Thank you for posting the video. I just got off the phone with Scott’s Customer service, and they are sending me a free gearbox assembly and the rotor plate (impeller). I really appreciate it!!

My Scott's Edgeguard rotary spreader's right wheel didn't stop turning completely but it was hard to turn. In my case all I did was spray some silicone lubricant on all of the moving parts and this fixed it perfectly. Just consider this solution first unless you know there is a broken moving part.

Thanks for this video. I was so frustrated, I was going to break the whole damned thing and dump it in the garbage, but then I found your video. :-)

That's what you get when a company only hires people named Scott and Karen.

I called them yesterday for the same issue. They wanted me to find a number code under the hopper. I explained to the nice receptionist that it might be a good idea to place the number where it could be located quick and easy. I couldn’t find it 🤷🏾♂️ . The part will be here in 7-10 business days. Only used it twice so far

You mentioned they are going to send you a new one? This is happening because of the two parts that you showed us that are broken? It this a lifelong guarantee? My drop shoot won't close no matter what setting I put it on. Thanks for your help!!

My issue was the edge guard cable popping out of the bracket in the back. Looking like how to remove the back plate to allow the cable to get reseated correctly

I wonder if Scott has improved on the design(s)???
@scottreeve57164 жыл бұрын
Wonder how I cam remove the edgeguard altogether? I never use it and even when it's off, it still seems to skew the pellets towards one side.

I'm assuming the edge guard did not need replacement, just working it back into position?

My feed door is stuck open. What can be done about it?
@nelsong47193 жыл бұрын
My door for feed amount only opens up about 1/4 inch even though the selector dial seems to work well. Is there any solution for this? Would be appreciated because it seems Scott just puts me on hold.

I had a chat with customer service and I'll get the rotor in 7-14 days. I'll epoxy the rotor I have and it'll be a spare part for the next faillure...

Any tips on how to stop the fertilizer granules from sticking to the wheels when applying it to wet grass as instructed? It gets caked on the wheels.
@teammadcow Жыл бұрын
Unfortunately only trick is to not spread when it's wet out.

Was the part free or did they charge you

Notonebuttwo They did not charge me. It was free for me. I’ll be receiving the new rotor and gearbox in 7-14 days

Is there a manual for the Edgeguard Pro, and where can I get one? For every tool and piece of equipment I own, I keep a folder in my shop with manual, original receipt, and other paperwork - except this! Can't locate my hardcopy (I assume I got one) and can't locate one online. And Scotts' website is worthless. Thanks to anyone who can help. The gears and edgeguard shroud are shot on mine.

I know this is a really old post but did you ever find the manual for this spreader? I can’t find it anywhere
@rla10002 ай бұрын
@@ES-iz4wf No. I contacted Scotts about obtaining a manual and they claimed the information was "proprietary" if you can believe that nonsense. lmao. You would think I asked them for the nuclear codes. I asked them to send me replacement parts and they refused as there are no part numbers. So I sent pictures and never heard back.

Just a follow up to my previous post, I called the number and spoke to customer service, they are sending me a new set of upgraded tires since mine won’t hold air. Awesome customer service.
