Calibration

SHUTOFF
BAR

Your AccuGreen® 2000TM Spreader was calibrated at
the factory. You may check the calibration as follows:
1. Adjust the micrometer setting to 6.
2. Squeeze the trigger against the handle.
3. The front edge of the shutoff bar should be
aligned with the calibration line engraved on the
bottom of the hopper.
4. To adjust alignment, use a small wrench to turn the
black calibration screw at the lower end of the control
wire leading from the micrometer insert.

To use your new AccuGreen 2000 spreader:
®

Set up the stand and handle

5. If the lawn product you purchased does not give the setting for your
Scotts® AccuGreen® spreader, you can test for the proper setting.
Empty the number of pounds the manufacturer recommends for
1,000 square feet into the spreader. Adjust the spreader to a very
low setting and spread product over a 1,000-square- foot area
(50 by 20 feet, 33 by 30 feet, or equivalent). Adjust the setting
upward after judging how much product has been applied to the
test area. Remember: it is safer to under-apply with the test and
increase setting later as needed. Some fertilizers can burn your
lawn if over- applied.

1. Lay the spreader down so that it rests on the
front of the hopper. Lift the stand and brace,
then spread the sides of the brace and insert
the ends into the holes in the stand.
2. Place the spreader upright on its wheels. Raise
the top half of the handle to the upright position
and tighten the wing nuts by hand. With our
patented locking wing nuts, no tools are needed.
NOTE: Reverse steps 1 and 2 for convenient, compact
storage of your AccuGreen® 2000TM spreader.

Follow these application tips for

For best results, use a Scotts Lawn
Fertilizer or Grass Seed Product.

First check the back of your Scotts® product
package for the proper rate setting number
under the heading “Scotts Drop.” Some
other lawn product manufacturers provide
settings for Scotts drop spreaders, but using
Scotts products will assure the best possible
results. (If you already purchased a product
which does not provide a setting for Scotts
drop spreaders, you can use the method
described in #5.)
Be sure spreader is turned off (trigger
control is away from the handle)(A).
Always fill the spreader on the driveway or
sidewalk — not on the lawn. Turn the
micrometer rate setting barrel (B) until the
proper number is visible in the window.
Ready? Start walking, then squeeze the
trigger to open the spreader (C).
Always push the spreader when applying
product. When pulled backward while
open, the spreader may apply an excessive
amount and damage the lawn.

If your lawn is rectangular, apply product the longest
direction. Apply two header strips across each end
for a turning area. Do not leave the spreader
open as you turn — shut it off as you reach the
end of a strip, then open it as you begin the
next one.
If there are trees in the lawn, shut off the
spreader just before getting to the trunk, then
move to the opposite side and continue with the
spreading pattern.
If your lawn is an irregular shape, apply a header
strip completely around it. Then apply product
back and forth in the longest direction,
shutting off the spreader when you reach the
header strip.
Avoid “skips” or missed streaks. This means
slightly overlapping each strip over the edge
of the previous strip by lining up the arrow
on the hopper with the wheel track from the
previous row. Do not use the wheel for
alignment.
TIP: Applying a slight amount of water to
your lawn prior to using the spreader will
highlight your rows, making consistent
ARROW
application easier.
