APPLICATION TIPS

1.This unit will cover a 4 to 8 foot wide area depending on the material used and the towing speed.

2.To avoid misses or striping, make each pass about 5 feet from the previous one so some overlapping of spread pattern does occur.

3.For easiest application, spread across the shortest edges of lawn first, making two "header" strips for a turning area, and then spreading between the header strips. See figure 6.

4.If lawn is odd shaped, spread a border around the edges and then spread between the border. See figure 6.

5.Keep wheel approximately 4 feet from any area you do not wish to spread.

IMPORTANT: Be careful when using spreader around ornamental plants because weed control chemicals can damage these plants.
