Do not apply extra fertilizer or too little fertilizer. Set the spreader to the appropriate setting indicated. Place your spreader on a driveway or other paved surface when filling. This guards against spilling fertilizer on grass. For even coverage, begin walking before you turn spreader to the open position so as to avoid dropping fertilizer in one spot. Be sure the spreader is closed when filling it, when turning to backtrack, or if stopping on lawn.
