Section 6 - Transportation / Storage - 

Nitro

WARNING: Turn off all power during cleaning and inspection. Do not use power to move any 

components or to discharge material while cleaning or inspecting.

4. 

Hose off manure from the outside and inside of the spreader. Completely clean manure from moving 

mechanisms such as the beaters and rear gate. Remove accumulation in confined areas or pockets that 

trap manure.

5. 

Avoid directing high pressure spray directly on bearings, seals, flow control valve, and electrical devices.

6.  Keep high pressure spray moving on painted surfaces. Sustained spray on cracks or scratches in paint can 

result in paint peeling.

7.  Allow machine to dry.

8.  Lower rear gate completely down before storing spreader.

9.  Inspect the spreader for loose connections, damaged hydraulic hoses or connections and for other 

damaged components. Repair if necessary so the spreader is ready for future operation. See 

Hydraulic
