2) Begin to spread the product. As you are spreading you should be able to see the spread pattern in front of you.
Generally, all spreaders will tend to throw fertilizer heavy to the right. As you continue to spread, pull the Accuway
control towards you very slowly (small increments) until you begin to bring the spread pattern directly centered
in front of you.
3) Once you have the spread pattern centered, lock the Accuway cable in place. There should be no reason to reset
the Accuway for that product unless you see that the spread pattern has changed due to bumping the lever. If it has
changed slightly, simply re-adjust the pattern while you're spreading.
Accuway
Accuway balances the spread pattern, by shifting the product placement on the spinner. Placing the product on the
impeller close to the shaft or the center will cause the spread pattern to be heavier to the right as it rides the impeller
for a longer period. If the product is placed on the outer edge of the impeller, the spread pattern will be heavier to the
left (because the spinner is turning clockwise).
1) Start with the Accuway control cable all the way forward or in (this is home base).
Spreader / Sprayer Calibration:
Mixing of liquid or dry product should be in accordance to manufacturers labels. Remember this is designed
for low volume spraying so the mix will be more concentrated.
Remember that your machine is factory set to put down 1/3 gallon of liquid per 1,000 sq. ft ( at 5MPH and
40PSI). For instance, some products call for 1.1 to 1.5 oz per 1,000 sq. ft. We would recommend using 1.3
(median value of 1.1 to 1.5). Since you are using a 1/3 gallon tip, you need to multiply by 3, then multiply that
amount by the number of gallons your put in your tank
1.3 (median value of 1.1 to 1.5) X 3 (1.3 gallon tip) X gallons of water needed. If you were filling a 30 gallon tank
your equation would look like this: 1.3 X 3 X 30 = 117 ounces in 30 gallons of water.
