175LB TOW-BEHIND SPREADER
ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION INSTRUCTION MANUAL
HELPFUL HINTS:
READ THE DIRECTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY
WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, READ THE DIRECTIONS AGAIN
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 gear box will cause the impeller to turn counter clockwise.
Clean the impeller plate after each use. Fertilizer stuck on the impeller blades
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 your spreader thoroughly after each use. Wash between the shut off
plate and bottom of the hopper.
Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gear box
or dirt may enter.
