Lubrication & Maintenance
Proper chain tension is a factor in
chain and sprocket life� Measuring
from rear of unit, top of chain
should appear between MIN and
MAX lines in sight window (Figure
2A), and conveyor should touch
bottom sill flange at 36” - 40” (91 -
102cm) mark as shown in Figure 3�
If manual adjustments need to be
made: With spreader unloaded,
run conveyor at 15 - 20 RPM� On
valve block, loosen conveyor
tension valve jam nut� Turn
counterclockwise to lower tension,
or turn clockwise to increase
tension (Figure 2B)�

Insert Bin
Using a 3/4” wrench, turn idler extenders at rear of unit to adjust tension. Turn clockwise to increase
tension, and turn counterclockwise to decrease tension� Measuring from rear of insert bin’s sill, conveyor
chain should touch bottom sill flange at 30” - 34” (76 - 86cm) mark as shown in Figure 3. Measurements
must be equal between each side�
Over-tensioning of conveyor chain will lead to excessive load on the system, causing
excessive chain and sprocket wear and can cause extremely high starting pressures. Under-
tensioning allows conveyor chain to “wrap” around drive sprockets and not exit sprocket
freely, causing excessive excessive chain stretch and surging of the conveyor which will result
in interrupted flow of material to the spinners.
Lubrication
Make sure unit is clean and completely dry� With spreader empty,
shut down spinners and run conveyor at 20 RPM� Lubricate conveyor
chain via display through two full revolutions of conveyor� Lubricate
every 10 hours of spreading, or at the end of each day’s use�
Only lubricate insert bin conveyor chain strands annually with Fluid
Film™ or equivalent�
Do not allow lubricants to contact belting as they will
cause the belt to deteriorate and fail prematurely�

Keep hands, feet, hair and clothing away from moving parts while system is operating as there
may be danger of entanglement!
