The flow regulator of the moving floor should be connected to the tractor’s DUAL-
ACTING distributor. Make sure that on the end of one of the 2 hydraulic hoses there
is no check valve.
8.
Avoid connecting to a dual-acting tractor distributor (pressure loss, except for point 4).
9.
The hydraulic pressure hose is always located close to the pressure limiter on the
spreader’s distributor; it has a
red
collar. The return hose has a
blue
collar
10.
The distributor is set at
180 bars
(main valve).
11.
The hydraulic braking hose, ended by a PUSH-PULL half-valve should always be
connected to the pressure outlet – tractor’s braking.
12.
Tractor with flow which exceeds 45 l/min
:
Provide a flow divider to be installed on the spreader, before the “PRESSURE”
orifice on the distributor unit, or contact your dealer to check whether it is possible to
adjust the tractor’s flow rate.

Closed circuit tractor
: (Example: John DEERE)
a
- To operate the equipment without the tractor having problems, activate the tractor
distributor and immediately use the equipment’s hydraulic functions.
b
- As soon as the equipment’s hydraulic functions have been used, return the tractor’s
distributor to NEUTRAL.
c
- For earlier models of John Deere tractors (prior to the 6000 series), check that the
tractor’s hydraulic system is not vibrating and that the equipment’s return hose is
connected to the tractor’s filter bowl; this is to avoid CAVITATION and pump
unpriming (if you experience problems, contact your John Deere dealer).
