Wizz Spreader

A:  IF your Scotts Wizz Spreader is not working correctly this may be due to the edgeguard not being in the OFF position. It must be completely turned to one or the other. If it is set in between, there will be some binding. Please contact us at 877-220-3089 if further assistance is needed.

A:  Scotts Wizz Spreader can be used to spread granular products. To determine a setting for a non-Scotts product follow these steps: Place enough material in the hopper to cover 1,000 sq. ft. (Usually indicated on the bag of product, if not indicated, take pounds in bag and divide by the number of thousand square feet bag covers. Example: 23lb bag covers 5,000 sq ft, divide 23 by 5 to get 4.6lbs per 1,000 sq ft). Place the spreader setting on a low setting (Usually one-fourth of the spreader setting range or less). Spread the material over a 50 x 20 ft. area (This is 1,000 sq. ft.). If material is left over, you need to increase the setting. If you come up short, you need to decrease the setting. While this is not a scientific method for getting the spreader setting, it will get you in the ballpark for their product or spreader.

A:  I have no idea! If the repellent is granular (like fertilizer) it should work. I do not know if it will work with pellets. You need to compare the openings in the spreader with the size of the repellent.

A:  Yes, you should be able use the Wizz Spreader depending on the size of the gradules. I found it very useful in spreading ice melt in the wintertime.

A:  Not sure but it seems to handle any type of granular product that you need to spread

A:  If it got damp or wet, let it dry out. Ensure that it isn’t jammed up with product that may have become dampened. This occurred with mine. I cleared it out, let it dry out, and it worked fine.
