DESCRIPTION OF THE WIDE
SPIN
1530
LIGHTSPREAD AND HEAVYSPREAD SETTINGS
The WIDE
SPIN
1530 has two settings to control top
dressing material volume rates and the spread patterns.
The LIGHTSPREAD setting is used for frequent top
dressing applications and provides the widest broadcast
pattern with a “light” volume of top dressing material. The
HEAVYSPREAD setting is used for narrower broadcast
pattern with a “heavy” volume of top dressing material.
Changing between Lightspread and Heavyspread
requires repositioning the spread diverter, changing
spinner speed control setting, changing the metering
gate setting, and repositioning the spinner wheel vane
angles.
