The rubber lip plate and the sweeping plate
The operation of the spreaders is based on the two rubber plates leaning against the spreading axle, which
makes controlled spreading of the material possible. If the spreading result is uneven after cleaning and
adjusting the equipment, the condition of the rubber plates, shown in the figures below, must be checked.
The edge of the plates should be even, and they should be adjusted to lean lightly against the axle. Please
contact your nearest AVANT service if needed.

Checking and adjusting the chain drive
The roller chain transmission between the hydraulic motor and the mixing and spreading axles should be
inspected whenever the protective cover is opened for lubricating the bearings. Clean the chain housing and
lubricate the chain with suitable type of oil. The tightness of the chain can be checked by pushing the chain
between the sprockets with moderate force. The clearance of the chain should be about 0.5 – 1 cm. If
necessary, the chain is adjusted by moving the hydraulic motor until the chain is at correct tightness. Tighten
any loosened bolts and fit the protective cover back to its place.
