• Keep spinner blade clean. Excess material build-up can cause an
uneven spread pattern.
• Keep the spinner blade level when spreading.
• DO NOT overload. Maximum capacity of this model is 50 lbs.
• DO NOT use on windy days.
• Spread header strips at the ends of the area OPPOSITE of the
direction of spreading. This will provide a “turn-around” area, an
area to re-align the spreader for the return spread.
• Example shown is for 6 ft. wide spread. Make the first spread pass
at one-half the spread width from the edge of the spreading area or
in this case, approximately 3 feet (or one big step).
• Additional spreading passes will be at the full spread width or
approximately 6 ft. apart.
• TAKE A SIGHTING AT THE FAR END. Keep your eye on the
sighting as you spread. You will not need to wonder where you are
or where you have been. Continue until spreading is completed.
• Leftover fertilizer can be spread under trees and other high feeding
areas without showing “edge of spread” lines.
