Abstract
A handheld spreader having a fillable container for dispensing particulate from an electrically powered blower assembly in a detachable base. The spreader includes a feed slide leading from the container to the air stream channel of the base that has a vibrating eccentric plate for guiding and improving the flow of particulate from container into the air stream. The container and base are frictionally engaged together, thereby allowing for easy assembly of spreader, including assembly after container has been filled with particulate, as well as easy reassembly if container is removed and refilled. The spreader includes a rotating slide that may be operated by a user to open and partially close the feed slide of the container to control the feed rate.
