PREPARING FOR OPERATION
Attach the Top Shot PTO to the tractor PTO shaft, locking
it into position and check distance by the following.
1. Maintain a straight alignment between the
Top Shot
and the tractor.
2. Maintain a distance of 6”-12” between the top of the
tractor drawbar and the center of the tractor PTO. An
8” distance is standard.
After the correct distance is obtained, slide back the coupler lock and attach the PTO drive to the tractor
PTO shaft. Make sure that the coupler locks onto the PTO shaft; slide it back and forth until it locks.
NOTE:
Do NOT attempt to use a hammer to help in attaching the PTO drive connection.
NOTE: Remove the tractor 3-point quick hitch if the tractor is equipped with one. Tractor 3-point arms must
be removed or positioned so they do not come in contact with the Top Shot tongue or PTO. Failure to
heed will cause damage and void the warranty.
PTO
The
Top Shot
is equipped with a constant velocity telescoping PTO drive
shaft. This constant velocity capability results in a smooth, quiet running
drive line without power fluctuation. The Top Shot can only be properly
hooked up to a tractor which has PTO and hitch dimensions conforming
to ASAE Standard S203. Horsepower required may vary according to
the consistency of material to be spread, ground speed, and terrain. To
prevent damage to the telescoping PTO drive, DO NOT allow the tractor’s
rear tires to make contact with the PTO or Top Shot while making sharp
turns. Be careful when pulling the Top Shot with a tractor that is equipped
with dual rear tires.
NOTE:
The maximum joint angle must not exceed 80º whether in operation
or not. Any angle greater than 80º will result in damage to the joint. For
continuous operation, the maximum joint angle must be limited to 35º.
Any continuous operation at angles greater than 35º will shorten joint life.
Hydraulics
The Top Shot requires a 4-hose hook-up:
- 2 hoses for raising/lowering the main auger.
- 2 hoses for opening/closing the discharge
door.
Before starting the tractor, make sure each set
of hydraulic hoses connects to the appropriate
set of remote outlets on the tractor. Operate
the tractor valve to fill the hydraulic lines and
operate the cylinders. Add hydraulic fluid to the
tractor system as required.
