Helpful Hints?
Thank you for selecting
EarthWay for your
spreader needs. Our
production team in
Northern Indiana takes
pride in building this
spreader. Our customer support team is standing
ready to ensure your success. Please contact us
at www.EarthWay.com to see our full line of
commercial, lawn & garden tools.
Note: Your EarthWay spreader includes a feature
called side spread control. This feature turns off
fertilizer from being spread to the left side. To
activate this feature, slide the lever below the
hopper to the right (if standing behind the
spreader) and walk along a sidewalk or flowerbed
that is 12”-14” on your left side. Fertilizer will not
spread to the left. This feature is better than a
deflector as no material is wasted by the
deflector.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before filling hopper, become familiar with the operation of this spreader.
▪Obtain proper setting for material to be used from the SETTING MATRIX included with this spreader.
▪Move stop bolt on rate gauge assembly to the proper setting and tighten to secure.
▪While pulling spreader forward, push control lever toward the spreader to the stop bolt. To stop, pull lever
forward to close flow holes before you stop moving.
▪When finished, empty any remaining material from hopper.
▪To prevent corrosion, spray a light oil or Fluid Film inside the tubing of the chassis and on all metal parts.
▪If using, Rock Salt, to prevent damage to the gearbox remove salt from the hopper daily. Rock Salt will
reconstitute back into a solid block if left in the hopper overnight and will damage your gearbox if operated with
the salt in place.
The SideSpred-Control™ is an innovation that eliminates the need to use a side deflector, which can adversely affect
your application rate, to prevent material from being spread into flowerbeds, on sidewalks, or driveways. The
SideSpredControl™ maintains the correct application rate while it is activated, giving you excellent results in seeding
or spreading while controlling the spread pattern on the left side of the spreader. The SideSpred-Control™ is an
EarthWay®exclusive.
SideSpred-Control™ OPERATION
The SideSpred-Control™ lever is located on the back of the hopper at the bottom. To operate the SideSpred-Control™, slide the
control lever from the left, to the right. This will activate the SideSpred-Control™ for a PARTIAL spread pattern and prevent material
from being spread to the left side of the spreader. Position the left wheel of your spreader 12”-16” from the sidewalk, flowerbed, or
driveway and spread as normal. When you have completed this spreading pass, open the SideSpred-Control™ by sliding the control
lever from right to left, for a FULL spread pattern.
