OPERATING THE SPREADER – CAB CONTROL
CONTROLLING MATERIAL APPLICATION
The material application settings can be adjusted
while the spreader is ON or OFF. Settings are shown
by the indicator lights around the control knobs. When
the spreader is OFF, a single LED will light to show the
current setting. When the spreader is ON, the number
of blue LEDs illuminated will increase/decrease as the
knobs are turned clockwise/counterclockwise.
The hopper drive will not deliver material until the ON
button is pressed.
The Material Width (left) knob controls spinner speed.
Turning the knob clockwise will increase the width of
the application area.
The Material Flow (right) knob controls the hopper
drive. Turning the knob clockwise will increase the
feed rate of material to the spinner.
Turning the control knobs counterclockwise will
decrease the width of the application area and the
feed rate of material.
BLAST/Maximum Application
1. Press and hold the BLAST button when maximum
fl
ow rate and application area are needed
temporarily. The BLAST button will illuminate
while depressed.
2. Release the button when maximum application
settings are no longer needed.
NOTE: Spinner speed and material feed rate revert
to the previous settings once the BLAST button
is released.
