HELPFUL TROUBLE-SHOOTING TIPS
1.
NOT FEEDING EVEN
A.
Seed gate opening may be set too close for the material being spread. To overcome, set the opening larger
and drive faster to obtain same spread rate.
B.
Check material for foreign matter.
C.
Check agitator drive pin for shear.
2.
POOR SPREAD
A.
Too much speed (over 560 PTO rpm) can cause uneven spread.
B.
PTO speed too slow (PTO rpm under 520 rpm) will result in a narrow speed.
C.
Bent fan blades.
D.
Drive pin sheared or missing on fan hub.
E.
Too windy for material being spread.
F.
Agitator problem. Check tips under “Not Feeding Even.”
G. Operator not spacing spread runs properly for correct overlap.
For best results, cover area twice over at one-half recommended material usage rate. The second time
over, run halfway between first spreading width or in a criss-cross pattern. This method allows the most
complete and even coverage, as well as to give operator a chance to adjust gate setting to compensate for
too thin or too heavy a covering the first time over.
H.
Seeder/spreader should run level or tilted slightly forward. Make sure lift arms on tractor are adjusted so
one side is not lower than the other.
I.
Running agitator when not spreading can result in material being group up and possibly packing over
control gate opening. You can “over-agitate” material.
