I only use those keys to get all my spreaders the same after one is calibrated. Then from there if one guy walks faster you can calibrate that spreader to that technician.
How often do you replace the impeller? I'm just a home owner and i still seem to go through at least 1 impeller per year because of wear on the offset circle that interfaces with the agitator to make it wobble. I've checked all the potential sources of friction to see if that might be causing it, but everything moves nicely. I do have the permagreen agitator so thinking that might cause extra friction/force when the hopper is full. Do you grease/lube this part of the impeller (I hesitate due to fertilizer sticking to it)
the part that is on the impeller that makes the agitator move is it parallel to the ground flat not angled down? Your impeller should last longer I think the agitator assembly may be lifting up went under load from your agitator and it won’t do this if it’s flat or parallel to the ground.
Great video, thanks for sharing this.
Is there anyway you can do a video on the Lesco calibration keys. Haven’t seen one on RUclips a lot of questions on lawsite. Thanks again great video

Hi i have one that is few years old how do i change the larger gear if its bent? Thank You.
You can buy just the ring gear, larger gear but if it is bent though I would just replace the entire impeller gearset.
@@powerspreaders6651 Sorry a silly question where should i order it?
@@IwrekAzz you can get it at any Site One location or you can order it through us at 941.552.6562
Just replace the impeller gearset. Pull cotter pin and loosen locking collar then pull long side axle out far enough to get out the gearset off.
are all the roll pins the same size on this machine? 1 1/4?
The roll pins are SS 5/32" and they are spiral for extra strength. No roll pins in the axle, those are 3/16" SS cotter pins
@@powerspreaders6651 is that 5/32 x 1 or 5/32 x 1-1/4 ?
