OPERATION

Depending on the specific weight of the fertilizer 
being spread, to ensure uniform spreading, 
both to the right and the left, the blades can be 
adjusted on the spreader disc. A blade position 
corresponding to a higher value on the scale 
increases the spread width.

The shorter blade delivers fertilizer mainly in the 
centre of the spreading area, while the longer 
blade tends to deliver product to the outer area.
