Expert Reply:
Rick, after emptying leftover salt or fertilizer that was in the # ME43FR , rinse the hopper and spinner plate with clean water and let it drain. Wipe the control cable with a little silicone spray and roll it into dry storage. Meyer recommends lubricating the axle bearings every few uses to keep them smooth.
Do you clean after each storm or wait until the season’s end?
