others.
