CONSISTENT COVERAGE
To insure consistent coverage, make sure each broadcast pattern slightly
overlaps the previous broadcast pattern as shown in figure below for large
particles. The approximate broadcast widths for different size materials are
shown in Chart B.
WARNING! Do not over apply spreading material. Follow the recommended
coverage rate for each product. Over application will lead to damage and
contamination. If spreading material accidentally hits or deposits too heavily,
soak the area thoroughly with a garden hose or sprinkler to prevent chemical
burning.
6. SPREADING INSTRUCTIONS
CALCULATING AMOUNT OF MATERIAL NEEDED
To calculate the amount of fertilizer you will need to cover your lawn, divide the
coverage amount listed on the label by the weight of the fertilizer bag. For
example a 10LB. bag of fertilizer with coverage of 10,000 square feet will
distribute 1LB. of fertilizer every 1,000 square feet at full rate or 1/2LB. of fertilizer
every 1,000 square feet at half rate. For pre-calculated rates see Chart A
(Example: 25LB. bag with 15,000 sq. ft. coverage = 1.7LB./1,000 sq. ft.). Use
Chart B to find the closest spreader setting (Example: 1.7LB./1000 sq. ft. =
Spreader Setting of 5).
