shut-off plate in the bottom of the hopper is closed.
Lightly tighten the hex nuts that fasten the flow control
•
bracket to the control tube.
Set the adjustable stop (B) at "5". Pull the control lever (A)
•
against the stop (B) and verify that the shut-off plate has

OPERATION
15
Do not use powdered lawn chemicals. They do not give a
satisfactory or consistent broadcast pattern.
Estimate the size of the area to be covered and calculate
1.
the amount of material required.
Set the adjustable stop according to the flow setting
2.
recommended in the application chart on this page. Also
refer to the instructions on the packaging for the material to
be spread.
The application chart is calculated for light to heavy
3.
coverage at a vehicle speed of 3 mph, or 100 ft. in 23
seconds. Do not exceed 6 mph.
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
6.
forward against the adjustable stop to the "ON" position.
Always move the control lever to the "OFF" position before
7.
turning or stopping.
To ensure uniform coverage, make each pass so that
8.
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.
For rectangular areas, make two passes across the short
9.
ends to create turning areas. For non-rectangular areas,
make two passes around the entire border.
10. When broadcasting weed control fertilizers, make sure the
broadcast pattern does not hit evergreen trees, flowers or
shrubs.
