I used a pressure spayer. A couple things to note. Be sure to follow the mixing instructions closely (2 oz per gallon of water). Depending on the severity of your problem, it may take 2-3 applications. I made several applications. My centipede looked burnt following. That said, 2 months later and my lawn is in much better shape. So far so good. Path forward - preventive applications early spring.

It's not recommeded. However, if you do add an adjuvant use Herbi Oil 83/17.

Based on my experience, I would say it's meant for liquids. I don't think it will work well as a spreader, as the spray head clogs easily.

The spreader is not height adjustable. The spreader sits approximately 30.5" off the ground with the legs fully extended. You can remove the bars with a socket/wrench but you cannot move the plate the bars attach to because it is riveted.As others have mentioned removing the bars would make the legs less stable. You could cut a hook/notch into a board to make a temporary spreader just for your particular use.

I guess you could cut open the bag at the top and pour the contents into a regular drop spreader, but this would be an expensive way to treat your lawn. You're paying for convenience and for the adapter on the bottom of the bag to fit onto the SNAP spreader. Other bagged products at your lawn and garden center would be much more economical.

Short answer, NO. The spreader is made for granular material like fertilizer or weed killer. The openings are too small for something like manure.

yes, slow the drop rate and walk slower, also tilt the spreader forward as your walking. You can also tilt the spreader up on one wheel (only one of the wheels spins the spreader wheel) for small strips and around flower beds. some times i use a hand held spreader . I have two of these, i bought in 2008 used all year round salt and fertilizer. I do about 20 yards 5 times a year with fertilizer. Have 12 jobs i salt sidewalks in winter. This would last home owner for a lifetime. Some of the bolts rusted but were easily replace.

Frankly, I can't recommend using it for anything more than it was designed. I guess you could try it since it can be gauged for the amount of salt delivery. For myself, I would be more inclined to buy a spreader specifically for spreading compost.

The spreader can be used to apply lime. We recommend a setting of 10 to apply 30 lbs per 1000 sq. ft.; a setting of 7.5, going over the area twice to apply 40 lbs. per 1000, and a setting of 7, going over the area three times to apply 50 lbs. per sq. ft.

My experience to date is that the Swifter does a great job with ceiling fans (I use the long handled, extendable one). My recommendation is to dust frequently so that dust doesn't build up for more than a week.

I just read the other 2 responses. Again putting in a typical lawn spreader is a bad idea.

I don't see any reason why it isn't possible mechanically, but I think you would be making a mistake by doing so. The spreader is designed to throw seeds to the rear, so if you mount it on the front rack, it will be shooting seeds back toward you. You could rotate it, but then the control rod will not be accessible from the driver's seat. I mounted mine on the rear rack, but I had to make a special support out of rebar to prevent the hopper from tilting. If you're handy with a torch and have the right tools, this is a great unit.

I originally used a small handheld spreader from Amazon...it is red, but I don't remember the brand but was the best seller. It worked OK. I found it easiest to put on a nitrile glove and spread by hand. Keep in mind this stuff will kill everything and you want to deploy it very tactically.

The spreader is light weightIf you put you grass seed in it that's light also. My wife uses it with no problem.

from my experience you need 15 to 20 feet for that wide of spread. I project 15' by 10' at 20' out from the screen

If you are handy and have a welder you could make a bracket to mount the spreader to most anything!!

I use it only for applying salt in the winter. I find that a little maintenance goes a long way, such as cleaning the spreader with water and occasionally putting some oil in the cable housing (at both ends) to keep the cable moving freely.

Having used one of these for many years, I believe it spreads more evenly than any other type of spreader. It slowly meters out the seed as the crank is turned. Technique and wind are keys to a good spread.
