OPERATION

KNOW YOUR SPIKER SPREADER

Read this owner's manual and safety rules before operating your Spiker Spreader.

Compare  the  illustration  below  with  your  Spiker  Spreader  to  familiarize  yourself  with  the  various  controls  and  their 
locations.

FLOW CONTROL LEVER

  Opens and closes the flow 

plate at the bottom of the hopper.

LIFT HANDLE  

 Raises the unit for transport or lowers it 

for spreading and aerating.

PLASTIC WING NUT

  Tightens at desired setting to 

control how far the flow control lever can open the flow 
plate.

HOW TO USE YOUR SPIKER/SPREADER

•  Refer to the instruction label on the material package 

and to the instruction decal on your spreader to help 
determine the proper spreader setting and application 
rate. Also see the Setting Chart on page 13 of this 
manual for a general range of settings for commonly 
used materials.

•  Determine the approximate square footage of the 

area to be covered and estimate the amount of 
fertilizer or seed required.

•  Move the spreader to the area where application is to 

begin.

FLOW CONTROL LEVER

PLASTIC WING NUT

LIFT HANDLE

•  Loosen the plastic wing nut and move it to the desired 

setting. Retighten the nut. See figure 24.

•  Making sure the flow control lever is in the "OFF" 

position, fill the hopper, breaking up any lumps.

•  Lower the aerator spikes to the operating position.
•  Start the spreader in motion and then move the 

flow control lever to the "ON" position (against the 
plastic wing nut) as you travel across your lawn. The 
recommended towing speed is 3 m.p.h. 

•  Do not make sharp turns with spikes in the ground.
•  Raise aerator spikes to transport position when 

crossing over concrete or other hard surfaces.

•  Do not aerate if the ground is extremely hard or dry. 

If ground is too dry, sprinkle or water for one to two 
hours prior to use.

•  Do not aerate if the ground is too wet (muddy).

IMPORTANT:

  Always place flow control lever in the 

"OFF" position to prevent excess fertilizer from being 
released when filling the spreader and when stopping or 
turning.
