GENERAL MAINTENANCE
The ordinary maintenance criteria we suggest are based on the company experience and on
the advice and suggestions from customers. A good maintenance schedule keeps the operat-
ing costs of the spreader low and allows for a long spreader life.
ATTENTION!
Whichever work of maintenance, regula-
tion and cleaning must be carried out on the spreader on
the ground ( in stable conditions), engine turned off, brake
on, ignition key off and removed.
In case of damage, the operator must stop the machine immediately, assess the problem and
proceed only after problems are repaired. If pressured water or compressed air is used for the
cleaning of the machine, it is necessary to protect yourself with proper glasses and/or protec-
tion masks and to remove people and/or animals from near machine. Do not use flammable
liquids.
ATTENTION!
For maintenance operations, always use the
proper Individual Protection Devices(safety shoes and
gloves) and to take all the accident protection steps for the
type of operation to be performed.
Every 8 hours of operation, check the tightness of all nuts and bolts.
In case of unusual vibrations, check the wear of the vanes and spreading disc, the tightness of
all nuts and bolts and lubrication of gearbox. The excessive vibration of the spreader, besides
being annoying is dangerous and damaging for the entire structure, subjecting the mechanical
parts to more and more stress. It may be necessary to seek the help of specialized personnel
regarding some broke parts replacement that are not shown in this manual.
