Operating the Spreader
PREPARATION
CAUTION – Sweep area clear of foreign objects or obstacles that could cause personal injury. Keep other persons, children, or
animals out of the area to be spread.
SPREADER LOADING
WARNING –
Do not overload vehicle. Use chart below to calculate weight of material. Weights of material are an average for
dry materials .
Material Weight Per Cubic Ft.
Rock Salt 35-40 lbs.
Sand/Salt Mix 95-120 lbs.
• Be sure to comply with manufacturer’s maximum gross vehicle weight ratings.
• Warning – Never leave materials in hopper for long periods of time as salt is hygroscopic and will attract atmospheric moisture
and harden up. When spreading sand mix, a 1:1 ratio for Sand/Salt mix is recommended to prevent the material from freezing.
SPREADING TIPS
• Never exceed 10 m.p.h. when spreading.
• For a wider pass, increase spinner speed.
• For a heavier pass, drive slower, or increase auger speed.
• Never operate spreader near pedestrians.
• Spread ice melters with the storm to prevent unmanageable levels of ice.
• Calculate spread pattern when near vegetation.
V-MAXX 8500H/9500H/2400H OPERATION
• Speed of auger and spinner may be adjusted separately to get desired flow and spread distance
from spreader.
• The Vibrator Switch is needed for dense material or to increase the flow to the auger. This eliminates bridging of material
in hopper.
