CLEANING AND STORING UNIT

NOTE: FERTILIZER IS EXTREMELY CORROSIVE. After spreading material, completely wash and dry ATV Spreader. A light coat of oil on all metal parts and motor will help prevent rust- ing and corrosion.

1:(Q) Can I leave the ATV Spreader connected to my ATV when it is not in use? (A) Yes, however to reduce the possibility of damage to the spreader, it is highly recommended that the hopper is empty.

2:(Q) Should I operate my ATV differently when the ATV Spreader is loaded?

(A) Yes, the additional weight in the rear of the ATV will cause the front-end of the ATV to be lighter. Care must be taken when traveling up

and down hills due to this shift in weight.

3:(Q) What is the best way to set the dispensing amount? (A) Set the adjustment stop to the position in which you feel will provide the best coverage. Turn on spreader and open the Feedgate. Spread material for about 20 feet and then walk back to verify coverage. Reposition Adjustment Stop as appropriate.
