Don't put in more material than you want to spread. To empty, just keep driving. To Clean after fertilize use, I always backed mine in a pond and sloshed it around, pulled it out, raised the lids, let the sun dry it out and finally lubed it up real good with used motor oil. Ken Sweet

Wonder if my 500 cc Polaris four wheeler will pull this loaded?

I'd be surprised if you can hook it up.

The Ezee Flow that I use won't hook to mine because the operating lever hits the back rack on the ATV.

If you can attach it, I think the 500 will pull it. because it wont have much tongue weight at all

Mine is similar to the one linked. It is about 8 ft between the wheels

When I get done, I rinse it well with water and let it dry, then come back later and mist it with a mix of diesel fuel and motor oil that I keep in a garden sprayer

Just finished overhauling a 10 foot EZEE Flow and posted pictures in a new thread. Will spread Ag Lime and pelletized anything plus small seed if you mix with fertilizer. Let me know if you have any questions. I would guess they are made the same.

Hey HCJ Tractor,

I just noticed that we are both in the upstate of SC. Where did you find your spreader? I found mine on one of those country drives when I saw the tongue sticking up out of some grass. I had been looking for one for a while and it was pure luck. I grew up in Ohio and finding old implements in the upstate of SC is a little difficult. Let me guess....you are planting food plots.

Saturday I found 2 EZ Flows and 1 John Deere all at the same place. No one was home, so I did not get the prices? Ken Sweet

sorry for the late reply, but I found mine on Craigslist. I am in Greenville, and yes, food plots are my brand of farming. Where can you get ag lime around here? What does it cost? I still have not picked up this spreader yet. Hope to get it this weekend and look it over more closely.

The direction and settings you have inside the lid is what im looking for. I have an old Oliver 8ft drop spreader and the direction sheet is gone. If you could shoot me a picture of it that would be great.
