Spreader settings listed here should be used
as starting points before fine tuning your
calibration. Due to age of spreader and spreader
parts, walking speed of applicator, and individual
preferences to spreader manufacturer set up
instructions, it is impossible to give blanket
settings that are exact.

*Please note: When using mini fertilizer in
a fairway type spreader, especially Vicon,
best results are achieved by removing the
agitator. Use 26 as a starting point with
a Vicon to achieve 200 lbs. product per acre.
