SIDE SPREAD CONTROL
Patent U.S. 10,993,368
Your EarthWay spreader includes a patented
feature to prevent fertilizer from being spread
to the left side. To activate this feature, slide the lever
below the hopper to the back (if standing behind the
spreader) and position the left wheel 6″-12″ from your
sidewalk or border. This will not waste fertilizer like
competitor designs that leave 7X the fertilizer inside the
wheels from blocking material leaving the impeller.
HELPFUL HINTS
 Read the directions before assembly.
 If your spreader does not spread evenly, be sure “FRONT” on the GEARBOX points to the front of the spreader. The
impeller must turn clockwise when pushing forward. Reversing the GEARBOX during assembly will cause issues.
 Your spreader is calibrated for three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed. Slower or faster speeds will
change the spread pattern. Wet fertilizer will also change the spread pattern and flow rate. Do not use powdered
materials as it will damage the gearbox.
 Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the GEARBOX or dirt may enter.
PRIOR TO ASSEMBLY YOU WILL NEED: AN ADUSTABLE BOX WRENCH
