Scattergrain Grain Spreader
5. Instructions
Operating Instructions
The grain spreader blade assembly has four (4) features to adjust the grain flow pattern.
1. Tilt adjusts the entire spreader blade, which controls overall grain spread. To adjust tilt, loosen the
two (2) U-bolts that allow the blade to tip up and down. This may vary according to bin diameter and
fill rate.
(See Figure 5A.)
Figure 5A Adjustment of the Tilt
2. Spreader diverters (grain guide baffles) are used to increase or decrease grain flow resistance over
the spreader blade. With the diverters straight, the grain will travel farther. Angled grain diverters
shorten the throwing distance.
(See Figure 5B.)

3. Blade extension is used when extra throwing distance is required for larger bins.
4. Dampers are used to control center filling.
