 Read all safety decals on the spreader before operating. 

3.

 Check to make sure all safety guards are securely 

mounted into place before operating this spreader.

 Verify that all personnel are clear of the spreader spray 

area before starting or operating this spreader. 

5.

 Do not over-load your vehicle beyond payload limits. If 

there are any questions, contact the vehicle manufacturer. 

6.

 Do not adjust, clean, lubricate or unclog material jambs 

without first turning off the spreader. 

7.

 Do not climb on or in the spreader during operation. Do not

 Make sure the spreader is securely fastened to the vehicle

 Batteries normally produce explosive gases which can 

cause personal injury. Always disconnect the battery before 
removing or replacing electrical components.

freeze or solidify, causing spreader to not work properly, and/
or damage the unit. Empty and clean after each use.
