2025 Kuhn MDS .2 & .2 W Fertilizer Spreader 20.2

2025 Kuhn MDS .2 & .2 W Fertilizer Spreader 20.2

The KUHN MDS range of fertilizer spreaders offers a simple and integrated solution for a variety of operations. This includes specialized crops, such as vineyards, orchards and vegetables, as well as row crop and small grain farms.

Designed for a wide variety of crop operations, the MDS .2 Series offers many features and options to succeed in almost any application. A simple PTO drive and rugged low-maintenance gearbox operate twin spreading discs that offer working widths up to 80’ (depending on the product applied) to finish large areas quickly and efficiently. Operators will appreciate the increased capacity of the available hopper extensions to work longer between refills, while the octagonal bottom reduces bridging and sticking for even cleanout. Redesigned metering outlet controls offer both electric and hydraulic options and the position of the metering slides can be easily viewed from the tractor seat for improved operator comfort.

Features may include:

Designed to Withstand Tough Conditions

All MDS spreaders utilize a simple 540 rpm PTO drive. Contained within the cast-iron case are the components to drive the spreading discs and hopper agitator. This drive system has been designed for long life with minimal maintenance, as the gearbox oil only requires changing every 10 years under normal operating conditions.

All KUHN fertilizer spreaders go through a proven multi-step finishing process that includes mechanical and chemical cleaning followed by a top-quality powder-paint application and baking. This ensures optimal corrosion and scratch resistance, fading resistance, acid resistance, and increased abrasion durability.

Improved Material Flow

The hopper on the MDS .2 has been reshaped into a more octagonal design. Similar to the design of our larger Axis® fertilizer spreaders, the angles improve material flow to the centrally located metering outlets. This reduces bridging and promotes complete hopper emptying with all types of granular materials and seeds. A rotating agitator at the bottom of the hopper also helps to keep material flowing freely.

All MDS spreaders utilize the Direct Flow Control (DFC) system for rate control. For a given working width and ground speed, changing the opening of the metering slides by a given percentage will change the application rate by the same percentage. On the .2 models, the metering slide opening scales are mounted on the front of the spreader to keep them cleaner and for comfortable viewing from the operator’s seat.

Tailored to Your Operation

Metering Outlet Controls

Precision control of the metering outlets is essential to ensure that the right rate of fertilizer or seed is applied to the field. Each outlet is controlled by its own dual-acting hydraulic cylinder connected to the tractor’s SCVs. The size of each outlet opening can easily be monitored on the indicators visible from the operator’s seat.

For enhanced control, choose this electric metering outlet control option. One actuator for each outlet ensures reliability and precision, all controlled through the simple E-Click control box.
