Knowing the effective pattern width (for 
example, 10 feet), measure a distance equal 
to 100 square feet (10’ x 10’ swath width). 
Determine the product coverage in pounds / 
100 sq. ft. by taking the weight of the product 
and dividing it by the recommended square 
foot coverage (add two zeroes to the weight 
of the bag).

 

 

EXAMPLE: Product weight: 25 lbs. 
sq. ft. coverage: 5,000 sq. ft. 
2500 lbs. - 5,000 sq. ft.  
= .5 lbs. / 100 sq. ft. 
 
Weigh out 15 to 20 lbs. of material and 
spread over the 100 sq. ft. area. Weigh 
remaining material left in hopper and 
adjust rate setting as required. Repeat 
test until application rate is correct.
