The Scotts spreader has a dial on there they call a micrometer. The settings on the dial are tested specifically with their products and their spreader. I'm not sure how they compare as I've never seen the Sears spreader. The Scotts Company's consumer services division keeps a list of many spreader types and can often help with setting the spreader before applying their product. You may want to contact them. Look them up at www.scotts.com.
If you send an email to Scotts Consumer service they can actually send you the spreader settings you need. You can contact them through their website and they will email your spreader setting. https://www.scotts.com/smg/contactus/contactUs.jsp?navId=page900108&parentId=page900134
