Frequently Asked Questions What kind of materials can the Cobra HS23 spread? The Cobra HS23 is designed for granular materials like lawn fertiliser, grass seed, and ice melt products or rock salt. It is not suitable for spreading fine powders, compost, or topsoil, which can clog the mechanism. Is the Cobra HS23 suitable for uneven ground? Yes, its 12-inch pneumatic tyres are a key feature, specifically designed to provide stability and smooth operation on rugged or uneven terrain. This makes it a significant improvement over models that use solid plastic wheels. How do I control the amount of material being spread? The spreader features an easy-to-use rate setting adjustment lever, conveniently located on the handle. This allows you to precisely control the flow rate to match the requirements of different materials and application needs, ensuring even coverage. How is this spreader delivered? For UK-wide delivery, the Cobra HS23 is delivered boxed and will require some minor assembly. By purchasing from an authorised dealer like Sims Garden Machinery, you have access to our trained sales staff who can provide guidance if needed. For local customers, we offer assembly services and even a personal handover demonstration. User Manuals / Downloads View Cobra Brochure
