How to use

Fill the seed hopper with the chosen seeds or granular material according to the product recommendations on the seed packaging. Hold the spreader in one hand and walk at a steady pace, actuating the broadcasting mechanism as required to release seed. For even coverage, maintain an even walking speed and overlap passes slightly. Clean the spreader after use by emptying remaining material and removing debris to prevent build-up; allow to dry before storage.

Usage recommendations

Use seed and granular products whose particle size matches the spreader’s opening for optimal performance. Calibrate by testing a small area first to determine the best walking speed and flow rate. Store the device in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or direct sunlight to preserve materials and mechanical parts.
