Seed Application
Preparing the Lawn
Cut the grass to approximately ½" (1-1.5 cm) lower •
than you normally would.
Do not water before sowing.
•
Remove the layer of old grass cuttings (thatch). •
Aerate the lawn with a core-type ground aerator. •
Fertilize the lawn. •
Seed Application Chart
Located on the seeder, the chart values are
approximate; quantities of seed depend on the speed
at which the machine is run. Faster running speeds
results in sparser sowing.
To set the seed application, loosen the wingnut and
turn the seeder dial to the desired sowing setting.
Retighten wingnut.
Pull back on the oPEN/CLoSE lever to apply seed.
Seed Application Recommendations
For best results, sow in two directions with a 45° •
angle between.
Water generously immediately afterward and
•
continue watering moderately for 10–14 days to
keep the soil moist.
After germination, water sporadically to
•
encourage root growth.
