QUICK LINK
Assembling the Safety Tow Chain
NOTE:
The safety tow chain may be ordered as an optional component for the TURF TIGER
spreader and must be used if the spreader is to be moved any time on a public roadway.
Be sure to
adhere to all local/state transportation codes for travel on public roadways with this type of equipment.
WARNING:
DO NOT tow the TURF TIGER spreader (loaded for operation) at highway speeds;
doing so may cause the tires to overheat and/or loss of control.
1.
Refer to Figure 2B for an illustration of the hook-up of the safety chains (one on each side).
Attaching the Spreader to the Tractor PTO
(For Optional PTO Hydraulic Models ONLY)
1.
Pull back the slide collar on the PTO yoke, and slide the spreader PTO assembly onto the
tractor PTO shaft. Be sure the slide collar snaps forward to indicate that the PTO shaft is
properly secured.
ATTENTION:
DO NOT transport the PTO hydraulic TURF TIGER spreader without having the
PTO shaft secured.
2.
Fasten the PTO safety chain to the link on the spreader pump mount to prevent rotation of the safety
shield during operation.
WARNING:
Failure to secure the PTO safety chain will allow the safety shield to rotate.
Operating the spreader without the safety shield in proper position may result in serious personal
injury or death.
Figure 2B - Attaching the Safety Chains
2.
Unscrew the quick link nuts (one on
each side).
3.
Insert the chain link into the quick
link as shown (one on each side) and
retighten the quick link nuts to keep
the chains from slipping out.
4.
Hook the other ends of the chains to
the appropriate anchor holes on the
vehicle hitch.
WARNING:
For the safety chains
to be effective, the installation of the
chains should not allow more slack than is
necessary for movement during spreader
operation. Inspect the safety chains regularly
to check the condition of the links and
locking/hooking mechanisms; replace the
chains as soon as weakness/breakage is noted.
