HELPFUL TIPS
If your spreader does not spread evenly, check that
you assembled your spreader with the gearbox
labeled "FRONT" points toward the front of the
spreader. The impeller must turn clockwise.
Reversing the gearbox will cause the impeller to turn
counterclockwise.
Your spreader is calibrated for three miles per hour.
Slower or faster speeds will change the spread
patterns.
Clean and dry your spreader thoroughly after each
use. Coat all metal surfaces with light oil or silicon
spray to help prevent corrosion. Wash between the
shut off plate and bottom of the hopper. Do not use
powdered materials.
Gears are pre-lubricated at the factory. Do not open
the gearbox or dirt may enter.
Spreading fertilizer with an ice melt spreader will
burn your lawn. The high output opening is designed
for rock salt. No agitator is needed for salt.
