HOW TO ESTABLISH A SETTING RATE

Step 1: Use Chart 1 to estimate the number of LBS/1,000 square feet of coverage (Example: 20LB bag with 10,000 square foot coverage = 2.0LBS/1,000 square feet)
Step 2: Find the closest LBS/1,000 square feet in Chart 2 that you estimated using Chart 1 (Example: 2.0LBS/1,000 square feet = Spreader Setting of 13)
