OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The grain spreader blade assembly

flow pattern.
1. Tilt is the adjustment of the en-
tire spreader blade, which con-
trols overall grain spreading. Tilt
is adjusted by loosening the two
U-bolts that allow the tipping of

the blade up and down. This
may vary according to bin diam-
eter and fill rate (Figure 8).
2. Spreader diverters are used to
increase or decrease grain flow
resistance over spreader blade.
With the diverters straight (Fig-
ure 9) the grain will travel fur-
ther. Angled grain diverters will
reduce the throwing distance.
3. Blade extension is used when
extra throwing distance is re-
quired for larger bins.
4. Dampers are used to control
center filling.
Single spreader diverter
end up for desired grain spread.
