Theory of Operation
The Sand Spreader hydraulic hoses are connected to the loader front
auxiliary hydraulic couplers. Hydraulic fluid flows through the hoses and
through the flow control valve to the motor which drives the spreader
plate to throw material outward. Material flows out of the hopper through
adjustable doors on the bottom. The distance material is thrown and the
spread area or arc is adjustable.
Operation
1. Follow the instructions in the Installing and Removing section to
install the attachment.
2. Park the loader. (See Parking Safely in this manual.)
3. Perform the pre-operation inspection.
Loading the Hopper
1. Close the adjustable doors at the bottom of the hopper before pouring
material through the hopper grate.
2. Raise and tilt the attachment to scoop piled material into the hopper.
3. Drive the loader to the work area.
Adjusting the Hopper Doors
The attachment ships from the factory so the spreader plate rotates in a
clockwise direction. You can reverse direction (See Reversing Spreader
Plate Rotation).
