ASSEMBLY and OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

HELPFUL HINTS:

READ THE DIRECTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY

;

If your spreader does not spread evenly, be sure the FRONT on the gear box points to the front of the spreader. The

impeller must turn clockwise. Reversing the gearbox will cause the impeller to turn counter clockwise. Clean the impeller

plate after each use. Fertilizer stuck on the impeller blades will cause uneven spreading.

;

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. Wet fertilizer will also change the spread pattern and flow rate. Clean and dry your

spreader thoroughly after each use. Coat all metal surfaces (inside & outside of chassis) with light oil or silicon spray to

help prevent corrosion. Wash between the shut off plate and bottom of the hopper. Do not use powdered materials.

;

Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gearbox or dirt may enter.
