Setting Material Divider
Material Divider settings are very important to the accuracy of the spread pattern.
Improper divider settings will cause light or heavy streaks in the field.
Material Divider should be set following these guidelines:
1) Material Divider has an adjustment rod at the rear of the divider. Moving the
divider “IN” or “OUT” will change the spread pattern.
2)
Moving the Material Divider “OUT” will cause the spread pattern to be heavy on
the outside of the spread swath.
3)
Moving the Material Divider “IN” will cause the spread pattern to be heavy in the
middle of the spread swath.
Material Divider Settings:
NOTE: These are recommended settings and will vary according to material weight.
NOTE: When spreading Lime, remove the rear section of the material divider.
NOTE:
Chandler Equipment Co. recommends each spreader to be tested, using a pan
test kit, every season to ensure proper spread pattern.
