1. Turn the spreader upside down as shown in ﬁ gure 1.

2. Press the two plugs into the ends of the frame tube.

See ﬁ gure 1.

HINT:

Use a block of wood to help press the plug down

into the end of the tubing.

3. Assemble the two angle brackets and two 1/4" nylock

nuts onto the ends of the longer bolts that are already

assemble to the frame tube.

Do not tighten yet.

See

ﬁ gure 1.

4. Fasten the deﬂ ector to the angle brackets using two 1/4"

x 3/4" hex bolts, 1/4" ﬂ at washers and 1/4" nylock nuts.

Allow the angle brackets to swivel so that the deﬂ ector

curves naturally between the angle brackets and then

tighten all nuts

NOTE:

The top of the hopper should be at least 30" above

the ground. The mounting holes shown in ﬁ gures 3 and 4

will make the top of the hopper even with the vehicle's rear

rack. If exhaust blows against spreader, a higher mounting

position may help.

Position the spreader for adequate clearance if

the vehicle mufﬂ er discharges straight toward

the rear.

IMPORTANT:

Before proceeding, determine if the mounting

brackets, when attached directly to the spreader frame, will

ﬁ t onto the vehicle rack. If they need to be farther apart, use

the extension brackets in ﬁ gure 4.

If you are NOT using extension brackets:

5. Attach the R.H. mounting bracket to the frame tube

using two 5/16" x 2" hex bolts and 5/16" nylock nuts as

shown in ﬁ gure 3.

Tighten.

Repeat for the L.H. mounting

bracket.

8. Attach the spreader's mounting brackets to the vehicle's

rear rack using four 5/16" x 1-3/4" carriage bolts,

mounting clamps and plastic knobs. Use the adhesive

pads to protect the rack. See ﬁ gure 6.

If you are using extension brackets:

6. Attach the extension brackets to the legs of the spreader

frame. Use two 5/16" x 2" hex bolts and 5/16" nylock

nuts per bracket.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

When properly connected, the spreader motor and impeller

will run

clockwise viewed from above

20. Move the spreader's ﬂ ow control lever to the off position

so that the "ON-Off" switch is turned off.

21. Connect the short (fused) wire harness to the vehicle

battery by connecting the red wire to the positive post

and the brown wire to the negative post on the battery.

The wire harness may be left permanently attached to

the battery. See ﬁ gure 12.

22. Connect the long wire harness to the spreader by

connecting the red and white wires to the switch and

the brown and white wires to the spreader motor. Refer

to ﬁ gure 12.

23. Connect the long wire harness to the short (fused) wire

harness. Be sure the wires are clear of any moving parts,

hot engine parts, or pinch points.

24. Use the nylon ties provided to safely secure the wiring

away from hot engine parts, rotating parts and pinch

points.

19. Attach the ﬂ ow control to the motor mount bracket on the

spreader using the 5/16" x 1" carriage bolt, a mounting

clamp and a plastic knob. See ﬁ gure 11.

NOTE:

You can also attach to the rear rack if you use a 5/16"

x 1-3/4" carriage bolt. If you attach to the rear rack, you can

loosely pre-assemble the clamp, bolt and knob to the ﬂ ow

control. The clamp can then be angled down through the

slot in the rack.

NEVER

allow negative pin on plug to come

in contact with positive "hot" post on battery.

Fire or explosion can result!

25. Move the ﬂ ow control lever to the "ON" position. Flip

the "ON-OFF" switch on and check that the motor

runs counterclockwise. If it does not, refer to the wiring

diagram on page 6 and recheck the hookup.

26. Move the ﬂ ow control lever to "OFF". This should turn

the "ON-OFF" switch off. If it does not, you can loosen

the control and rotate it enough that the ﬂ ow control

lever, when moved to the "OFF" position will turn the

switch off. See ﬁ gure 13.

IMPORTANT:

Application rates shown in the chart are

affected by humidity and by the moisture content of

the material (granular and pellet). Some minor setting

adjustments may be necessary to compensate for this

condition.

OVERLAP

REFER

TO CHART

USING YOUR SPREADER

We do not recommend the use of any powdered lawn

chemicals, due to difﬁ culty in obtaining a satisfactory or

consistent broadcast pattern.

1. Determine approximate square footage of area to be

covered and estimate amount of material required.

2. Verify that the spreader motor turns on and off and that

the ﬂ ow control is operating properly.

3. Make sure the ﬂ ow control lever is in the off position

and the closure plate is shut.

4. Set the adjustable stop to the desired ﬂ ow rate, keeping

the ﬂ ow control arm in the off position. Refer to the

application chart on this page and the instructions

on the fertilizer bag to determine the proper ﬂ ow rate

setting. The application chart is calculated for a vehicle

speed of 3 mph (100 ft. in 23 seconds). Faster speeds

require higher ﬂ ow rate settings to maintain the same

application rate.

5. Fill the hopper with the material to be spread, breaking

up any lumps as you ﬁ ll the hopper.

7. Start the vehicle in motion and then open the spreader

closure plate and ﬂ ip the switch to "ON".

OPERATION

HOW TO USE YOUR SPREADER

SETTING THE FLOW CONTROL

1. Slide the Adjustable stop to the desired setting.

2. Move the Flow Control Lever forward until it snaps into

the Adjustable Stop, locking the lever at the desired

setting. See ﬁ gure 14.

OFF

FLOW CONTROL LEVER

ADJUSTABLE STOP

FIGURE 14

STARTING THE SPREADER

1. Move the Flow Control Lever against the Adjustable

Stop and ﬂ ip the "ON-OFF" switch to the on position.

STOPPING THE SPREADER

1. Move the Flow Control Lever to the "OFF" position. Make

sure that the switch is turned off by the Flow Control

Lever.

8. Shut the closure plate before turning or stopping.

9. To insure uniform coverage, make each pass so that the

broadcast pattern slightly overlaps the pattern from the

previous pass as shown in ﬁ gure 15. The approximate

broadcast widths for different materials are shown in

the application chart on this page.

10. When broadcasting weed control fertilizers, make sure

the broadcast pattern does not hit evergreen trees,

ﬂ owers or shrubs.

11. Heavy moisture conditions may require a cover over the

hopper to keep contents dry. The vinyl cover acts as a

wind and moisture shield, but should not be used as a

rain cover.

12. If fertilizer is accidentally deposited too heavily in an

area, soak the area thoroughly with a garden hose or

sprinkler to prevent burning of the lawn.
