L5034G4 CONVEYOR SELECTION CHART
This chart is to help determine which conveyor is best for specific applications. Find the closest description of the
type of material to be spread.*
•
X indicates the preferred conveyor.
•
O indicates a suitable alternative conveyor.
•
NR indicates the conveyor and/or spreader is not recommended for the specified application.
The density provided was used to make the conveyor recommendation. If the density of the
material to be spread is outside of those in the table, contact your New Leader dealer for the best
conveyor for your application.

* - A #3 conveyor is not recommended for use with material that is greater than 25% moisture content. Wet material
can slip on a #3 conveyor and may not flow to the feed gate.
** - Trial and error is necessary to determine the spreader’s maximum capacity for each material so as not to exceed
the system pressures of the hydraulic system and stall the conveyor.
NOTE: Field experience has shown that payload capacity can be increased with the use of chain shields in some
applications.
