Video
Some videos show a red shoulder spreader. This has been replaced by the improved green spreader. The principals of operation are the same and they do the same job but this latest model has an improved warranty to 3 years and sturdier construction.
Maintenance
Fertiliser, being a salt, is highly corrosive so all spreaders should be thoroughly hosed out after use, air dried completely and all exposedmeal parts sprayed and/or wiped with a light oil such as WD40 or a silicone spray. Corrosion is not covered by the warranty. Cleaning and maintenance videos here

Rookie error made during first use and application. I set the correct aperture opening as per the recommended number but I did not realise that the hand trigger had two settings - the pre-set one and fully open. I wrongly assumed the trigger was set but when I applied full pressure, the aperture fully opened. Best look at the handle mechanism and practice to get to the pre-set aperture opening.
