4. ASSEMBLY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. HELPFUL HINTS:
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY
This push spreader is designed to spreader a wide range of materials (Fertilizer
and Grass Seed). Materials such as Powders, Manure, Top Soil, Gravel, and
Mulch have the wrong physical characteristics and should not be used with this
spreader. Never exceed the rated load capacity of 100lbs when operating the
spreader.
Your spreader needs to be pushed at three miles per hour, which is a brisk
walking speed. Slower or faster speeds will change the spread patterns. Wet
spreading material will also change the spread pattern and flow rate. Clean your
spreader thoroughly after each use. Wash between the shut off plate and bottom
of the hopper.
Ensure that the FRONT of the gear box points to the front of the spreader. The
impeller must turn clockwise. Reversing the gear box will cause the impeller to
turn counter clockwise. Clean the impeller plate after each use. Spreading
material stuck on the impeller blades will cause uneven spreading.
Do not open the gear box or dirt may enter these gears are permanently
lubricated at the factory.

lowest position <downwards> and adjust the positions of these two nuts on
threaded control bar so the three holes at the bottom of hopper closely match the
three holes of adjustable plate (must closed properly).
5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING！Before using the push spreader, review the instructions below and
safety information before operating. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in property damage or injury to the operator or bystanders.
USING YOUR SPREADER
1. Inspect your spreader before each use. Make sure the wheels turn easily, and
the gearbox moves when the spreader is pushed. The hopper should be clean
and free from cracks.
2. Spreader is designed to spread a range of materials (Fertilizer and Grass
Seed). Materials such as Powder, Manure, Top Soil, Gravel, and Mulch have
the wrong physical characteristics and should not be used with your spreader
3. Do not use spreader on windy days when spreading grass seed or herbicides.
4. Determine approximate square footage of the area to be covered and
estimate amount of material required. Please refer to fertilizer manufacturer’s
recommendation. Break up any lumpy fertilizer as you fill the hopper.
5. Before filling the hopper, make sure that the flow control lever is in the“0”
position and the flow control plate is closed.
6. Set the adjustable stop with the flow control lever always in the“0”position.
Every time you are ready to stop or turn back, close the flow control plate to stop
dispersing the material and continue one more stride. This reduces waste and
avoids damaging the lawn with oversaturated product coverage.
7. Follow fertilizer manufacturer’s recommended coverage rate for each product
8. To maintain the same coverage when walking at a different speed, adjust the
flow rate. Reduce the flow setting for slower speeds and increase the flow setting
for higher speeds.
9. Keep the impeller plate horizontal when operating the spreader. Tilting the

14
spreader will result in uneven coverage.
10. Make sure the R pin is installed in the hopper before starting the spreader.
11. Always start walking prior to opening the closure plate.
12. Always close the flow control plate before turning or stopping the spreader.
13. If spreading material is accidentally deposited too heavily in a small area,
soak the area thoroughly with a garden hose or sprinkler to prevent burning of
the lawn.
14. To insure consistent coverage, make sure each broadcast pattern slightly
overlaps the previous broadcast pattern.
15. When broadcasting spreading material, make sure the broadcast pattern
does not hit evergreen trees, flowers or shrubs.
16. Do not over apply spreading material. Follow the recommended coverage
rate for each product. Over application will lead to lawn damage and
contamination.
ADJUSTING THE FLOW
Push the handle to the top position (upwards). Move the position of the wing nut
on the gauge & lever to adjust the three holes between hopper and adjustable
plate when spreading material.

15
CONSISTENT COVERAGE
To insure consistent coverage, make sure each broadcast pattern slightly
overlaps the previous broadcast pattern as shown in figure below for large
particles. The approximate broadcast widths for different size materials are
shown in Chart B.
WARNING! Do not over apply spreading material. Follow the recommended
coverage rate for each product. Over application will lead to damage and
contamination. If spreading material accidentally hits or deposits too heavily,
soak the area thoroughly with a garden hose or sprinkler to prevent chemical
burning.
6. SPREADING INSTRUCTIONS
CALCULATING AMOUNT OF MATERIAL NEEDED
To calculate the amount of fertilizer you will need to cover your lawn, divide the
coverage amount listed on the label by the weight of the fertilizer bag. For
example a 10LB. bag of fertilizer with coverage of 10,000 square feet will
distribute 1LB. of fertilizer every 1,000 square feet at full rate or 1/2LB. of fertilizer
every 1,000 square feet at half rate. For pre-calculated rates see Chart A
(Example: 25LB. bag with 15,000 sq. ft. coverage = 1.7LB./1,000 sq. ft.). Use
Chart B to find the closest spreader setting (Example: 1.7LB./1000 sq. ft. =
Spreader Setting of 5).
