HELPFUL HINTS: READ THE DIRECTIONS BEFOREASSEMBLY
THIS SPREADER COMES PARTIALLY ASSEMBLED, REQUIRING YOU TO INSTALL THE WHEELS, HANDLE ASSEMBLY
AND CONTROL ROD. IT SHOULD TAKE APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES WITH THE USE OF TWO 7/16” WRENCHES AND 1
PAIR OF PLIERS.
Clean the impeller plate after each use. Material stuck on the impeller blades will cause uneven spreading.9
Your spreader is designed to be pushed at three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed. Slower or faster speeds 9
will change the spread patterns. Wet material will also change the spread pattern and ow rate.
Clean your spreader thoroughly after each use. Wash between the shut off plate and bottom of the hopper.9
Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gearbox or dirt may enter.9
When using Rock Salt remove the agitator to prevent damage to the gearbox and remove salt from the hopper daily. Rock 9
Salt will reconstitute back into a solid block over night with humidity.
1. Open carton and remove the handle assembly, wheels,
and spreader from carton.
2. Turn spreader upside-down on to the hopper.
