1) Put a small amount of material in the spreader to determine the spread width of your product.
2) Now you can refer to your calibration chart of Gate Settings and Pounds per minute as a guide. (Due to the fact that material varies you may
need to make your own chart by setting your gate at a number and weighing the amount of material that comes out in 1 minute and carry this
out for all gate settings.)
Exercise
: Let’s say you were in the field and needed to apply 3.5lbs. of fertilizer per 1000sq. ft. Assume you were spreading at 5 mph or 440 ft
per minute and your spread width was 14ft., you would cover 6160 sq ft in 1 minute. Then divide this by 1000 to get the thousands . Take 6.16
thousands X the application rate of 3.5lbs and this will give you the total of 21.56 lbs. per minute needed to meet the application rate. Refer to
your chart to find gate setting. In this instance you will need to set the gate between 11 and 12.
Step 1 :

Loosen Shaft Coupler
Step 3 :
Remove Spinner
Step 4 :
