Broadcast Spreader

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 (

pay special attention to the 

inside & outside of tubing - it’s easiest to do while assembling

) with light oil, Fluid Film

®

 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.
