Edgeguard mechanism failure x 2
on July 28, 2024
Posted by: ARKRZRBAK
This is my 2nd Edgeguard DLX in 3 years and both have had the same issue with the edge guard mechanism failing after 7-8 uses. Very very disappointed in the quality of the edge guard mechanism.

First Time Fail

Does not spread. Since when did Scott's become a product to avoid?
Response from ScottsBy Customer Care, August 19, 2024
We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder DLX Broadcast Spreader and appreciate your feedback.
The spreader has one drive wheel, the other wheel free turns and does not engage the gearbox therefore does not turn the rotary plate or agitator. Is the agitator turning when the spreader is pushed forward, if not, the gearbox is broken. Does the shut-off plate open and close when the control lever is squeezed? If not the shut-off plate is broken. Is the rotor plate under the opening turning? Product should drop down and be flung out onto the lawn. If the rotor plate is not turning it will not toss out the product. This could be either the rotor plate roll pin or the gearbox. Try holding the drive wheel or the axle while you spin the rotor plate. If the rotor plate spins freely it is broken. If it will not spin then the gearbox is broken.
We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

Spreader worked well for my 7,000 SF lawn and liked that it’s easy to use.
