FAQ
Are soil fumigants acceptable?
Yes. Products similar to Basamid may be used.
Can fungicides be applied?
Yes. Products similar to 3336 GC Clearly Chemical may be used.
Can I apply topdressings?

Can I use granular ice melt in my spreader?
Certainly. Most any granular commercial ice melt product will work. Be sure to always thoroughly clean your spreader after each use.
Can I use my spreader to apply powdered ag lime?
No. Due to the powdery consistency of ag lime and the design of the openings on the bottom of the spreader, powdered ag lime will not work in these models. Gandy does have a specially designed 4- and 6-ft. spreaders to apply powdered ag lime and crumb rubber. See heavy-duty 65 series spreaders for more information.
Can I use rock salt in my spreader?
Due to the various sizes of rock salt granules you may, or may not be able to use your spreader with rock salt. Be sure to visually check the diameter of the granule to be sure it will fit through the openings. As always, be sure to clean your spreader after each use.

There are no tires on the spreader. In order to turn the rotor bar in the hopper, you need to select a hydraulic or a 12V electric drive to provide rotation.

What if the seed or chemical isn’t in the rate chart?
Gandy provides step-by-step instructions in the rate chart allowing you to quickly and accurately determine the precise rate.
When using fertilizer, what do I set my cam gauge to?
Because of the many brands of fertilizer, Gandy provides calibration instructions based on the fertilizer’s density in pounds per cubic foot. Step-by-step instructions allow you to accurately set your rate.
Will the spreader handle native grasses?
No. Native grasses have long awns and hairy appendages that make the seed extremely light and fluffy. These non-debearded seeds have a tendency to clog openings and require constant monitoring.
