5.1. SHUTTING OFF AND LOCKING OUT POWER
WARNING
: SHUTOFF AND LOCKOUT POWER BEFORE CLEANING, ADJUSTING, LUBRICATING
OR SERVICING THIS SPREADER. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY
OR DEATH.
Whenever adjusting, cleaning, lubricating or otherwise servicing this spreader, you must shutoff and lockout
power to the spreader. Because this spreader can be truck mounted or powered by a tractor, methods vary.
On truck mounted units, the connection between the truck and the spreader is permanently installed and not
intended to be disconnected. On trucks, disengage the PTO drive, turn off the engine, set the parking brake,
remove the ignition keys and keep them in your possession to prevent anyone else from accidentally applying
power to the box unexpectedly. For tractors, disconnect the PTO, disconnect and relieve pressure of the
hydraulics, turn off the tractor and set the brakes.
Throughout this manual, when directed to shutoff and lockout power, be familiar with the previously described
procedures for the type of machine you are operating.
5.2. TRACTOR SETUP
IMPORTANT: NEVER OPERATE PTO ABOVE ITS NORMAL 1000 RPM RATING. TRACTOR'S PTO MUST
MATCH IMPLEMENT PTO.
This spreader must be operated with a 1000 RPM PTO. No
PTO adapter may be used to alter speed or geometry. The
hitch of the spreader is designed for a standard tractor
drawbar. Adjust the drawbar at 15 to 22 inches above the
ground. Extend or shorten the drawbar so horizontal distance
from end of tractor PTO shaft to center of the hitch pin hole is
20” (1 3/4-20), 16” (1 3/8-21). Secure the drawbar so that the
hitch pin hole is located directly below the PTO drive line. See
FIGURE 1 for location of standard measurements.
An improperly located hitch point may cause damage to the
universal joints of the PTO drive shaft. Conforming to the
standard 16" or 20” drawbar & PTO relationship will ensure
that the PTO drive shaft will not become over-extended.
