Product description
This broadcast spreader from Scotts is built to make lawn care tasks faster and neater, especially when applying seed, fertilizer, salt, or ice melt across medium to large yards. It offers a way to treat up to 15,000 sq. ft. per hopper load while reducing product on driveways and planting beds with a simple edge-control feature.
Key Points
The unit arrives pre-calibrated and ready to use, which helps start chores quickly without extra setup. Its EdgeGuard technology directs granules away from walkways and landscaping, so you spend less time cleaning after spreading. The redesigned hopper and agitator improve flow and reduce clumping, helping maintain consistent coverage across the treated area. Consider that the EdgeGuard works best when used as directed and on level surfaces, according to the manufacturer. 🌱

Usage Recommendations
For even distribution walk at a steady pace and keep the spreader at a consistent height above the turf.

If applying heavier products like ice melt, check flow periodically and shake the hopper lightly to keep the agitator moving. For best results with seed or fertilizer, plan overlapping passes to avoid stripes and ensure uniform coverage. ❄️🚶
