In order to assure equal distribution on both sides of the spreader, depending on the different 
material specifications, the distributor vanes can be adjusted into varying positions by simply 
removing the front screw and turning vane, reinstall screw.

When  all  the  vanes  are  in  the  1st  position,  the  distribution  is  increased  towards  the  left, 
compared  to  the  way  the  vehicle  is  moving.  If  the  vanes  are  put  in  the  last  position  the 
distribution is increased to the right.

Note: moving the vanes from 1st to last position, moving at the same speed, will affect 
the distributing width of the spread material.

The spreading is regulated through the use of the levers that move the adjustable tray open or 
closed at the bottom of the hopper, depending on the amount of material required for operation.

In  order  to  set  the  regulation,  after  consulting  the  spread  chart  and  all  the  manufactures 
recommendation  from  the  spread  material,  it  is  necessary  to  move  the  lever  along  the 
graduated scale.

It  is  important  that  an  experienced  and  competent  operator  verifies  the  correct  amount  of 
spread, over use of some fertilizers may damage fields.

In order to spread from both sides lever (2) needs to be 
positioned so both openings through hopper are open. To 
spread  to  the  left  or  right  only,  lever  2  needs  to  be 
positioned to allow material to flow through corresponding 
opening in hopper.

It is advised to use help when loading hopper as bags are heavy. 
Do not set bags on top of hopper while transporting spreader to field as they may fall from 
spreader or compress material making it difficult to spread.
