HELPFUL HINTS:
READ THE DIRECTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY
; If your spreader does not spread evenly, be sure the word “FRONT” on the gear box points toward the tow bar of the
spreader. The impeller must turn clockwise. Reversing the gearbox will cause the impeller to turn counter clockwise.
Clean the impeller surface after each use. Fertilizer stuck on the impeller blades will cause uneven spreading.
; Your spreader is designed to be pulled 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. Coat all metal surfaces (inside & outside of chassis) with light oil or silicon spray to help
prevent corrosion. 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.
OVER
3 MPH
Do not tow
faster than

ROCK SALT and POWDERED MATERIALS
should not be used in this spreader as it will damage
the gearbox and can void the warranty.
Use only granular materials.
