ADJUSTING THE EV-N-SPRED

®

 DUAL PORT SHUT-OFF SYSTEM

Next, using the (7) low baking tins position, them in a straight line on 2-foot 

centers across the spread width as shown at the right. 
Adjust the left or right variable throwing ports to EVEN THE SPREAD pattern.   

TIP:

 For large/heavy materials, close the 

LEFT SIDE

 (

LINES

) port slightly 

before you start your EV-N-SPRED

®

 test.  For small/light materials, open the 

LEFT SIDE

 (

LINES

) port fully and close the 

RIGHT SIDE

 (

CIRCLES

) port 

slightly before you start your EV-N-SPRED

®

 test.  With BOTH ports closed, the 

spread is only from the center port, and will give you a 3-4ft spread width in the center 

of the spreader - 

great for medians

.

Begin pushing the spreader several feet before the line of tins and at normal walking 

speed.  Walk along the Center Line, and 

OPEN

 

the Lever to the 

STOP

 3-4 paces 

before the line of tins and continue walking past the tins 1 or 2 paces and 

CLOSE

 the 

Lever and 

STOP

.  

Visually evaluate the material in the baking tins to determine if your 

spread pattern is balanced - 

having the same amount of material in each 

baking tin

.  

Empty each tin back into the spreader, adjust the ports and 

RETEST

 

until you are satisfied that the coverage is balanced.

 

ESTABLISH THE SETTING RATE

Remove the material from the hopper, and mark the distance that you need 

to travel with the spreader to attain the designated coverage area - i.e. 

1,000 square feet using the spread width you determined earlier.  

Above 

is a chart to help determine the distance needed for 1,000 square foot 

calculation.   

Mark the 

START

 and 

END POINTS

 on the surface required for the test.

Weigh a small amount (10-20lbs/4-9kg) of the material, and add that into 

to the spreader.  Using the Setting Matrix included with the spreader, 

estimate a setting rate based on material manufacturers recommendations 

and adjust the 

STOP

 

on the Gauge to that position.  

Now to test, start walking 1-2 paces before the 

START LINE

 and 

OPEN

 

the Lever to the stop and then 

CLOSE

 when you cross the 

END POINT 

LINE

.

Pour the remaining material from the spreader and weigh to calculate the 

amount applied over the area. Adjust the 

Setting Rate

 to a higher number 

if you need to increase the application rate, or to a lower number if you 

applied too much in the test. 

You may need to repeat this process to acquire the exact rate.
