PRE-OPERATION
GENERAL
Read the entire Owner’s Manual before attempting to
operate this manure spreader. Before attempting any
maintenance or repairs; always be sure all rotating
parts have stopped and that the tractor is shut off,
disconnect the PTO, relieve all hydraulic pressure
and disconnect hydraulic hoses.
WARNING
Never operate spreader with any guards or shields
removed. Failure to heed may result in serious
personal injury or death.
1. Completely lubricate the unit as described in the
Maintenance Section of this manual.
2. Check and tighten the wheel lug nuts if required.
3. Check and maintain the tire pressure according
to the Maintenance Section of this manual.
4. Check the entire unit for loose bolts, damaged or
loose hydraulic fittings and hoses or other
damaged parts.
5. The tractor half of the PTO drive shaft assembly
must be locked securely to the tractor output
shaft.
TRACTOR HOOKUP
Tractor Requirements
1. The spreader is designed to be operated by a
540 rpm PTO tractor output. In addition, 1 set of
tractor remote hydraulic ports are required, to
operate the apron drive and a second set of ports
will be required for the hydraulic end gate.
FIGURE 1. TRACTOR DRAWBAR & PTO
SPECIFICATION
2. The PTO drive shaft assembly is designed to
operate with tractors conforming to the industry
standard shown on Figure 1 for 540 RPM PTO
output.
Tractor Size
1. The spreader does not have brakes. Towing the
spreader must be done safely. The ASAE
(American Society of Agricultural Engineers)
specifies that the towing vehicle should weigh at
least 2/3 as much as the loaded implement to be
reasonably safe towing at speeds up to 20 mph.
This (20 mph) is also the maximum
recommended towing speed for the spreader.
2. The loaded weight of your spreader will naturally
vary with the moisture of the manure and you
must consider that for your conditions. The
loaded weight capacities as specified by the
spreader manufacturer are as follows:
