Make sure that the sprinkling opening is closed when filling (do not squeeze the handle).
Turn the adjustment screw until the correct setting value is visible.
Do not fill the spreader on the lawn.
Accidentally spilled grit can cause burns.
Also be careful on stone or concrete slabs, iron-containing fertilizers (e.g. with moss killer) can lead to rust stains. Sweep away if necessary.
Work at a walking speed of approximately 1m/s.
To avoid over-fertilization or burn damage, always close the spreader when turning or reversing.
Always push the spreader before squeezing the handle to open the spreader.
Release the handle before you stop running.
Never leave any leftover product in the shaker. Pour any leftover material back into the package, close it tightly and store it in a dry place.
Wash the spreader thoroughly after each use to remove all product residue (especially in the area of the axle).
Sometimes hot water is necessary to remove the last stuck-on residue.
Allow the spreader to dry completely.
Thorough cleaning is particularly important after spreading road salt to avoid rust formation!
Lubricate the wheel and disc axle regularly with spray oils. Please do not use heavy oils or greases, as dirt will stick to them and can lead to premature wear through abrasion.
