ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a ground wheel takeoff drive system for fertilizer spreaders or the like including a gearbox being adapted to reside at least partly inside one of the speader's pneumatic tire and wheel cavities and having a hollow shaft journalled therein through which passes the axle on which the tire and wheel is mounted. The hollow shaft is secured to rotate with the ground wheel and a restraining element causes the gearbox to be restrained from rotation. The gearbox has a sprocket which is geared to be driven from the rotating hollow shaft, a remote control cable arrangement is connected to a gear lever on the gearbox which slides a driven gear in and out of engagement with a gear secured to the hollow shaft so that the gearbox sprocket motion may be disabled or enabled from a remote position; a sprocket chain is provided with suitable idlers for driving a sprocket wheel connected in a conventional manner to the gear drive mechanism for the fertilizer spreader.
