6.5 TRACTOR DRAWBAR SETUP
This spreader is to be operated with 1000 RPM PTO
ONLY. No PTO adapter may be used to alter speed or
geometry.
Set your tractor drawbar to conform to the standard
dimensions as shown, Figure 1. This will ensure that the
PTO drive shaft will not be over extended.
An improperly located hitch point may cause damage to
the universal joints of the PTO drive shaft. Conforming to
the standard 16" or 20” drawbar & PTO relationship will
ensure that the PTO drive shaft will not become over-
extended.
