Scotts Turf Builder Classic Drop Spreader is a great product, making it super simple to spread any type of granules on your lawn, garden or whichever surface you desire. Holding enough granules to treat up to 10,000 sq. ft. of lawn, Scotts Turf Builder Classic Drop Spreader will keep going when other drop spreaders would limit you. This spreader will literally "drop" the granule right on the lawn without flinging it around.
Works great with Milky Spore Lawn Spreader Mix.
Usually there is a list of settings on the product for which setting on the spreader to use. If this spreader isn't listed on the product, there are multiple ways to calibrate the Scotts Turf Builder Classic Drop Spreader. Follow the instructions on the description below.

Application Tips:
In cases where you do not have a tested setting, you can test your estimated setting by placing that amount in the spreader and covering a matching area. So, in this case, put 5.75 pounds in the spreader and test it in a 1000 square foot area (which is 50 feet by 20 feet). We recommend a low setting, between 1/4 and 1/3 of the potential range of the spreader to start.
Calibrating the spreader:
Check the calibration by first adjusting your micrometer setting to 6. Turn the spreader over so that you are looking at the outside of the bottom of the hopper. Use your foot to hold down the trigger. With the micrometer set at 6 and the trigger squeezed against the handle, the front edge of the projecting ridge on the shut-off bar should be aligned with the calibration line located on the 2nd or 3rd tooth from the center. To adjust the alignment,, use a small wrench to turn the black calibration screw at the lower end of the control wire leading from the micrometer rate setting barrel. Adjust the screw until the calibration line and raised ridge or front edge of the shut-off bar meet.
For Rectangular Lawns: Apply two header strips across each end for a turning area. Then apply back and forth in the longest direction.
For Irregular-Shaped Lawns: Apply one header strip around the entire lawn for a turning area, then apply back and forth.
Spreader Overlap: To avoid streaks or misses, overlap spreader patterns approximately 1-1/2 feet (50 cm). Do not leave spreader open when making turns.
