To reduce the amount of noise and
vibration produced by the spreader:
1.
Keep all mechanical fasteners and
guards tight and in their proper location.
2. Periodically clean built-up material from
spinner disc.
3.
Keep drag chain and roller chains
properly adjusted and lubricated.
4. Keep all bearings properly lubricated.
5.
Decrease gasoline engine RPM before
engaging clutch.
6. Use optional hopper vibrator only as
needed.
7. Only spread clean material free of
debris such as rocks, wood, asphalt, etc.
8. Maintain engine exhaust system per
engine manufacturer’s recommendations.
Noise & Vibration Reduction
Operating Instructions
Filling Hopper
The hopper should only be filled with clean, dry, free
flowing salt, sand or salt/sand mix. Commercial bagged
ice melt materials may be used. Spreader is not designed
to spread ag lime, gravel, rock, cinders, or any other ag-
gregate materials. Only fill the hopper with the top screen
installed to prevent foreign objects or frozen clumps of
material from entering the hopper and damaging the
conveyor system. Do not leave unused material inside of
hopper when not in use. Do not let material freeze inside
of hopper.
Gearbox: Never apply tor ue to output shaft of gearbo .
Gearbox is designed to only accept torque from the input shaft.
Engaging Conveyor: To prevent premature wear of the
electric clutch, roller chain and v-belt, engine throttle speed
should be lowered to idle before engaging electric clutch.
Electric Clutch: To achieve maximum torque, new elec-
tric clutches should be burnished prior to the first use.
Refer to the maintenance section of this manual for clutch
burnishing procedure.
Transporting Spreader: It is recommended to turn off
the fuel to the engine when transporting spreader without
the engine running.
Swing-up Spinner: Do not transport spreader with the
spinner in the up position.
Regulating amount of material being spread
The amount of material being spread depends upon
the conveyor speed and feed gate setting. A slower
conveyor speed and lowering the feed gate will decrease
the amount of material being spread. A faster conveyor
speed and raising the feed gate will increase the amount
of material being spread.
To adjust conveyor speed:
1. Gasoline Engine driven spreader: Increase conveyor
speed by increasing engine speed, decrease conveyor
speed by decreasing engine speed.
2. Electric Motor driven spreader: Increase conveyor speed
by increasing electric motor speed, decrease conveyor
speed by decreasing engine speed.
3. Hydraulic driven spreader Increase conveyor speed by
increasing oil flow to hydraulic motor, decrease conveyor
speed by decreasing oil flow to the hydraulic motor.
Adjusting Feed Gate:
1. Loosen adjusting knob.
2. Raise or lower handle until feedgate is at desired height.
3. Firmly tighten ad usting knob.
Regulating the spread pattern
The spread pattern is the width and direction of material
spread. The width of the spread pattern can be regulated by
increasing or decreasing the spinner disc speed. The direc-
tion of the spread pattern can be regulated by adjusting the
internal and external baffles on the spinner assembly.
