HELPFUL HINTS
Your spreader is almost ready to use. Attaching the control rod and unfolding the handle will require a pair of pliers
to insert pins to secure the control rod.
NOTE: The large opening is designed to allow ice melt to flow through
spreader without the need for an agitator.
+
Your spreader is designed to be pushed at three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed.
Slower or faster speeds will change the spread patterns.
+
Prior to your first use, coat all metal parts (inside and outside tubing) with WD-40 or other spray lube to help
prevent corrosion.
+
Clean your spreader thoroughly after each use. Wash with clean water and dry thoroughly and spray
a light coating of oil on all metal parts (inside all of the tubing) to help prevent corrosion.
+
Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gearbox or dirt may enter.
