OPERATION
EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN
In case a foreign object becomes lodged in the expeller or
auger area,
disengage the PTO. Stop the tractor engine,
remove ignition key, and allow all mechanisms to stop
before cleaning or working on the machine
. If an object is
lodged inside the tank, block-up the discharge gate and raise
the conveyor auger before attempting to remove the object.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Check the entire Manure Spreader carefully before first operation. Tighten bolts and set screws that
might have come loose in shipping. Lubricate as explained in the Lubrication Chapter in this manual.
The Manure Spreader features a large tank, forward right side discharge expeller, hydraulically controlled
discharge gate, and conveyor auger. The Manure Spreader is designed and constructed to handle a wide
variety of waste material types including liquids, semi-liquids, and limited solid material. Many potential
spreading problems can be avoided if the following guidelines are established and met:
NOTE: To prevent damage to the expeller, auger and drive line, foreign objects, such as stones,
timber or metal, should never be placed into the Manure Spreader tank.
1. In winter or freezing temperatures, make sure the auger and expeller are free to rotate and that
the discharge gate moves freely, before loading the Manure Spreader and applying PTO power.
2. The discharge gate must be closed before loading.
3. The auger is completely lowered before loading.
4. When loading packed material into the Manure Spreader with a loader bucket, try to break up any
large chunks.
5. Material which is too thick or solid to flow should only be heaped on the rear 2/3 of the Manure
Spreader.
6. When hauling extremely heavy materials with a large portion of dirt, it may be necessary to reduce
the load size to prevent excessive shear bolt breakage. Do not use extra sideboards. Do not
overload the Manure Spreader. Overloading decreases spreading effectiveness.
7. Liquid or semi-liquids that flow will self-level allowing the Manure Spreader to be filled to a level
such that sloshing or splashing material will be contained.
NOTE: Expeller feeding will diminish as bridging occurs. To counteract bridging, completely raise, and
lower the auger back down immediately. This operation will help to break-up the bridging.
