Material densities are approximate and are based on dry,
loose material. It is the responsibility of the operator to
know the weight of the material to be spread and the vehicle
carrying capacity.
Weight of spreader and mount must be added to
struck material weight to determine total spreader
weight. Do not exceed maximum material capacity
as shown on the safety label (see Safety section).
Use only fine materials with the spreader. Other
forms of spreading material (e.g., bagged or bulk rock
salt) are not compatible with the tailgate spreader.
NOTE: If spreader and ice control material loading
is in doubt, weigh vehicle for compliance with
vehicle ratings.
