Kubota DS series of basic spreaders come in hopper capacities of 700 to 1875 L, and optional hopper extensions increase this to 1400 and 4575 L, respectively, depending on the weight of materials. Spreading width varies from 9 m in our compact spreaders, to an impressive 54 m, all with even distribution and double overlap. Gentle agitators rotate the fertiliser before it reaches the spreading vanes, and this smoother acceleration prevents granule fragmentation. Kubota also does extensive spread testing analysis to map overlap patterns in 3D, which results in precise width, rate and spread charts that make our DS Series spreaders reliable and accurate.

Product Features
All of Kubota’s DS series spreaders are designed around our RotaFlow spreading system, which provides smooth acceleration, minimal impact, and consistent double-overlap horizontal spread, even on slopes or in windy conditions. The DSC, DSM and DSX models indicate our standard spreader range, and these come with excellent standard features and a huge range of extras including electronic control, aluminium hopper extensions, border spreading and LED lights.
RotaFlow System
RotaFlow is Kubota’s own spreading system, in which the fertiliser granules are already rotating when they reach the spreading vanes. This initial smooth acceleration prevents fragmentation due to minimal impact, which in turn provides an even, accurate pattern. Thanks to this gentle handling, product spreading characteristics are maintained.
FlowPilot Dashboard
The compact FlowPilot ‘dashboard’ provides easy setting and adjustment for application rates. Two hydraulically or electrically operated metering plates, each with three discharge openings, ensure equal fertiliser flow from the hopper to the spreading discs.
Accurate Charts and Apps
At www.kubotaspreadingcharts.com you can enter fertiliser characteristics and your desired working width and speed, to determine the most accurate settings for your spreader. There’s also a smartphone app in the Apple App Store or Google Play. Just type in ‘Kubota Spreading Charts’ and you’re good to go.
Electric Control
The larger DSM and DSX models can be fitted with the Comfort Control II computer to operate the spreader easily from a control box in the tractor cab. Operators can control start and stop and left/right application rates all while on the move.
