ABOUT YOUR 175LB AERATOR SPREADER
This 175lb tow behind drop spreader has a roughed steel construction and is designed to spread fertilizer and
other materials. Materials such as Powders, Manure, Top Soil, and Gravel have the wrong physical
characteristics and should not be used with this spreader. Never exceed the rated load capacity of 175lbs
when operating the spreader.
Slower or faster speeds will change the spread patterns. Wet spreading material will also change the spread
pattern and flow rate. Clean your spreader thoroughly after each use.
