D B H C D D FIGURE 6 FIGURE 8 5 E OPERATION KNOW YOUR SPREADER USING YOUR SPREADER Read this owner's manual and safety rules before operating your Spreader. Compare the illustration below with your Spreader to familiarize yourself with the various controls and their locations. • • • FLOW CONTROL LEVER • • ADJUSTABLE STOP Check the material package and the Spreader Settings sheet included with your spreader for the proper spreader setting and application rate. Before filling spreader, move the control lever to the "OFF" position. Move spreader onto a flat surface - either a walk or a driveway - and fill. Slide the Adjustable Stop to the desired setting. Start the spreader in motion, then move the control lever forward against the adjustable stop to begin spreading. NOTE: Always place control lever in the "OFF" position while filling spreader and when stopping or turning, to prevent release of excess fertilizer. APPLICATION TIPS • • • FIGURE 9 • FLOW CONTROL LEVER Opens and closes the flow plate on the bottom of the hopper. • ADJUSTABLE STOP Allows the flow control lever to be moved to the same setting repeatedly. This unit will cover a 4 to 8 foot wide area depending on the material used and the towing speed. To avoid misses or striping, make each pass about 5 feet from the previous one so some overlapping of spread pattern does occur. For easiest application, spread across the shortest edges of lawn first, making two "header" strips for a turning area, and then spreading between the header strips. See figure 10. If lawn is odd shaped, spread a border around the edges and then spread between the border. See figure 10. Keep wheel approximately 4 feet from any area you do not wish to spread. IMPORTANT: Be careful when using spreader around ornamental plants because weed control chemicals can damage these plants. HOW TO USE YOUR SPREADER DO NOT EXCEED 6 MPH WHILE TOWING SPREADER ADJUSTING THE FLOW RATE SETTING • Loosen the wing nut that fastens the control to the handle. • Slide the Adjustable stop to the desired setting and retighten the wing nut. See figure 9. FIGURE 10 6 CHECK FOR LOOSE FASTENERS • Make a thorough visual check of the Spreader for any bolts and nuts which may have loosened. Retighten any loose bolts and nuts.
