Featuring an 80 lb hopper, durable stainless steel frame, and a smooth 5:1 enclosed gearbox, it ensures precise, even spreading of fertilizers, seeds, and ice melt.

## Description

A top choice for landscaping and lawn care experts, the LESCO High Wheel Fertilizer Spreader with Manual Deflector Kit (model 101186) has established itself as the industry standard spreader from its ability to adapt to user's needs all year round. Ideally, this LESCO spreader is used during the spring and summer months to spread granular fertilizers and grass seed on lawns and turf in order to promote healthy root growth. But it also finds great use in winter to spread salt and ice melt on sidewalks, driveways, or pathways to reduce slipping incidents from occurring. Its extra-large pneumatic tires provide a smooth ride and increased stability over most terrain, while reducing the chances of rutting considerably. An all stainless steel frame, axle, and impeller shaft are just some of the features that ensure this LESCO 101186 can withstand the harshness of outdoor conditions, thus providing you with long lasting service. Please note that this LESCO 101186 Spreader is a replacement for the now discontinued LESCO 091186 model. This model does not include a cover.

Review: Easy to push and spreads very evenly - I see a lot of comments on how bad the instructions were to assemble the high wheel Lesco spreader. Mine had the shield already installed and all I really had to do was put the handle on. It was easier for me to just go by the exploded picture view. Other than that the spreader works awesome. It is definitely high quality and after using other spreaders. This one feels like it will last for many seasons.
Review: Commercial Quality - Stainless Steel does not rust. Heavy duty and precise spread of granular products.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to push and spreads very evenly

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Commercial Quality

Stainless Steel does not rust. Heavy duty and precise spread of granular products.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Assembly and packaging
*by D***N on October 12, 2024*

Absolutely the worst set of assembly instructions I have ever come across. Among other things, no list of tools required, actual instructions very vague and lacking detail. Shipping box had numerous holes in it, parts were missing, one of the missing parts was a bolt with no length given or part number, box had been previously opened and packaging had just been thrown back in as though an afterthought. I was very disappointed to say the least. Once I have it fully assembled and “calibrated”, I will pass final judgement and decide whether or not to return it!! It has now been 3 days since I complained, yet to get a response!
