need the following tools:

Needle nose pliers

#2 Phillips screwdriver

Adjustable wrench or ½” box

7/16″ wrench

SIDE SPREAD CONTROL

Your EarthWay spreader includes a feature called side

spread control. This feature turns off fertilizer from being

spread to the left side. To activate this feature, slide the

lever below the hopper to the right (if standing behind

the spreader) and walk along a sidewalk or flowerbed

that is 12″-14″on your left side. Fertilizer will not spread

to the left. This feature is better than a deflector as no

material is wasted by the deflector.

HELPFUL HINTS

Read the directions before assembly.

If your spreader does not spread evenly, be sure the FRONT on the gear box points to the front of the spreader.

The impeller must turn clockwise. Reversing the gearbox will cause the impeller to turn counter clockwise. Clean

the impeller plate after each use. Fertilizer stuck on the impeller blades will cause uneven spreading.

Your spreader is designed to be pushed at three miles per hour, which is a brisk walking speed. Slower or faster

speeds will change the spread patterns. Wet fertilizer will also change the spread pattern and flow rate. Clean

and dry your spreader thoroughly after each use. Coat all metal surfaces (pay special attention to the inside &

outside of tubing - it’s easiest to do while assembling) with light oil, Fluid Film® or silicon spray to help prevent

corrosion. Wash between the shut off plate and bottom of the hopper. Do not use powdered materials.

Gears are permanently lubricated at the factory. Do not open the gearbox or dirt may enter.

IF YOUR SPREADER COMES SEMI ASSEMBLED, SKIP TO STEP #7

Assembly Steps

Step 1: Remove all components and hardware items

from the box. Place the spreader hopper on its side.

Step 2: Install frame using (4) ¼-20 x 1½″Pan Head

Phillips bolts and (4) ¼-20 nylon insert locknuts.

First put bolts through holes in frame then through holes

in bottom of hopper.

Secure with locknuts. TIGHTEN THESE LOCKNUTS NOW.

DO NOT TIGHTEN WITH POWER TOOLS.

TIP: coat stainless steel bolts with wax or grease

before tightening to prevent them from seizing.

gear box as shown.

and through second hole in frame install locknut.

Step 6: Install the axle through the axle hole in the

lower handle and then through the gearbox and then

through the lower handle on the other side as shown.

Assembly and Operation Instructions

P2170_M52164_Rev_May2020_compressed PAGE 4

NOTE: Notch on bearings and lower handles. Bearings

must go through flat side of lower handle (from the

outside to the inside).

NOW GO BACK AND TIGHTEN ALL NUTS AND BOLTS STARTING WITH FIRST STEP. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.

Step 7: Slide axle bushing over axle and into axle

bearing to both sides as shown.

Step 8: Install drive wheel onto the axle and align with

the cotter pin hole nearest to lower handles as shown.

Insert 2″cotter pin through wheel and through axle.

Bend with pliers to prevent pin from falling out.

Step 9: Install coast wheel onto the axle fully, then

using outside cotter pin hole, insert 1″cotter pin through

axle (not thru the wheel). Bend with pliers to prevent pin

from falling out.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Before filling hopper, become familiar with the operation of this spreader.

Obtain proper setting for material to be used from the enclosed SETTING MATRIX included with this spreader, or

from our web site under the MANUALS SECTION.

Move stop bolt on rate gauge assembly to the proper setting.

While pushing spreader forward, pull control lever back to stop bolt.

To stop, push lever forward to close flow holes before you stop moving.

When finished, empty any remaining material from hopper.

Thoroughly wash spreader and dry before storing. A coating of light oil will help prevent corrosion.

If you use Rock Salt, remove agitator when in use to prevent damage to the GEARBOX.

The settings furnished on the Rate Setting Matrix are intended as a guide only. Variations in physical characteristics of

material applied, walking speed, and roughness of ground surface may require slightly different spreader settings. Due to

the above conditions, the manufacturer makes no warranty as to the uniformity of coverage actually obtained from the

settings listed.

NEW FEATURE

The SideSpred-Control™ is a new innovation that eliminates the need to use a side deflector, which can adversely affect

your application rate, to prevent material from being spread into flowerbeds, on sidewalks, or driveways. The

SideSpred-Control™ maintains the correct application rate while it is activated, giving you excellent results in seeding or

spreading while controlling the spread pattern on the left side of the spreader. The SideSpred-Control™ is an EarthWay

exclusive.

SideSpred-Control™ OPERATION

The SideSpred-Control™ lever is located under the right side of the hopper. To operate the SideSpred-Control™, slide

the control lever from the front to the back. This will activate the SideSpred-Control™ for a PARTIAL spread pattern and

prevent material from being spread to the left side of the spreader. Position the left wheel of your spreader 4″–6″from

the sidewalk, flowerbed, or driveway and spread as normal. When you have completed this spreading pass, close the

control lever to “0”, and then open the SideSpred-Control™ by sliding the control lever from back to the front, for a

FULL spread pattern.
