MAIN APRON ADJUSTMENT
Tighten the two adjusting bolts on both
sides (1 on each front corner of the
spreader - see circled area in the pictures
below) equally so that when properly
tensioned, the apron chain on each side
should sit 1/16” above the center driveshaft
support cross member.
The apron will be damaged if the machine
is operated with one end of the apron slats
running ahead of the opposite end.

TIMING OF BEATERS
The vertical beaters on the manure spreader are preset
from the factory. If it becomes necessary to service
the beater assembly, the beaters must be timed so
the flighting of the opposite beater is about halfway
between the beater being timed.
To time the beaters;
1. Remove the top shield and bearing support from
both beaters.
2. Lift/raise the beater up off of the gearbox splined
shaft.
3. Rotate the beater so the flighting of the opposite
beater is about halfway between the beater being
timed.
4. Lower the beater on the splined shaft
5. Replace the bearing support and top shield.
