two or more people are recommended. Move 
spreader rearward until it balances at the rear of 
the bed. Carefully lower the back of the spreader 
to the ground so it is resting on its feet.

6.  Tip the spreader up onto spacers at least 2" tall, 

so it is fully supported by the feet.

7. 

Do not leave an unsecured spreader standing 
on its feet.

 After pulling the truck away, either 

lower the spreader so it is resting on its 6 legs or 
properly support it with blocks and secure it as 
directed in the Storage Section. If lowering the 
spreader onto its 6 legs, place spacers under the 
legs so the feet at the rear of the spreader are off 
the ground.
