SAFETY INFORMATION

  1. Read the information on the chemical package for instructions and cautions on handling and applying.
  2. Wear eye and hand protection when handling and when applying lawn or garden chemicals.
  3.  Never allow children to operate the vehicle or spreader.

OPERATION

Do not use powdered lawn chemicals. They do not give a satisfactory or consistent broadcast pattern.

  1. Estimate the size of the area to be covered and calculate the amount of material required.
  2.  Set the adjustable stop according to the flow setting recommended in the application chart on this page. Also refer to the instructions on the packaging for the material to be spread.
  3. Make sure the control lever is in the “OFF” position.
  4.  Fill the hopper, breaking up any lumpy fertilizer.
  5.  Start the spreader in motion and then pull the control lever forward against the adjustable stop to the “ON” position.
  6. Always move the control lever to the “OFF” position before turning or stopping.
  7. To ensure uniform coverage, make each pass so that the broadcast pattern slightly overlaps the pattern from the previous pass. The approximate broadcast widths for different materials are shown in the application chart on this page.
  8.  For rectangular areas, make two passes across the short ends to create turning areas. For nonrectangular areas, make two passes around the entire border.
  9.  When broadcasting weed control fertilizers, make sure the broadcast pattern does not hit evergreen trees, flowers or shrubs.

IMPORTANT: Minor setting adjustments may be necessary to compensate for humidity and moisture content of the material.

STORING

  1. Empty the spreader after each use, storing left over material in its original bag.
  2.  Rinse the inside of the hopper and the exterior of the spreader and dry off before storing.
  3.  Store in a clean, dry area.

MAINTENANCE

  1. Oil the free spinning wheel and the nylon bushings once a year or more often as needed.
  2.  Before each use make a thorough visual check of the spreader for any bolts and nuts which may have loosened. Retighten any loose bolts and nuts.
  3. Make sure the tires are adequately inflated. Do not inflate beyond the maximum pressure printed on the tire.

Warning WARNING: Over-inflated tires can explode, causing serious injury. To avoid injury, NEVER inflate tires beyond the maximum pressure printed on the sidewall of the tire. ALWAYS use a hand pump to safely inflate tires.
