Example:
Operational speed F:
3 km/h
Working width A:
4m
Desired spread rate St:
50 g/m²
Necessary required spread rate So:? [g/min]
W
=
3000 [m/h]
= 50 m/min
60
F
= 50 m/min x 4m = 200 m²/min
So
= 50 g/m² x 200 m²/min
So = 10000 g/min
The necessary required spread rate is 10 kg/min.
3. Procedure of spread rate check
3.1 Place a plastic wrap underneath the spreader.
3.2 Lower the spreader to its lowest position.
3.3 Move the spread width reducer in its lowest position.
3.4 Start the towing vehicle's engine. With the manual gas lever
constantly set the engine's rev. speed considering the uni-
versal joint shaft rev. speed (e.g.
540 min
-1
).
3.5 Switch on the universal joint shaft or the hydraulic drive.
3.6 Open the shutter for precisely 1 minute in the desired shut-
ter slide position.
3.7 To determine the actually set spread rate [g/m²] weigh the
collected amount of spreading material and compare with
the determined required spread rate..
Danger!
During the spread rate check be aware of rotating implement
parts and spreading material particles being thrown around.
If the actual and the desired spread rate do not coincide, re-
adjust the shutter position accordingly. If necessary repeat the
spread rate check.
