Look for EarthWay® or EV-N-SPRED® models on the bag for settings. If there is none listed, please use the comparison chart below as a guide to estimate your spreader
setting. These settings are approximate and intended as a guide only.
Variations in physical characteristics of material applied, walking speed and surface roughness may require slightly different spreader settings. Due to the above conditions, the
manufacturer makes no warranty as to the uniformity of coverage actually obtained from settings listed.

Start by ensuring that your spreader calibration is
correct. Make sure the drop holes in the Standard-Output Tray
are fully open when the Rate Control handle is on #30. If not,
please adjust control rod at the pivot to allow for a full open

Calibration:
Start by ensuring that your spreader calibration is
correct. Make sure the drop holes in the LOW-OUTPUT TRAY
are fully closed when the Rate Control Handle is resting on the
stop #0
. If not, please adjust control rod at the pivot to ensure the
shut-off is fully closed with the handle at position at #0. Move
the spreader slightly to confirm the calibration because of the
cam.
