For Scotts® Turf Builder® Lawn Fertilizers:

Click on the category (Feed & Control Weeds, Feed Any Season, Feed & Control Bugs, etc.). Click on the Specs & Details section, and download the label. You`ll find your spreader settings there.

Answer: You would need a pretty high spreader setting since Scotts EZ Seed Patch and Repair Sun and Shade is use at 20 lbs to treat just 445 square feet. Be sure that you measure the area you are treating to be sure you are using the correct amount of this product.
The spreader covers a width of 3m. The recommended walking speed is approximately 8.3m in 10 seconds.
Our best overall pick, the Scotts Elite Spreader, allows users to apply products quickly and evenly in yards up to 20,000 square feet. For smaller yards, the Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader is a budget-friendly option that comes fully assembled and delivers precise application.
A: The spreader is made in California.
Answer: Per the manufacturer, Scotts EZ Seed Patch and Repair Sun and Shade should be applied with a spreader.
For overseeding an existing lawn, we recommend a sowing rate of 35g per m2, and for sowing a new lawn from scratch we recommend a sowing rate of 50g per m2.
The first number is the amount of nitrogen (N), the second number is the amount of phosphate (P2O5) and the third number is the amount of potash (K2O). These three numbers represent the primary nutrients (nitrogen(N) – phosphorus(P) – potassium(K)). This label, known as the fertilizer grade, is a national standard.
The numbers stand for an application rate. A bag of commercial fertilizer will usually have numbers for where to set either broadcast or drop spreaders to get the recommended amount of fertilizer laid down.
If you are using a drop spreader, such as Scott`s Classic Drop Spreader, and using a Yard Mastery granular fertilizer, you will want to set your spreader at a 7.
Spreaders are used to evenly distribute fertilizer and grass seed across your lawn. There are two types: drop and broadcast, also known as a rotary spreader.

I have an older scotts drop spreader, called a precision flow control model and do not know what settings to use with the Scotts turf builder I have purchased.
ANSWER : Hi,
The best way is to just place a small amount… like 5 lb in the hopper…start with it barely open and see how far you get,,, then compute from there what you need…
The settings they give you are guesamates at best and are often set to place too much… why not??? they are selling you a product!!
