MAINTENANCE

Hydraulic Hopper Spreaders

1. Check 

hydraulic 

fl

 uid level before every use. Add 

fl

 uid as required.

2.  Periodically inspect the hoses and 

fi

 ttings for 

damage and possible leaks.

3.  Change the hydraulic 

fl

 uid after the 

fi

 rst 50 hours 

of operation of a new unit.

4.  Reservoir should be drained through the drain 

plug only, NOT through the suction outlet.

•  Flush and re

fi

 ll reservoir annually, or sooner if 

fl

 uid 

shows signs of break-down or contamination.

•  The use of proper hydraulic 

fl

 uid in the system is 

critical to satisfactory performance. Only clean, new 
hydraulic 

fl

 uid, of the proper type and viscosity as 

recommended by the pump manufacturer, should 
be used.

•  Keep all hydraulic 

fl

 uids in original containers. Use 

only clean measuring containers and funnels when 
pouring 

fl

 uids. Keep all containers closed when not 

in use.

To keep your spreader functioning properly, observe 
the following recommendations:

After each use:

•  Wash out hopper and rinse off all external 

surfaces.

•  Apply dielectric grease to all electrical connections 

to prevent corrosion.

•  Lubricate all grease 

fi

 ttings. Use a good quality 

multi-purpose grease.

•  Oil drive chain.

At the end of each season:

•  Wash out hopper and all external surfaces.

•  Apply dielectric grease to all electrical connections 

to prevent corrosion.

•  Lubricate all grease 

fi

 ttings. Use a good quality 

multi-purpose grease.

•  Oil or paint all bare metal surfaces.

•  Oil drive chain.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM

CORRECTION

1. Unit speed does not increase with the dial setting.

A. Increase the truck engine speed.
B. Check condition of pump.
C. Check for adequate PTO percent.

2. Unit stalls under load.

Check circuit pressure. 900-1200 PSI maximum with 
relief valve lifting at 1500 PSI.

3. Unit speed 

fl

 uctuates momentarily when control is 

fi

 rst turned ON.

A. Oil is cold. Wait until oil has warmed up.
B. Change to lighter weight oil.

4. Pump blows seals at start up.

Pump installed backwards. Replace seals and 
reverse pump in driveline. (Note arrow on pump.)
