If your spreader does not spread evenly, be sure the FRONT on the gear box points to the front of the spreader. The impeller must turn clockwise. Reversing the gearbox will cause the impeller to turn counter clockwise. Clean the impeller plate after each use. Fertilizer stuck on the impeller blades will cause uneven spreading. .. Your spreader is designed to be pushed at three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed. Slower or faster speeds will change the spread patterns. Wet fertilizer 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. .. Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gearbox or dirt may enter. 1. Remove and identify loose parts from carton. 2. Position hopper on side. Install frame using (4) 1/4-20 x 1-1/2” Pan Head Philips machine screws and (4) 1/4-20 nylon insert locknuts. First put bolts through holes in frame then through holes in bottom of hopper. Secure with locknuts. Tighten these locknuts now. PAGE 1 3. Install impeller onto pinion shaft. Insert 1/8” x 1 ” cotter pin through impeller then through pinion shaft. Use hole nearest gear box. Spread cotter pin to prevent from falling out. 5. A - Install lower handles onto axle to both sides as shown. Now insert 1 1/2” bolt through first hole in lower handle. Then through frame brace. NOTE: Dimples on frame brace must be facing toward gear box as shown. Next into threaded connector in cross brace. DO NOT TIGHTEN YET. B - Next insert 1 1/2” bolt through other end of frame brace and through second hole in frame install locknut. DO NOT TIGHTEN YET. C -Now insert 2 1/4” bolt through second hole in lower handle and through first hole in frame. 4. Install gear box by inserting the pinion shaft into hole in center of hoppers bottom. The word “FRONT” on the gearbox must point to Front of the hopper. NOW GO BACK AND TIGHTEN ALL NUTS AND BOLTS STARTING WITH FIRST STEP. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. PAGE 2 6. In-stall drive wheel to axle using pin hole nearest to lower handles as shown. Insert 2” cotter pin through wheel and through axle. Bend with pliers to prevent pin from falling out. Next slide the wheel spacer and then the outer wheel and cotter pin through the axle only. 7. Install inner coast wheel to axle, then wheel spacer and then the outer coast wheel and install cotter pin using outside hole. As shown, insert 1” cotter pin through axle (not thru the wheel). Bend with pliers to prevent pin from falling out. TURN SPREADER UPRIGHT ON TO WHEELS. 8. NOTE: BEFORE INSTALLING GAUGE AND UPPER HANDLES TO HANDLE SHAFT, UPPER HANDLES FEATURE THREE POSITIONS FOR OPERATOR’S COMFORT. You can select lower, middle or upper positions for best fit to the operator. Insert 2.” bolt through the Gauge, then upper handle and finally through handle. DO NOT TIGHTEN LOCKNUT YET. 9. Insert pivot rod into shut off plate as shown. Turn to lock in place. 10. Insert other end of pivot rod into pivot and bracket assembly as shown. Turn to lock in place. PAGE 3 11. Install handle shaft to lower handles and pivot & bracket assembly as shown. Using (4) 1 .” bolts and (4) locknuts. Tighten bolts and nuts now. 12. Install (1) 1/4-20 regular nut (not a locknut) on to control rod as shown. 13. Install flattened end of control rod in to lever on gauge as shown. Turn to lock in place. Next push lever forward to setting “0”. Align control rod with hole in pivot bracket, pull lever backward to insert control rod through hole in pivot bracket. Now install 1/4-20 regular nut on to control rod. DO NOT TIGHTEN NUTS YET. 14. Pull lever back to setting “30” as shown. Next push pivot & bracket forward so that the shut off plate in the hopper is in the full open position. REMEMBER SETTING “30” ON THE FLOW CONTROL LEVER MUST PLACE THE SHUT-OFF PLATE IN THE FULL OPEN POSITION TO BE PROPERLY CALIBRATED. Now tighten the nuts against the pivot bracket to prevent change in calibration. 15. Insert large hair pin clip to pinion shaft on inside of hopper. Note: Position of flat side of hair pin clip. This pin should be installed as shown. PAGE 4 16. Tension on the flow control lever may be adjusted by tightening or loosening the tension nut as shown. 17. For normal operation both plates should be fully opened. To reduce flow to the left side, partially or completely close the plate over the rear (large) hole. To reduce flow to the right side, partially or completely close the plate over the front (small) hole. Close both plates for a narrow center spread pattern. WARNING: If the optional side deflector is being used in the down position, the plate over the rear (large) hole MUST BE CLOSED or an over application of material will occur. The settings furnished on the Rate Setting Chart are intended as a guide only. Variations in physical characteristics of material applied, walking speed, and roughness of ground surface may require slightly different spreader settings. Due to th...
