SAFETY
iN FORMATION
1.
Read the information on the chemical package for
instructions and cautions on handling and applying.
2.
Wear eye and hand protection when handling and when
applying lawn or garden chemicals.
3.
Never allow children to operate the vehicle or spreader.
ASSEMBLY
The meanings of symbols used in the illustrations are as
follows:
Do not tighten yet.
Tighten now.
OPERATION
Do not use powdered lawn chemicals. They do not give a
satisfactory or consistent broadcast pattern.
1.
Estimate the size of the area to be covered and calculate
the amount of material required.
2.
Set the adjustable stop according to the flow setting
recommended
in the application chart on this page. Also
refer to the instructions on the packaging for the material to
be spread.
3.
Make sure the control lever is in the "OFF" position.
4.
Fill the hopper, breaking up any lumpy fertilizer.
5.
Start the spreader in motion and then pull the control lever
forward against the adjustable stop to the "ON" position.
6.
Always move the control lever to the "OFF" position before
turning or stopping.
7.
To ensure uniform coverage, make each pass so that
the broadcast pattern slightly overlaps the pattern from
the previous pass. The approximate broadcast widths for
different materials are shown in the application chart on this
page.
8.
For rectangular areas, make two passes across the short
ends to create turning areas. For non-rectangular
areas,
make two passes around the entire border.
9.
When broadcasting weed control fertilizers, make sure the
broadcast pattern does not hit evergreen trees, flowers or
shrubs.
