Setting a symmetrical scatter pattern / adjustment of the vanes
Depending on the type (granular, coarse, fine) or state of the material (wet, dry), the spreading
range may not be even (left and right spreading quantity different). This can be compensated by
the standard adjustable discharge funnels on the spreader (adjustable segment).
1 = Adjustment segment
2 =
Unlocked
3 = Scale
Unlock the discharge funnel (adjustable segment) and rotate in the relevant direction.
For example:
Spreading quantity too high on the left side (viewed in the direction of travel):
Move discharge funnel to the left towards the higher numbers on the scale.
Or
:
Spreading
quantity too high on the left side (viewed in the direction of travel): Move discharge funnel
to the right towards the lower numbers on the scale.
If rotating the discharge funnel is not sufficient for setting a symmetrical scatter pattern,
the vanes on the broadcast disc can also be adjusted.
Set back:
(move against broadcast disc direction of rotation) means material is discharged
earlier. This increases the spreading density on the
right
side viewed in the
direction of travel. (With clockwise rotating broadcast disc).
Set forward:
(move with broadcast disc direction of rotation) means material is discharged
later. This increases the spreading density on the
left
side viewed in the
direction of travel. (With clockwise rotating broadcast disc).
Important
After adjusting the vane always:
•
Rotate broadcast disc manually. Check that is moves freely.
•
Check that all screws in the vane (including on the broadcast disc)
are tightly seated. Defective nuts and bolts must be replaced.
