4. ASSEMBLY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. HELPFUL HINTS:
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY
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.
