IMPORTANT: Application rates (shown on chart) are
affected by humidity and mixture content of material (granu-
lar and pellet). Minor adjustment of the flow rate setting may
be necessary to compensate for these variables. The rate
chart is calculated for light and heavy application. The faster
you walk, the wider the broadcast width. A variation in speed
will determine the flow rates and width of broadcast.
NOTE: We do not recommend the use of powdered
materials due to difficulty in obtaining a satisfactory or
consistent broadcast pattern.

1. Apply a little automotive grease to the sprocket and gear.
2. Oil nylon bushings on sprocket shaft. See figure 17.
3. Oil axle/shaft bushing on axle as shown in figure 17.
4. Oil right hand wheel bearing as needed.

1. Do not store spreader with any material in hopper.
2. Clean your spreader after use. Flush thoroughly with
water.
3. If for any reason the axle, gear and sprocket assembly
is disassembled, be sure to mark position of parts as
they are removed. Drive wheel and sprocket position
determine relation direction of spreader plate. With
reassembly of gear and sprocket use shim washers as
needed for minimum backlash. Add grease to gear and
sprocket.
4. If agitator wire becomes damaged or worn it can be
replaced. Loosen 3/8" hex nut at top end of sprocket
shaft until agitator wire is free. Remove old agitator wire
from hole in agitator sleeve and replace with new agita-
tor wire. Position agitator wire so that sprocket shaft
turns freely and tighten 3/8" hex nut on top of sprocket
shaft. See figure 18.
