The settings furnished on the Rate Setting Chart are intended as a guide only. Variations in physical characteristics of material applied,
brisk walking speed (3 mph.), and roughness of ground surface may require slightly different spreader settings. Due to the above condi-
tions, EARTHWAY PRODUCTS INC. makes no warranty as to the uniformity of coverage actually obtained from the setting listed.

Rate Setting Worksheet
Desired Application Rate (lbs/1,000 sq ft) _____________
To determine the desired application rate divide the area (sq ft) the bag should cover by the weight of the bag, then multiply by 1,000.
(example: 5000 sq ft / 25 lbs = .005 x 1,000 = 5)
___________Weight of Material Placed in Hopper
- __________Weight of Material Left in Hopper
=
__________Weight of Material Used
50
Length of Test Area
x
______ Width of Spread Area
=
_______Total Spread Area
Divide the Weight of Material Used by the Total Spread Area
=
_________lbs\sq ft
Multiply the lbs\sq ft times 1,000
=
________lbs\1,000 sq ft
Compare the results of your test to the desired application rate.
Adjust the rate setting stop accordingly and run through the test again.
