SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
9
WARNING
Always replace guards before operating manure spreader. If guards or decals become damaged or lost, contact
dealer or factory for free replacements.
Failure to heed these instructions could result in severe personal injury or
death.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
• Check the spreader each time it is used for loose, bent, broken or missing parts. During operation, listen for
abnormal sounds which might indicate loose parts or other damage. Correct any problems immediately.
• Rinse manure out of the spreader after each use to prevent rust and avoid winter freezedown.
LUBRICATING INSTRUCTIONS
As with any type of equipment, the life of the unit is dependent upon the lubrication care given by the operator.
Lubrication should be done at regular intervals to avoid premature failure.
Bearing, Sprocket & Chain Lubrication:
Grease bearings and sprockets after every 6-hours of use and just before storage
(with a multi-purpose grade of grease)
.
Grease lube fittings until grease begins to seep from fittings.
Replace fittings when they will not take grease
(all lube fittings are SAE standard)
.
Six locations require greasing
(marked by "6 hr." grease decals).
ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Apron-Chain Tension:
1) Pull up on the floor apron-chain flight at center of the
spreader box length.
2) If you can lift the bottom of flight higher than 2", the chain
is too loose
(which can cause premature chain and sprocket
wear).
3) If you can not lift the bottom of flight at least 2", the chain
is too tight (causing excessive loads on all components).
4) To adjust the apron-chain tension, use the 3/8 x 6" tension
bolts on each side of the front apron shaft.
5) Check that chains on each side of apron are equally
taut.
Cam Arm Pulley:
Check alignment of cam arm pulley with cam. Cam should align with center of pulley.
Fasteners:
Tighten all fasteners after approximately 10-hours of use. This should include all bolts, nuts and set screws.
Periodically tighten all fasteners to prevent elongation of holes and premature component failure.
Disengage apron chain & beater, block wheels, and disconnect
from power source, before adjusting or servicing.
Lubricate apron chain and roller chain with chain lube or motor oil once a month.
Lubrication will reduce friction, quiet spreader and greatly extend chain life.
