Earthway 2600APlus Broadcast Spreader: A Review

A video I have made literally after its first use, which is why I am catching my breath...I was a bit tired and so angry about buying this product I was compelled to make video. 😑

Hi Dexter. It looks like your earthway spreader is missing the big cotter pin that is supposed to spin on the inside/bottom of the hopper next to the 3 holes.

For those saying he's missing his pin, around 2:46, it can be seen. The problem is this spreader and the bigger version, the 2150, are exactly what he says it is. From delayed spreading, heavy swath to the left (without the side spread on), the setting control self adjusting after tightening the wingnut to the point your fingers are on the verge of bleeding, this thing is trash.

The Earthway adjuster is under the holder.

I have the Brinly version which has an adjustable linkage for the gate. Yes you were missing the cotterpin which acts as the agitator. Mines been going almost 10 years and I use it to take care of 5 to 10 lawns. I just out grew it and I'm looking at the chapin stainless steel one. It's twice the quality but also twice the price.

Your little pin is missing, contact Earthway and they will mail you one promptly.
