(Do not use petroleum based products.) #6-32 Screw #6-32 Screw OPERATION Check the product package for the rate 1. setting, and recommended swath width. Turn the spreader off by pushing the control knob in. Rotate the rate cam to the proper setting. Always fill the spreader on the driveway 2. or sidewalk-not on the lawn. Make sure spreader is in the “OFF” position. Empty after each use. Start spreader moving, then open 3. spreader by pushing the thumb release to the “ON” position. Always push spreader, never pull. Push knob down to close spreader. Hold handle so top of spreader is level. 4. Tipping the spreader too far can cause uneven spreading. The settings and swath widths on the product 5. label are recommended starting points. Always check the delivery rate and pattern on a small area before treating a large area. Actual delivery rate can vary due to weather conditions, operating variables, and condition of the product being applied. See “HOW TO DETERMINE SPREADER SETTING AND SWATH WIDTH” for details. Push spreader 3 1/2 m.p.h. (26 feet in 5 6. seconds) for full 8’ to 10’ spread pattern when applying fertilizer products. Apply header strips at each end of area to be treated then space trips across the area as shown. Push spreader at 2 1/2 mph (18 feet in 5 7. seconds) to reduce width of spread when applying ice melt products to sidewalks. Empty spreader after each use. Return 8. leftover material to its original container. HOW TO DETERMINE SPREADER SETTINGS AND SPREAD WIDTH Two major factors should be considered when determining correct spreader settings of any product: The product application rate, or the amount of material applied per 1,000 square feet. 1. The effective pattern width, or the actual width in which material is applied. Label set2. tings are a guide and can be affected by numerous factors. EFFECTIVE PATTERN WIDTH A simple visual pattern test can be made by operating the spreader over a non- turf area and evaluating the pattern. A more accurate method is to place a row of common, disposable, aluminum cake pans approximately 1 foot on centers. Set the rate cam at a middle setting and make 3 or 4 passes in the same direction as shown. Pour the material collected from each pan into individual bottles of the same size. Set them side by side in order, and visually inspect their volume. The effective pattern width is the distance out from the spreader to a point where the amount of material is 1/2 the average amount in the center pans. This distance is multiplied by 2 to achieve the total effective pattern width. Space for Wheel Track Space Pan 1’0” on Centers APPLICATION RATE Knowing the effective pattern width (for example, 10 feet), measure a distance equal to 100 square feet (10’ x 10’ swath width). Determine the product coverage is pounds/ 100 sq. ft. by the recommended square foot coverage (add two zeroes to the weight of the bag). EXAMPLE: Product weight: 25 lbs. sq. ft. coverage...
