PRACTICAL USE
When setting the spreading system of the machine, say vane setting, PTO speed
and limiter, see the paragraph ’PRACTICAL USE’ S2 / S3.
S2 Trail reaches its maximum spread width at 16 Km/h
– corresponding to 400
rpms/min. on the spreading disc of the machine. It's not recommended to go faster
than 16 Km/h when spreading as it'll reduce the agitator's functionality and service
life.
Mount the spreader in the draw bar of the pulling vehicle.
The top link of the machine is adjusted in such a way that the spreading disc is
horizontal.
Check that the spreading disc is running easily and that shutter and setting
handle are easy to move.
Take away hard lumps and especially stones.
When driving with a full hopper it is NOT recommended to drive on an uneven
surface for a longer period of time
– this might cause the material to compact.
Agitator and spreading disc must be disengaged if more than 100 m are driven
with closed shutter
(Avoid if possible that agitator and spreading disc are rotating when the shutter is closed)
Spreading disc and agitator can with advantage be disengaged instead of
closing the shutter
– as most types of material stay in the hopper when the
agitator do not rotate.
AGITATOR
Agitator and spreading disc are engaged when the spreader
is stopped.
The spreader is standard supplied with agitator for humit SAND
and SALT (Agitator with rubber disc and rubber fingers).
When spreading very rough material / small crushed stones the
free wheeling agitator is used (Optional equipment).
When spreading dry smooth-running materials
– for instance dry salt or urea
the special free wheeling agitator is also used.
o
Alternatively
the standard agitator’s axle is dismounted (agitator axle
with rubber disc) in a way that only the lower ejector part is used. This
solution might induce crushing/grinding of the material.
