WORX 20V Cordless Broadcast Spreader WG869 — Lightweight 3 lb, 6-Speed Motorized Seed & Fertilizer Spreader

If you want to skip the slow, tiring routine of hand-scattering or cranking a manual spreader, this compact cordless unit speeds the job while delivering consistent results. It runs on the WORX Power Share 20V battery platform, weighs only 3 lbs., and combines an anti-clog agitator with adjustable speed and flow controls so you can match output to the material and task.

How does the WG869 make spreading faster and easier?

The motorized broadcast system projects material up to 5 feet so you cover ground quickly with fewer passes. One-handed operation and a light frame reduce fatigue, while the trigger handle and speed dial let you control application on the move.

• Battery-powered motor replaces manual cranking for continuous application
• Max spread distance: 5 ft for wider coverage per pass
• Lightweight 3 lb design for comfortable one-handed use
• Trigger handle provides on-demand start and stop control

Can it handle different materials and seasons?

Yes. The WG869 accommodates a range of granular products—fine seeds, several weights of fertilizer, ice-melt, and even livestock feed—by combining an eight-setting flow baffle with a six-speed broadcast dial. That flexibility makes it useful year-round.

• Flow-rate settings 1–2 for fine seed; 3–4 for light fertilizers
• Flow-rate settings 5–6 for heavy fertilizers; 7–8 for pearled fertilizer and ice-melt
• Works for seeding in spring, fertilizing in summer/fall, and spreading ice-melt in winter
• Also suitable for broadcasting feed in agricultural or hobby settings

How does the WG869 ensure even distribution and less mess?

An onboard anti-clog agitator keeps material flowing smoothly and prevents jams that cause patchy coverage. The edge-control deflector directs the broadcast away from driveways, patios, and garden beds, so you only treat intended areas.

• Anti-clog agitator reduces blockages for uniform output
• Edge-control deflector limits overspray into unwanted spaces
• Six-speed control fine-tunes spread distance and pattern
• Consistent results help promote even germination and application rates

How much area will one fill cover and what battery does it use?

A single tub fills about 4,600 sq ft of coverage per load—suitable for yards from roughly a quarter to a half acre depending on application rate. The spreader runs on the WORX Power Share 20V battery, compatible with 140+ WORX tools for easy battery sharing.

• Coverage per load: up to 4,600 sq ft (depending on setting and material)
• Power: WORX 20V Power Share battery platform (battery sold separately if not included)
• Adjustable flow and speed dial to extend or shorten coverage per fill
• Lightweight design keeps mobility high for larger yards

Who is this for: Homeowners and small-property managers who want a fast, low-effort alternative to manual spreaders will appreciate the WG869. It suits gardeners who need precise control across seasons—seeding, fertilizing, and de-icing—plus hobby farmers or pet owners who occasionally broadcast feed. If you value portability, quick battery compatibility with other WORX tools, and reduced mess at edges and walkways, this spreader is built for that use.
