Optional Flow Control Operation
Tractors without variable hydraulic controls may have a Nitro manure spreader with a manual flow control
or electric flow control. These options allow the operator to control the apron chain speed separate from the
tractor. The manual flow control can only be controlled from the spreader, while the electric flow control can be
controlled from the tractor cab if it’s electric flow controller is mounted in the cab.
