When using a push spreader, where the spinning distributer plate is operated by the wheels, it is usually efficient to keep up a brisk pace, around 3 miles per hour, to ensure a good even spread of material.
Whatever model you decide to purchase, keep it clean and maintained between working periods to prevent any chance of corrosion or blockage from old material and to keep all moving parts running smoothly.
Make sure your salt spreader is totally dry when you load it as damp material will not spread properly.
