Revive your Scotts Elite Spreader with this comprehensive, heavy-duty rebuild kit. If your spreader has stopped spinning or the original plastic components have worn down, this kit provides everything you need to get back to maintaining your lawn without buying an entirely new unit. This kit will save you $$$$
What’s Included?
This kit is designed as a direct replacement for the internal drive and external protection systems:
- Complete Gearbox Assembly: Includes the 69T Bevel Gear, the 5.75 to 1 Reduction Gearbox, and both the Left and Right Gearbox Covers.
- Spreader Disc: The main centrifugal disc for consistent product distribution.
- Front Edge Guard: To prevent fertilizer or seed from hitting your driveway or flower beds.
- Hub Caps / Center Caps: Protective "Scotts" branded caps to keep debris out of the wheel assemblies.
Assembly Instructions
- Gearbox: Pack the printed gearbox with a generous amount of marine-grade or lithium grease before sealing the left and right covers. This reduces friction and extends the life of the 3D-printed teeth.
- Hardware: This kit is designed to utilize the original metal shafts from the Scotts Elite spreader.
- Fitment: Some light sanding may be required on the gear teeth depending on your printer's tolerances to ensure a smooth "break-in" period.
