4. Operate the implement up and down steep slopes, not across slopes, to prevent the
tractor from tipping. Avoid sudden stops and starts, slow down before changing
directions on a slope.
5. Pass diagonally through sharp dips and avoid sharp drops to prevent hanging up the
tractor and implement.
6. Slow down on sharp turns and slopes to prevent tipping or loss of control.
7. Watch for holes, roots or other hidden objects. Do not use near the edge of a gully,
ditch or stream bank.
3.08 - Optional Filter Grate
The filter grate
(see fig. 12)
is a simple bolt-on accessory, ideal for filtering clots and
foreign objects from the material being spread.
3.09 - Optional Agitator Extension
The agitator extension
(see fig. 13)
is an accessory useful when powdered or high
humidity fertilizer is being spread. This type of material has a tendency to bridge in the
hopper. The agitator extension is assembled on the existing agitator using the supplied
spring. Important: Heavy clods such as compacted salt must be broken up before being
used in the spreader.
