Settings for an Imperial 600a Roto-Spreader

Hello all,

I ended up with an Imperial 600a Roto-Spreader with the new house. Trying to figure out the settings and the googles is not being helpful. Anyone familiar with this spreader and know the rate of the settings or which more readily available spreader is similar? Thanks!

You'll have to calibrate it yourself. It will need to be calibrated for every different material you use in it.

Measure a pound of stuff and put it into the spreader. Measure 1,000 square feet and start spreading. Watch how it is flowing to get a feel for how much is going down versus how much you are supposed to apply. Then make your adjustments.

Everyone should do that with every spreader.
