Tractor PTO Horsepower Requirements:
The PTO horsepower requirements may not reflect adequate
tractor size for towing the machine. Refer to tractor weight requirements for these recommendations and
safety section for additional tractor and towing requirements.
5.7.4. SAFETY CHAIN
CAUTION:
A SAFETY CHAIN MUST BE INSTALLED TO RETAIN THE CONNECTION BETWEEN
TRACTOR (OR OTHER TOWING VEHICLE) AND SPREADER WHENEVER TRAVELING ON PUBLIC
ROADS IN CASE THE HITCH CONNECTION WOULD SEPARATE. A SUGGESTED ATTACHMENT IS
ILLUSTRATED ON FIGURE 4.
The chain must be of adequate
size to hold the weight of the
loaded spreader (See table on
page 17). See your ag cart or
wagon owner / operator’s and parts
book, which is also available at
www.meyermfg.com. If using a
grab hook at the end(s) of the
chain to secure the chain to itself, a
hook latch must be installed.
The length of the safety chain is
not to be any longer than
necessary
to
turn
without
interference. If any chain links or
attachment hardware are broken or
stretched, repair before using.
Store chain so it does not corrode
or become damaged. Do not use this chain for other implements because the strength and length of the
chain may not be adequate. Identify this chain for use on this particular spreader. Do not use the
intermediate support as the attaching point.
If you do not have a safety chain, or need a replacement safety chain, see your local Meyer dealer and do
not operate on public roads until you are able to travel with the safety chain properly installed.
5.7.5. OPTIONAL BRAKE PACKAGE
See INST-BRAKE-IMT for maintenance and adjustment information on this optional brake equipment. Call
Meyer Manufacturing Corporation at 1-800-325-9103 for a replacement manual.
