ASSEMBLY and OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

PLEASE CALL IF YOU ARE MISSING ANY PARTS, HAVE ANY DIFFICULTY IN ASSEMBLY, OR HAVE ANY QUESTIONS

REGARDING THE SAFE OPERATION OF THIS SPREADER. THIS MODEL INCLUDES LIFETIME TECHNICAL SUPPORT

HELPFUL HINTS:

; 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 after each use as some fertilizer may become stuck on the impeller blades and 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. To prevent rust, please coat all metal surfaces, also inside tubes where possible, with a light oil or WD-40. Wash between the shut off plate and bottom of the hopper.

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

; If you use Rock Salt remove the agitator to prevent damage to the gearbox and remove salt from the hopper daily. Rock Salt will reconstitute back into a solid block over night and will damage your spreader.

For normal operation both doors should be fully opened. To reduce flow to the left side, partially or completely close the door over the rear

(LARGE

) hole. To reduce flow to the right side, partially or completely close the door over the front (SMALL) hole. Close both doors for a narrow center spread pattern.

WARNING:

If the optional side deflector is being used in the down position, the plate over the rear (LARGE) hole MUST BE CLOSED or an over application of material will occur.
