Sunbeam broadcast spreader usage tips

• Determine the size of the area that you'll be fertilizing and estimate the amount of fertilizer required. Make sure that you have enough fertilizer to cover the area.
• Make sure that the flow control arm is in the off position so the flow control plate is shut before filling the hopper with fertilizer.
• Fill the hopper with fertilizer. Break up any lumps of fertilizer in the hopper so fertilizer spreads evenly.
• Set the proper flow rate setting and determine the required speed of application.
• Start the tractor in motion and open the flow plate to apply the fertilizer.
• Close the flow plate before stopping the tractor to avoid creating a pile of fertilizer on the turf.
