GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Installation Section
1. The selection of the vehicle on which a
spreader body is to be mounted has
important safety aspects. To avoid
overloading:
a.
Do not mount spreader on a chassis
which, when fully loaded with material
to be spread, will exceed either the
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)
or the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) for the chassis.
b. Do install the spreader only on a
vehicle with cab-to-axle dimension
recommended for the spreader body
length shown.
2. Follow mounting instructions in the
Installation section of this manual. If
mounting conditions require deviation
from these instructions refer to factory.
3. When making the installation, be sure that the lighting meets Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
(FMVSS) No. 108 and all applicable local and state regulations.
4. When selecting a PTO to drive hydraulic pump, do not use a higher percent speed drive than the Truck-
PTO-Pump Match Graph indicates in the Installation section of this manual. Too high a percent PTO will
drive pump at excessive speed, which can ruin the pump, but more importantly, will overheat the hydraulic
oil system and increase the possibility of fire.
5. When truck frame must be shortened, cut off only the portion
that extends behind rear shackle in accordance with the truck
manufacturer’s recommendations. If a torch is used to make
the cut, all necessary precautions should be taken to prevent
fire. Cuts should not be made near fuel tanks and hydraulic oil
reservoirs, fuel, brake, electric or hydraulic lines and such lines
should be protected from flame, sparks or molten metal. Tires
should be removed if there is any chance of their being struck
by flame, sparks or molten metal. Have a fire extinguisher
handy.
