How to assemble an Earthway 2600aplus spreader
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 вер 2024
- Here we assemble a new spreader - an Earthway model 2600aPlus. This spreader assembly video will show you how to put this amazing spreader together from start to finish.
The 2600aPlus has 9 inch pneumatic wheels, 3 drop holes, the ability to shut off drop holes to act like an edgeguard, and a 40lb capacity hopper.
This spreader is by far the best spreader that I have ever used. I wish that I had made the switch from Scott's a long time ago. There will be some videos in the near future about how to correctly calculate the amount of product that it throws, that way we know exactly how many pounds of product that we're putting on the ground no matter what the product is.

You, sir, are a treasure to humankind. Thank you for making this video. Btw, if anyone is having trouble bending the cotter pins, you are not alone.
This was amazing!! Without your video, I would not been able to complete the assembly. Thank you!!
This video saved me so much time! Just got this spreader and got a headache trying to decipher the provided manual. Luckily your video was easy to find and follow! Thank you so much for making it :) also for anybody reading that might get stuck on the one part that I had to spend some time on: the hopper has TWO setting (1) full spread and (2) side spread. Mine came with lever turned to the side spread setting by default. So when i got to the calibration part and pulled the control lever all the way back, only 1 spreader would open (as opposed to all)! I was scratching my head for a bit thinking I did something wrong. But then figured out that i needed to change the spreader setting control to "full". And that fixed it. Anyway, great video, thank you much.
Thank you! I was wondering why only one of my tear-drop holes opened up! I have product to drop and I wanted to figure this out quickly. You rock!
Man there’s no way I’d have gotten the lever part right with the instructions that it came with. Thank you so much for this!! 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾
You made my day! I’m a visual guy, show me once and I usually get it. Great instructional video, easy to follow step by step for guys like me. Thanks for taking the time, you are appreciated!
Absolutely, thanks for watching!
Just picked mine a few days ago and im glad i found your guide! Thank you! Those cotter pins are a PITA! Lol 😂
Thanks for the video but you make it look easier than what it really is.
I received this model with the wrong directions. Took me an hour to figure out. Your video saved the day! Thank you much
Hey pal, I see this video is 4 years old, but, I just picked myself up an Earthway 2600 spreader. This video was extremely helpful, I appreciate you taking time to help me out. Thanks so much, take care!
Thank you for taking the time to do this 👍🏻
Thank you! This is better than the company video.... No close ups there!
Thanks for the video! I was banging my head against the wall on this one, then found your video. You’re a lifesaver - or at least a sanity-saver.
Honestly, who writes these instruction manuals? I could not get past step 4. As everyone on this thread has stated you saved us a lot of time and headache. Earthway should pay you a commission! I look forward to seeing what else you have on your subscription.
I can't believe how bad the instructions were in the manual. Seriously thank you!
Thank goodness I found this video because someone needs to learn how to write directions for earthway!!
Thank you for the video, this is super helpful as the original manual is not very detailed. Awesome content!
Very helpful. Just assembled my Earthway while watching your video. Thank you!
Great video dude. As others have said, the instructions were poor. Appreciate ya making this. Liked and subbed!
Thanks for making this video! I probably couldn’t have finished the assembly on my own without it, well at least not without a huge headache and a lot of cursing. Appreciate the help.
Excellent video Grassmaster Flex.
Thank you so much! This video relieved my headache dealing with the provided instructions.
Thank you for the detailed instruction video. Made my life a lot easier.
Used this video today to assemble my new spreader. Very helpful. Thanks!
The West Coast Crips and Bloods will love this music when they’re assembling their lawn spreaders.
Great video! Simple and well done!
Good job! Thanks for taking time and producing a quality product assembly video.
Nice video, but the part I am having problems with you didn't' show. On mine appears that the opening on the black plastic piece that attaches to the bottom of the seed holder where you are supposed to connect the open/close arm is oriented horizontally instead of vertically so the arm won't fit in the whole. I tell if mine is defective or if I am doing something wrong, but right now it appears I will have to open and close this thing manually. I want to send it back.
Did you ever solve this? I’m having the same issue
you saved me quite a bit of headache/frustration after I perused the directions and said "I hope someone's made a video that's more clear than this" -- thank you!!! Earthway should be ashamed for those instructions... and the 4 missing #10 screws in my box (that connect the frame to the hopper) I had to replace at home depot.
Thank you for the video!! Much better than the instructions included 🙄
Anytime!
Great video!! Thanks for all the work and effort you put in to making it.
Awesome video. The best of any of the assembly videos. Great job!
Thanks mate, great explanation!
Thank you for taking the time to shot, edit and post this video. Very helpful. Earthway claims they plan to post an assembly video but they still have not done so (as of April 2020). The information section needs a description of the tool you used to tighten the screws. Much more so than music information. A link to Amazon would also be helpful. I put this thing together with two wrenches as I don't own a socket wrench. One wrench to tighten, the other to hold the bolt in place. Not fun. The included instructions are terrible. They make no mention of ANY tools!
Thanks again.
Thanks for this assembly video! It helped tremendously!!
It took me 3 hours to assemble mine. I wish I watched this video first! I'm sure it would have taken less than an hour if I had.
Great video!! I understood everything. The directions were somewhat difficult to follow. Thank god for youtube. This could have been a real pain to put together.
Thanks for this dude!
Thank you a million times over!
Thanks for saving my life!
Great job just gotta work on the lighting a bit in the video Just got one helped a lot Thanks
Hey will do, thanks for the comment.
I noticed on phones my videos are appearing a lot darker than they should be, trying to figure out the fix! Glad it helped
Dude!! Thank you very, very, very much for making this video!! The instructions that came with this Earthway spreader SUCKED!!! If you hadn't made this video, I would have been freaking lost, man!! I hope this company is pays you for illustrating how to put this damn thing together!!😄 You definitely need to get paid well and paid residuals everything someone looks at your videos!! I will definitely subscribe to your channel !!!👍 Thanks again, dude!!!!
Thank you
I’ve had this thing for two years now and it’s not operational at all. Every time I try and close the hopper the push rod falls out. The push rod is scraping against the black metal piece below the pushrod.
much appreciated
Nice work! Thanks!
Thanks for the video! I recently bought a new one...but unfortunately my gear assembly snaps crackles and pops... and locks up the wheel intermittently. Hope to get a replacement gear assembly soon. Ugh, last time I order from Target Online - VM Express...
😯 oh man, that's such a bummer. Don't let it deter you, the spreader is the best one that I've ever used!
Thanks for watching the video!
Very helpful video. The supplied instructions were just horrible. With all the comments on Amazon and elsewhere commenting on how bad the instructions are, you'd think they would do something to remedy that.
Does anyone receive a spring or it came of from somewhere? I have a spring near the unit and really not sure if it was from my toolbox or it came with the spreader
Awesome video! The directions that came in the box are garbage. Very helpful tutorial
Great video, but the lighting made it hard to see at times.
Two questions. Do you find that this spreader empties close to 100 percent? As bad as the Scotts spreaders are designed, they do a decent job of getting all of the fert out of the hopper. And do you find the handle too low for comfort? I'm 6' tall and the Scotts mini broadcast spreader handle is barely tall enough to use for my whole yard. Thanks!
Thank you!
Thank you for the video! Picking it up Monday! Do you think this will be good for a person 6’5?
I would like to know the answer to this too.
Im 6’2 and have to push at my waist line to be level
Thank you! You saved me from these awful instructions
First, great video. I have a question though. At frame 10:20 the agitator on the pinion shaft is correctly installed. I applied Lesco dimension with a full BB sized particle and the spreader didn't work well. I saw a video with the agitator pushed on all the way. I know this is not the correct way but seems like you would get better action.
I'm at 1:40, arrow forward, the square is all wobley, should it be?
What's the first song playing can't find it on any searches
Thank you for this video. The instructions that came with this unit are not very helpful. I noticed that N-Ext box sitting under the Grub EX. Their products recently came to my attention. They seem top-shelf from what I can see. What is your opinion of them?
These are the worst instructions ever. Thank you for the video. My wife started to put it together then came to ask me, "whats a flat head phillips screw?", thats when I knew we were in for it.
LOL
I ended with an extra washer ... Uh oh
