2.Check for worn or damaged parts before each use.
Repair or replace parts if necessary.
CHECK TIRE INFLATION
3.Check if tires are adequately inflated before each use.
Do not inflate beyond maximum recommended pres-
sure.

STORAGE
1.If the axle, slotted gear and sprocket assembly is
disassembled, mark down the positions of the parts as
they are removed. The drive wheel and sprocket
positions in relation to the slotted gear determine which
direction the spreader plate will spin. Be sure to reas-
semble them in their original positions. (Refer to figure
5 on page 5.) Use shim washers (Ref. no. 21 on pages
10 and 11) as needed for minimum backlash. Add
grease to gear and sprocket.
2.If the agitator wire becomes damaged or worn it can be
replaced. Loosen the 3/8" hex nut on top of sprocket
shaft until agitator wire is free. Remove old agitator
wire from hole in agitator sleeve and replace with new
agitator wire. Position agitator wire so that sprocket
shaft turns freely, then tighten 3/8" hex nut on top of
sprocket shaft. See figure 16.
