Introduction
Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new
product owners.
This Electric Spin Spreader has been designed with care
and built by skilled workers using quality materials. It is
exclusively designed to mount on the rear of a small
utility vehicle with a 2" receiver hitch such as ATV’s and
Land Pride Trekers. Also, it will fit on the back of any
Land Pride Disc Harrow, and FPS48. Please thoroughly
read these installation instructions, vehicle Operator
manual and Disc Harrow Operator Manual before
beginning. Especially read information relating to safety
concerns.
Proper assembly, maintenance and safe operating
practices will help you get years of satisfactory use from
your Electric Spin Spreader.
Application
The Land Pride Electric Spin Spreader is a highly
versatile full component package designed to plant or
spread seeds. It can then be used to spread prilled or
granulated fertilizer, lime, gypsum, and other soil
conditioning amendments at distances ranging from 4 ft.
to 20 ft. It can also be used in the off-season to spread
sand or salt for winter icing or slick snow conditions.
This unit has a 12volt remote tether control that can be
operated right from the driver’s seat to turn the spreader
on or off or to set the seed-gate opening to different
application rates.
The Spin Spreader has applications in overseeding of
pastures, grassy runways, open areas, roadsides,
medians, wild game food plots, hunting clubs, hunting
resorts, ranches, farms, game preserves, landscaping,
and hobby farming. It also works very well in gardens and
nurseries to incorporate fertilizer and pelletized gypsum
or lime as soil amendments.
Accessories are available for mounting the spreader to a
2" receiver hitch on a utility vehicle or a Land Pride Disc
Harrow. A Land Pride Drag Harrow and Seed Bed Roller
can be attached behind the Disc Harrow making your
Land Pride Disc Harrow, Spin Spreader, Drag Harrow
and Seed Bed Roller a complete seeding package.

Calibrating the Spin Controller
Refer to Figure 2-4:
Spin Spreader Control
Figure 2-4
1. Thoroughly lubricate the spreader before calibrating.
2. Calibrate the control unit by holding the OFF button
down and momentarily pressing the ON button.
While in the calibration mode, the lights will flash
rapidly. Once calibration is complete, the lights will go
out and the gate will close. The unit is now ready for
operation.
3. Set dispensing amount by pressing the MORE or
LESS buttons to achieve the desired gate opening.
Position 1 is the minimum amount and position 6 is
the maximum amount of material flow. The Material
Flow light flashes when unit is not running (OFF) and
is on solid when unit is running (ON).
4. While moving at a constant rate, start material
spreading by pressing the ON button.
5. Press the OFF button to stop the spin motor and
close the control gate.
IMPORTANT: To assure proper operation, the
Electric Spin Spreader controls should be calibrated
each time it is plugged into the 12 volt receptacle or
if you loose power to receptacle.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the Spin Spreader is
empty and the vehicle is running when calibrating.

NOTE: The MORE or LESS buttons may be
pressed at anytime to achieve the desired material
flow rate.
Field Set-up
!
CAUTION
Wear eye protection to prevent getting chemicals and/or dirt
in the eyes while cleaning the Electric Spin Spreader.
!
CAUTION
Be sure to wear proper protective clothing when servicing or
lubricating your spin seeder. Refer to chemical
manufacturers’ labels for specific clothing requirements.
1. Prior to operation, thoroughly lubricate the Spin
Spreader. Check for proper operation of the
mechanisms by running the spin motor and slide
gate at no-load. See “Calibrating the Spin Controller”
on this page.
2. Review spreader rate tables on pages 11 through 14.
Make initial setting at the controller (positions 1
through 6) and install or remove the restrictor plate as
needed.
3. Install the spin deflector if a narrow pattern is desired
or remove the spin deflector if a full width pattern is
preferred.
4. Press the OFF button to make sure the Spin
Spreader gate is closed and then fill the bin with
product.
5. Make a run with the Spin Spreader turned on to
check product dispersion rate.
IMPORTANT: Always make sure you are traveling
before turning the Spin Spreader on. Always turn the
Spin Spreader off before end of travel. Running the
spreader while not traveling will discharge too much
material in one spot.
NOTE: A good method for checking product
dispersion is to fill the bin with the required pounds
of material to cover 1,000 sq. ft. in a straight run. A
4 ft. wide pattern would require 250 ft. of straight run.
You should run out of product at the end of the 250
ft. If not, make the following adjustments:
1. Increase travel speed to disperse less product
per sq. ft. or decrease speed to disperse more.
2. If the speed you are traveling is preferred,
change position number on the controller to
disperse more or less product.
3. You may also want to adjust the spin deflector at
the wing nuts to control placement of product.
4. Make a new run to recheck dispersion rate.

Daily Operational Checks
1. Clean the unit of dirt and trash to minimize rusting
and wear.
2. Visually inspect all nuts for tightness.
3. Replace any decals that are worn or damaged.
4. Prior to operation, thoroughly lubricate the Spin
Spreader.
5. Check for proper operation of the mechanisms by
running the machine at no-load for a few minutes.
6. Calibrate spin controller and spin deflector for
spreading the quantity desired and recheck
adjustments for accuracy.
7. All spreader parts must be cleaned properly after
every use to extend its life and efficiency.
Cleaning And Storing
!
CAUTION
Wear eye protection to prevent getting chemicals and/or dirt
in the eyes while cleaning the Spin Spreader.
!
CAUTION
Be sure to wear proper protective clothing when servicing or
lubricating your Fertilizer Spreader. Refer to chemical
manufacturers’ labels for specific clothing requirements.
Fertilizer is extremely corrosive and all remaining
particles including dust particles should be removed from
the spreader soon after application.
1. Remove all product left in the holding tank.
2. Disconnect and store spin controller in a dry location.
3. DO NOT wash the feedgate with water. Remove the
two screws from the bottom of the gate and slide the
gate forward until it drops off the unit. Be careful not
to loose the screws.
4. Use a soft bristle brush to clean the felt and remove
any dust from around the gear or on the felt.
5. Completely wash the rest of the Spin Spreader with
water and dry thoroughly.
6. Add a light coat of oil on all metal parts and motor to
help prevent rusting and corrosion.
7. Reinstall the feedgate.
8. Store the Electric Spin Spreader and electrical
controls in a location that is sheltered from moisture.
Spin Spreader Discharge Rates
DISCLAIMER: The Discharge Rate Tables are intended
as guidelines only. Land Pride accepts no responsibility
for actual site application rates or germination rates.
IMPORTANT: Remove spin controller and
discharge gate before washing the Spin Spreader.
These rates can vary dramatically due to varying
conditions and operator skill level.
Narrow Pattern Calculations
Calculations in the Discharge Rate Tables on page 11 for
narrow patterns (4’, 5’ & 6’ widths) are based on:
With and without a restrictor plate installed.
With the spin deflector attached.
Dispersal pattern at 48" width.
Traveling at 1 MPH (mile per hour)
EXAMPLE:
If you are traveling 1 MPH and dispersing a 4’ wide
pattern of alfalfa using flow position 2, your discharge
rate is 515.63 lbs/acre or 11.84 lbs/1000 sq. ft. at 1 MPH
(See Discharge Rate Table on page 11). If you are
driving at 4 MPH, calculate the discharge rate as follows:
Divide 515.63 by 4 = 128.91 lbs/acre.
Divide 11.84 by 4 = 2.96 lbs/1000 sq. ft.
REMEMBER: Increasing travel speed decreases the
amount of material being applied.
Wide Pattern Calculations
Calculations in the Discharge Rate Tables on page 14 for
the wide pattern spreader rates are based on:
With the spin deflector removed.
With and without a restrictor plate installed.
Dispersal pattern at widths indicated in the table.
Traveling at 1 MPH (mile per hour)
EXAMPLE:
If you are traveling 1 MPH and dispersing a 4’ wide
pattern of alfalfa using flow position 2, your discharge
rate is 103.13 lbs/acre or 2.37 lbs/1000 sq. ft. at 1 MPH
(See Spreader Rate table on page 14). If you are driving
at 5 MPH, calculate the discharge rate as follows:
Divide 103.13 by 5 = 20.63 lbs/acre.
Divide 2.37 by 5 = 0.47 lbs/1000 sq. ft.
REMEMBER: Increasing travel speed decreases the
amount of material being applied.
NOTE: If vehicle does not have a speed meter or no
way to calculate speed, a hand held Global
Positioning System (GPS) that indicates speed is
available at most sporting goods stores.
NOTE: Data in the Discharge Rate Tables is based
on traveling at 1 MPH. To calculate discharge rate
when traveling at a different speed, divide the data
in the table by the MPH you are traveling.
NOTE: Data in the Discharge Rate Tables is based
on traveling at 1 MPH. To calculate discharge rate
when traveling at a different speed, divide the data
in the table by the MPH you are traveling.

Seed Bed Roller
Refer to Figure 3-3:
The Land Pride SBR72 Three-point hitch or pull type
Seed Bed Roller has uses and applications in
landscaping, sports field maintenance, pasture
maintenance, professional turf care, general seeding
and overseeding applications around home sites,
construction sites, horse paddocks, nurseries, sod
farms, and small farm or ranch operations. The SBR72
will break up smaller clumps and dirt clods, while
pressing applied seed into firm contact with the soil
profile for greatly improved germination rates. The
notched profile of the roller also develops a pattern of
uniformly spaced mini-furrows that tend to hold seed and
fertilizer in place. These small furrows also retain
essential moisture, and resist erosion from the wind and
runoff from applied irrigation or rain. It can be pulled
behind the Electric Spin Spreader or behind any machine
equipped with a drawbar or receiver hitch. The hitch on
the tongue can be set-up as a clevis hitch or turned
around for a ball hitch.
