Mounting Instructions
Model # SP-3000/ SP-6000
step 1: remove tailgate from pickup bed.
step 2: load spreader onto truck bed and mount spinner assembly.
step 3: slide spreader forward until deector/chute assembly makes contact with vehicle. then, slide spreader back approx. 1” to allow
proper clearance.
step 4: install stop bars using supplied hole patterns (see fig.2). to achieve the best position, you may need to drill additional holes in
bracket in order to properly position spreader.
step 5: now that the spreader is positioned front to back, you will now center it left to right. looking at the inside front and rear corner of
the lower frame area, you will notice (4) holes in the bottom of the frame. using a paint pen or similar marking device, mark hole
locations.
step 6: before drilling holes, look beneath the approximate area where each hole will be located. make sure there are no vehicle
components that will be in the path of the drill before doing this step. if there are interferences, you can relocate holes, making sure
there are at least two forward and two rearward of the front to back centerline.
step 7: install and tighten all (4) bolts.
step 8: install ratchet straps (see Vee pro 3000/6000 mounting system: strapping techniques). it is very important for everyone’s safety
this strapping method be used as the standard mounting procedure. (do not use ratchet straps exclusively.)
step 9: Connect the spreader power cord to vehicle main power plug mounted at rear of vehicle (see electrical installation).
step 10: Connect Center high mount stop lamp (Chmsl) cord from the spreader to mating half attached to vehicle (see electrical
installation).
