User questions & answers

Question:	would it work well for powdered lime
Answer:	Just bought a Classic Drop Spreader for use with pulverized (powdered) lime. Worked great with a 40 lb. bag and a setting of 14. Took a few passes to use up the bag at the recommended application rate found on the bag of lime. Cross (perpendicular) application was recommended by the lime supplier. Tried to apply a bag of lime with a rotary spreader (Scotts 2000) and wound up with clogging due to the insufficient hole size even at a setting of 11. Recommend you use granular lime with the rotary spreader. Seems to work well for me with the Scotts 2000.
Question:	can you buy replacement tires
Answer:	Replacement wheels are available from Scotts. Please reach us through the "Contact Us" page on scotts.com.
Question:	Does it say where this spreader is made
Answer:	The spreader is made in California.
Question:	How is the spread when used for salt in the winter? Does it have a good spread or does it just trickle to the floor with very little spread
Answer:	I bought this 5 years ago and only use for salt in the winter, the metal frame finally gave out in the beginning of the 6th winter. Spreads salt fine as long as the wheels turn. Not great for built up ice pack on driveway. Works great for normal use at home.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the gear box have to be lubed annually if its enclosed
Answer:	There was no grease or oil on mine out of the box. First thing I did after assembly was follow the lubrication instructions in the manual.
Question:	Will this work with sand
Answer:	I've only used it for salt. If the sand is coarse it should work without running out through the gate. If the sand is too fine I think it will leak by no matter how tightly you close the feed gate.
Question:	What is the height of the handles off the ground? i'm 6'4" and most spreaders are too short for me
Answer:	The overall height would be 33.63" for this spreader.
Question:	Is there a chart to set Agway spreader settings to match the settings on Scott's fertilizer bags
Answer:	There is no chart. The manual says that for light applications, set the opening to 3, medium 4, heavy 5. That really doesnt tell you S***. My solution is fairly simple. Set your Scotts, or whatever you are using, to the setting recommended on the bag. Measure the width of the opening. If the length of the opening is anywhere close to the opening on your walk behind, set your agri fab to the same width. That should give you very close to the setting you need for your agri fab

User questions & answers

Question:	The description states "Features comfortable foam handle grip" but the picture shows a bare metal bar. Which is correct
Answer:	This is just a guess but I'd say 6 feet on each side so 12 feet total. This is the spreader that all other spreaders should try and be. This is by far the best spreader I have had ever.
Question:	Is this good for Ice Melting
Answer:	It will fit on a normal lawn mower. It’s not really designed for a large tractor with a drawbar. You might have a inch wide opening at most. Thing really works great!!
Question:	Would this unit be good for in the winter spreading rock salt
Answer:	Check out the website www.daytonnursey.com. The site tells you the best time to apply granular lime and the Scott’s drop spreader setting. Also, it tells you not to apply fertilizer within 2 weeks of applying the granular lime. I would even wait 4 weeks before applying any fertilizer. In addition, I would water in the granular lime after applying it to avoid the possibility of burning the grass in hot weather. Finally, I’ve never used (it wasn’t available) granular lime, only powdered lime and that drop spreader setting is either 6 or less. Hope this helps.

• EVEN SPREAD - The EV-N-SPRED 3-hole drop shut-off system ensures an even spread pattern and provides a feathered spreading edge for accurate applications.The drop rate of the seed or fertilizer can be adjusted to accommodate narrow sections of lawn.
• FULLY ENCLOSED, HEAVY-DUTY GEARBOX - One of the most common problems with broadcast spreaders is the chute’s tendency to become clogged or blocked. Because of the gearbox’s design, it is virtually impossible to block, even when it is being used in moist or damp conditions. This makes the spreading process significantly easier.
• DURABLE CONSTRUCTION - Walk-behind broadcast spreader features an epoxy powder coated "Diamond" chassis and steel “T” bar handle. The wide set tires and frame are essential to even weight distribution when operating such a heavy duty spreader. The large, pneumatic tires will not go flat and make it easy to use on an incline or over uneven turf.
• MAXIMUM CAPACITY - The 40lb/18kg capacity rustproof poly hopper provides a low profile to keep it out of the way in the tightest area. A Rate Calculation Matrix is included to assist is setting for all of today’s granular products including organic materials.
• MADE IN AMERICA - All Earthway products are designed and constructed locally in the USA at our headquarters in Bristol, Indiana. Assembly Required.

User questions & answers

Question:	How many pounds of fertilizer does this spreader hold
Answer:	It hold the contents of a 5000 sq ft Scott’s fertilizer product. Think that is about 15-20 lbs. nice unit but you have to be careful on the opening since there is no established way to know in advance the flow. Trial and error. Start at low setting and take it slowly step by step.
Question:	Anything I have ever spread just gives scotts spreader settings, so how do you know what the equivalent setting is using the earthway
Answer:	The spreader comes with a chart that you can use. You basically look at the lbs of the bag you bought vs the sq ft that the bag says it covers. You can use those numbers in the chart to get a value, then you look at another chart it came with and that tells you the setting to use on the spreader. I can't say it is 100% accurate, but that is how they say to do it. I used mine for the first time a few weeks ago and the amount coming out seemed about what I thought it should. Hope that helps.
Question:	Does this have sidespread control
Answer:	yes, on the left side
Question:	Can you broadcast pellets like milorganite and shin nong pro
Answer:	I bought mine to use to spread Milo. I usually throw down 12 bags. Sadly, this spreader doesn’t hold an entire bag so I had to refill constantly. I ended up buying a Lesco 80lb spreader and called it a day. It can fit nearly 3 bags at a time. I also use BayState Fertilizer which is similar to Milo and. I can fit 2 of the 40lb bags easily. One other thing I wasn’t a fan of was it seemed like products like grubex empties way too quickly when on the “correct” setting, so make sure you use your judgement and adjust the setting as you go. Hope this helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this spreader be used for rock salt for driveways? Don't see if anyone asked this yet. Thanks
Answer:	Yes, in winter the BS36BH Broadcast Spreader can handle bagged rock salt that has been filtered through a screen to eliminate clumps. Rock salt delivered in bulk is not recommended. In addition, this tow behind will also handle sand and other ice melt agents.
Question:	Does the gear box have greese in it
Answer:	The gear box does not have grease in it.
Question:	Can this be used with a real tractor? one that has pto and a drawbar
Answer:	I would think much too small to use with a large tractor! This drives from the wheels -- not PTO driven. Hitch is not made to hook to a drawbar.
Question:	does it have an agitator
Answer:	I have a Brinly tow behind fertilizer spreader. It has a single short section of stiff wire about two inches or more long that is in the bottom of the hopper and attached to the vertical shaft that drives the rotating spreader below. The wire rotates in a horizontal plane at the bottom of the hopper to break up the fertilizer so it can drop through the opening and onto the rotating spreader below. It seems to work well as long as the fertilizer in the hopper does not have a lot of real hard lumps. If your fertilizer has got moist at some time and dried out leaving it with hard lumps, then it is best to break them up by hand before trying to spread it. I hope this answers your question.

User questions & answers

Question:	Wheels in one pic are bolted together with 4 bolts and nuts, but the pic of the "whole" do not show the bolts. are they 2 or 1 piece wheels
Answer:	If I remember correctly they are 1 piece wheels, but I was never successful in getting it assembled.....
Question:	Does this have plastic gears? I have read a lot about these and ones with plastic gears wear out quickly
Answer:	No! The drive and the lever that sets the opening are metal. The covering over the metal is plastic to protect it from the elements. If I were allowed to take a picture and attach it, I would, it is NOT plastic. Most of the wear and tear parts are metal with the exception of the hopper, inflatable wheels, and the little fan that distributes the product from the hopper. The drive which determines how fast the little fan moves to distribute the product rotates based on the speed you are going. This is hooked to the same metal bar that rotates the wheels and then to the part that rotates the fan. I’m sure that I’m not using all the proper names because I’m not a mechanic, but hopefully this all is a non-techie view. The machine operates exceptionally well, and I can easily compare it to the ones costing $250 dollars. The mechanisms are all built the same with the exception of the hopper and the fan which distributes the production; in the $250 spreader these are metal. However, both still only spread 4’. If you spend more $400, you can get a spreader with an axial; this doesn’t have one! The wheels on this are big and far better than the $250 one I had! Hope this helps!
Question:	Where is it made? What country
Answer:	Made in Illinois, USA.
Question:	How heavy duty is it? We live on a hill, just wondering if it’s easily flipped
Answer:	It seems to be well built. Worked great for us. We did use it on a small slope and simply ran the lawn tractor up and down rather than crossway. But no experience on a serious hill.

Answer:	I use this frequently to keep the deer from chewing on plants.
Question:	Rechargeable? If not what size batteries
Answer:	I believe the label says to apply every 30 days or as needed. I found that I needed to apply it every 10-14 days or so. And of course after it rains you need to reapply. I found it works well but it got kind of expensive having to reapply so often.
Question:	Will it spread rock salt or only the smaller, more evenly sized (and more expensive) chemicals
Answer:	No it won't keep plants from growing. We use it to keep animals away from our bamboo. It works to keep them away.

Question:	Will this spreader work with the X-series of John Deere mowers? Just wondering how the spreader will line up with the hitch on my mower
Answer:	We have a John Deere 320 and it works great.
Question:	how does this spreader work with grass seeds? I saw only fertilizer mentioned. Need to reseed 2-3 acres
Answer:	I used in 15 acres with fertilizer and worked very good . Spayed in a width of around 15 ft. I suppose that it will work similar for seeds but I have not tried for that
Question:	Will this spreader work while backing up the tractor or will it damage something
Answer:	I have used this 4 or 5 times and didn't notice any damage or strain. I am assuming you are asking because the augar stick would be spinning backwards. The spreader works very well and is very stable because the tub sits lower then most others and is perpendicular with the axle not parralel over the wheels
Question:	Where is the spreader made
Answer:	I am not sure what these guys are talking about, but I was completely satisfied with this spreader. It is sturdy and not cheaply made. If you assemble it correctly, you will not have a problem. Agri Fab is a US company and their mfg plant is in Ill. Dont believe the fake news!

The Professionals Spreader

The LCO-1000 walk-behind broadcast spreader is designed for lawn and landscape professionals. Featuring a durable, stainless steel frame and an 80-lb hopper capacity, this spreader is built to last. The LCO-1000 can be used spring-fall for the application of granular lawn products like seed, fertilizer, herbicides, and pesticides, and in the winter for granular ice melt.

When it comes to application, accuracy is important. Many spreaders struggle to provide an even spread pattern, often throwing more product to one side or the other. The LCO-1000 offers an extremely wide and precise spread pattern, allowing for fewer passes to get the job done and less worries about over- or under-application. Featuring an easy-adjust settings plate and quick on/off lever, the LCO-1000 makes application easy.

The LCO-1000 features four total grease zerks and quick-open gear housing for easy, tool-free maintenance.

For spreader settings, refer to individual product labels as rates will differ.

To apply using the LCO-1000, walk back and forth across the lawn at a normal rate. Notice the effective width of the application and allow for 6 inches of overlap on each return.
