In 1899, schoolmaster Joseph Oppenheim turned inventor and introduced the first commercially successful mechanical manure spreader which became the famous New Idea® brand of manure spreaders. Created to keep his pupils out of the fields and in the classroom, the first New Idea spreader evolved to become the brand that set the standards for spreader performance, durability and reliability decade after decade.

Massey Ferguson is proud to offer the rich New Idea heritage through our 3700 Series manure spreaders.  Every 3700 Series spreader is still designed and manufactured based on the same three basic principles which guided Joseph Oppenheim: make manure handling easier, free up more time for other tasks, and provide controlled, uniform distribution.

Massey Ferguson manure spreaders are constructed using the most advanced techniques, like robotic welding and computer-aided manufacturing, to ensure all components fit precisely and function flawlessly. The 3700 Series manures spreaders are available in eight different models to choose from. Pick the exact size you need, then tailor it with options to match the unique demands of your operation.

Constant-velocity PTO: (not available on the 3709) ensures tight, chatter-free turns, reduces stress on driveline and cuts maintenance.

One-piece, copper-bearing steel sides: resists acid/basic corrosion and stands up to repeated freezing/thawing; seamless design prevents leakage.

Chain adjustment gauge: makes maintenance easy; allows at-a-glance check of conveyor chain tension.

Strategically spaced and angled beater paddles: aggressively shred a wide range of manure consistencies – from hard slabs to sloppy feedlot scrapings — and spread it evenly.

One-piece, all-welded frame: prevents twisting and flexing that can shorten spreader life; eliminates bolted joints that can vibrate and pull apart. 7-gauge, high-strength main channel handles heavy loads and stressful operating conditions.

Posi-Lock conveyor chains: There are several advantages to the T-Rod chain that are of benefit. T-Rod chains has twice the wear life of the T-Bar chain. T-Rod also has three times the fatigue life verses the T-Bar chain. Due to the cylindrical design, there is less initial wear and therefore fewer chain adjustments needed during the break-in period. The curved surfaces also make T-Rod a quieter running chain. 

Enclosed two-speed gearbox: (optional on 3709) drives both conveyor and beater with combination bevel- and worm-type drive, for reduced downtime and maintenance.
