This Standard pertains to centrifugal, pendulum, and other types of broadcast spreaders designed for dry granular application while operating on the soil surface. Portions of the test procedures outlined herein are suitable for determining the delivery rate of gravity or drop spreaders; however, additional tests not covered in this Standard are needed to completely evaluate the performance of gravity spreaders. This Standard does not cover dry pneumatic granular applicators or large broadcast spreaders that are used to surface apply granular materials for 18.3 m (60’) spread width or more.
