Questions and answers
how do i calibrate the scotts dlx edge guard spreader
To calibrate the Scotts EdgeGuard DLX spreader:
1. Set the spreader to setting "2".
2. Squeeze the trigger against the handle to open the shut-off plate.
3. Look for the calibration line on the black opener (shut-off plate).
4. The calibration line should align with the back edge of the hopper opening.
This ensures the spreader is properly calibrated for use.

So mine is not calibrated anymore. How do I adjust it to be calibrated?
the line that attachs to edgegard has come off . I notice the line has a curve or hook to it, how do I re-attach this line ?
To re-attach the line with a curve or hook to the Scotts EdgeGuard DLX:
1. Open the handle by gently prying the tab with a small flathead screwdriver, then pry around the outside to release two tabs.
2. Use needle nose pliers to bend the cable end:
- Make a 90-degree bend upward 1/8" from the tip.
- Then, 1/8" further in, bend it downward 90 degrees to form a hook.
3. Repeat the same bend on the other end of the cable.
4. Reinstall the cable and reassemble the handle.
This should allow the edge guard to open and close properly.

is there a calibration for broadcast spreader
The calibration for the Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard DLX broadcast spreader is controlled by a dial that sets the application rate. Turning the dial adjusts a stepped cylinder that acts as a stop to regulate how wide the chute door opens, which controls how much product flows to the spinning impeller. Specific calibration settings depend on the product being applied.

I have an elite Scott's spreader. I used first time an ended up with a yellow stripped yard. I used 6 feet as a guide. How do I set the distance to start the next row to get complete fertilization of my yard.
How does one recalibrate this spreader? There is too little flow, so, for example, a "3" needs to be a "6".
Hello Scott Mates
I need to spread 20lbs per 1000sq ft. How do I set the dial?
sotts Edgeguard mini. Can I purchase agitator only for this product?
what would I set the dial to if I needed to spred 4 lbs per 1000 sq. ft
A dial setting of 2.5 on the Scotts EdgeGuard DLX spreads approximately 1.38 lbs per 1000 sq. ft, and a setting of 3.5 spreads 2.85 lbs per 1000 sq. ft. Based on this, to spread 4 lbs per 1000 sq. ft, a higher setting than 3.5 would be needed—approximately around setting 4.5. However, calibration under your own conditions is recommended for accuracy.
