IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
HELPFUL HINTS:
READ THE DIRECTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY
WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, READ THE DIRECTIONS AGAIN
• Read the towing vehicle owners manual and towing vehicle safety rules. Know
how to operate your tractor before using the tow-behind spreader.
• Read the chemical label instructions and cautions for handling and applying the
chemicals purchased for spreading.
• Wear eye and hand protection when handling and when applying lawn or garden
chemicals.
• Never operate tractor and spreader attachment without wearing substantial
footwear, and do not allow anyone to ride or sit on spreader attachment frame.
• Never allow children to operate the tractor or spreader attachment, and do not
allow adults to operate without proper instructions.
• Always begin with the transmission in first (low) gear and with the engine at low
speed, and gradually increase speed as conditions permit.
• When towing spreader do not drive too close to a ditch and be alert for holes
and other hazards which could cause you to loose control of the spreader and
tractor.
• Before operating vehicle on any grade (hill) refer to the safety rules in the vehi-
cle owner’s manual concerning safe operation on slopes. Stay off steep slopes!
• 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.
• Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gear box or
dirt may enter.
