HELPFUL HINTS
Read the directions before assembly.
If your spreader does not spread evenly, be sure “FRONT” on the GEARBOX points to the front of the spreader.
The
impeller must turn clockwise when pushing forward
. Reversing the GEARBOX during assembly will cause issues.
Your spreader is calibrated for three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed. Slower or faster speeds will
change the spread pattern. Wet fertilizer will also change the spread pattern and flow rate.
Do not use powdered
materials as it will damage the gearbox.
Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do NOT open the GEARBOX or dirt may enter.
