Fertilizer spreader design flaw causes fertilizer to be thrown into the wheel, making application uneven and requiring multiple passes.
The spreader's broadcaster is too low, causing fertilizer to hit the wheel regardless of opening setting. It requires multiple passes at low setting to achieve even coverage.
