Mabey I need to go through this again... in more detail. We had two of those bastards on this farm for over 20 years. One was a Eurospand; the other was a Cosmo. Both work on the same principle as the one you pictured. The pair we had would not flow consistently at rates less than 200-250 # per acre while driving at about 6 mph and their nominal spread width of 25-30 feet. With straight AN... probably 300 # plus is the lowest rate you're going to see. So... set it so it flows and drive as fast as you're comfortable with... and you'll get a rate that won't burn your grass off. When you're done you'll figure out what you used. Setting those things is nothing more than an excercise in wasting time. If you need to set an accurate rate get a Vicon pendulum spreader or a Lely that uses a similar metering mechanism.
