HELPFUL HINTS:
If your spreader does not spread evenly, be sure the FRONT on the gear box points to the front of the spreader. The impeller must turn
clockwise. Reversing the gearbox will cause the impeller to turn counter clockwise. Clean the impeller after each use as some fertilizer may become stuck on the impeller blades and will cause uneven spreading.
Your spreader is designed to be pushed at three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed. Slower or faster speeds will change the
spread patterns. Wet fertilizer will also change the spread pattern and flow rate. Clean and dry your spreader thoroughly after each use. Wash between the shut off plate and bottom of the hopper.
Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gearbox or dirt may enter. When using Rock Salt remove the agitator to prevent damage to the gearbox and remove salt from the hopper daily. Rock Salt will re-
constitute back into a solid block over night with humidity and will damage your spreader.
1. Remove and identify loose
parts from carton.
