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 regularly. To
prevent rust, coat all metal parts (inside and out) including the frame tubes with a light oil or silicon spray.
; Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gearbox or dirt may enter.
; If you use Rock Salt remove the agitator to prevent damage to the gearbox and remove salt from the hopper daily. Rock Salt will
reconstitute back into a solid block if left in the hopper overnight and will damage your gearbox if pushed with the block in place.
ROCK SALT AND POWDERED MATERIALS SHOULD
NOT BE USED IN THIS SPREADER AS IT WILL DAMAGE
GEARBOX AND CAN VOID WARRANTY.
USE ONLY GRANULAR MATERIALS.
