ABOUT YOUR PUSH SPREADER
This push spreader is designed to spreader a wide range of materials (Fertilizer and Grass Seed).
Materials such as Powders, Manure, Top Soil, Gravel, and Mulch have the wrong physical characteristics
and should not be used with this spreader. Never exceed the rated load capacity of 100lbs when
operating the spreader.
Your spreader needs to be pushed at three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed. Slower or faster
speeds will change the spread patterns. Wet spreading material 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.
Ensure that the FRONT of 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. Spreading material stuck on the impeller blades will cause uneven spreading.
Do not open the gear box or dirt may enter these gears are permanently lubricated at the factory.
Technical specifications on the push spreader are provided in the “Specifications” section of this manual.
