If necessary, adjust the rate dial to achieve the
recommended amount to be applied and repeat
the procedure. Once the correct application rate
is achieved, repeat this procedure an additional
time to verify the results.
Note:
Designate a new calibration course each
time, so the turf is not damaged.
