ELECTRIC VIBRATOR

An electric vibrator is an option available for all Turf Tender

models. The vibrator is designed to help break up material
bridging problems in the hopper. As the main conveyor belt
pulls material out of the bottom of the hopper, some material
(i.e. wet sticky sand) can bridge or form a hollow tunnel through
the bottom of the hopper. The vibrations from the electric
vibrator will normally shake the material loose so that it will
drop onto the conveyor belt.

Activate the vibrator using the vibrator switch on the control

box. Sometimes 2 or 3 short bursts are needed to break the
material loose. The switch is a momentary switch and should
never be held in the ON position for extended periods of time.

CAUTION

Do not operate the vibrator continually as excessive
wear on the motor will result. Excessive compaction
of material in the hopper can also result making it
much more difficult to unload.

DUAL SPINNER SYSTEM

The dual spinner function of all Turf Tenders is the same.

A variety of materials from sand and larger aggregates down
to grass seed and fertilizer may be spread. Coverage widths
may be as wide as 50 feet (15 m). It should be noted that “fine
tuning” the system for the specific material being spread is
essential.

Operation

The dual spinner system is very easy to operate. The

“spinner” switch on the control box activates the spinners.
Most operators leave the spinners on at all times while spreading
a load and only turn the spinners off when the hopper is empty.
The conveyor should be turned ON as you start a pass and
OFF as you complete the pass and turn around.

For all models (except the self-contained models), the master

switch must be turned to the ON position to allow all other
controls to function. The red light will be illuminated when the
master switch has energized the rest of the control box
functions.

NOTE: To prevent battery discharge, remember to
turn the master switch to the OFF position when
not using the Turf Tender.

CAUTION

Always turn the spinners on before starting the main
conveyor. Failure to due so will result in material
piling up on the spinners.

Material discharged from the spinners can be very

dangerous; therefore no other people should be near the Turf
Tender when spreading and the operator should remain in the
tractor’s seat while the tractor is running. The velocity of
discharged material can exceed 60 miles per hour.

Electric-Control Models

The switch on the control box marked “spinner” controls

the On/Off function of the hydraulic valve. The spinner speed
dial controls the speed of the spinners. The numbers on the
dial’s scale do not represent any particular units, they are simply
reference numbers to allow you to set the sinner speed the
same each time. The relationship between spinner speed and
dial scale are fairly linear; therefore, if the dial was initially set
at 40, raising the setting to 80 would roughly double spinner
speed.
