Storage & Maintenance
- When finished spreading empty hopper of any remaining material
- Thoroughly wash spreader with a garden hose after each use. Some ice melt products, such as magnesium chloride will cause rusting to any stainless steel in wet conditions.
- Be careful not to spray directly in the gearbox
- It is recommended you DO NOT use a power washer on your spreader
- Clean the drive chains with a soft cloth or brush and a solvent containing Mineral Spirits to remove dirt and grime. Re-lubricate the chains using a non-detergent petroleum-based oil with a viscosity of SAE 20 to 40. Chains should be cleaned and lubricated at least once a month.
- Allow to fully dry before storing
- Check tires for proper inflation after storing spreader for long periods. Inflate to 20 psi.
