HELPFUL HINTS:
READ THE DIRECTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY
;
If your spreader does not spread evenly, be sure the FRONT on the gear box points away from the tow bar of the spreader.
The impeller must turn clockwise. Reversing the gearbox will cause the impeller to turn counter clockwise. Clean the
impeller plate after each use. Fertilizer stuck on the impeller blades will cause uneven spreading.
;
Your spreader is designed to be pulled at three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed. Slower or faster speeds will
change the spread patterns. Wet fertilizer will also change the spread pattern and flow rate. Clean and dry your spreader
thoroughly after each use. A coating of light spray oil will help prevent corrosion. Wash between the shut off plate and
bottom of the hopper.
;
Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gearbox or dirt may enter.
