The following procedure is a guide:
1.
Field test over any suitable course which allows vehicle to be driven at speeds to be used while spreading.
2.
Make sure unit has been properly serviced, that oil reservoir is full and gate valve under reservoir is fully open.
Do not load spreader.
3.
Manual spinner control valve: Set to position “5”.
PWM spinner control valve: Run at 500 RPM.
DANGER
Take proper safety precautions when observing conveyor and spinner speed while vehicle
is in motion! These may include use of suitable mirrors clamped to permit observation by a
safely seated observer, following the spreader in another vehicle at a safe distance, or other
suitable means. Do not stand on fenders, in body or on any part of spreader as there is
danger of falling off the vehicle or into moving parts! Use great care in performing this test!
4.
Start truck engine. Turn control to “on’’ position. Engage PTO and allow to run at fast idle long enough to
bring hydraulic oil up to operating temperature. Spinners should revolve at moderate speed and the conveyor
should not move.
5.
Refer to control’s operation manual for conveyor operating instructions. Set program to operational mode
and begin forward travel. Move conveyor switch to “on’’ position. Conveyor should start immediately when
vehicle moves and should continue to run at speeds which should vary directly with the vehicles road speed;
the conveyor should speed up as truck speed increases and slow down as truck speed reduces. Spinner speed
should remain constant when engine speed is above minimum operating range.
