OPERATION
Attaching and detaching
- Attach the
RINK Disk Spreader DS3100
to the towing vehicle.
- Connect hydraulic lines (3) and (4) to the towing vehicle, as closed oil circulation is
required (see p. 9 – fig. 1).
- Connect securely valve actuator (5) for the conveyor belt to the towing vehicle through
the supplied mount (see p. 9 – fig. 1).
-
In case of external oil supply

(see p. 16)
plug on the plug-on pump onto the PTO
connecting joint of the tractor and secure against twisting using the fitted torque arm. The
PTO shaft may only be switched on in stationary throttle, since switching on the PTO
shaft under load may lead to breakage of the linking pinion of the gear pump. To enable
optimum operating mode, the PTO shaft rotating speed must be approx. 450 1/min
corresponding to 25 l/min. The oil temperature at the start of the works should be approx.
25
o
C (sight glass on oil tank); warm up the hydraulic system if necessary. Too low PTO
shaft rotation speed or oil temperature affects the performance of the spreader. Before
the works are started, check the oil level in the hydraulic tank (middle of the sight glass).
At the moment of shipment, the hydraulic system is filled with hydraulic oil

. Too low oil level may lead to the hydraulic pump damage.
- Plug in the seven-pin plug of the lighting system at the towing vehicle
(see p. 17 – fig. 10).
- Fully raise the support wheel, then release the support wheel clamp and pull the support
wheel upward as far as possible and clamp it.
Lay hydraulic hoses so that they neither touch the ground, nor rub the
towing vehicle.
Detaching occurs in reverse order!
Depressurise the hydraulic system at the towing vehicle before detaching.
Before each course
- Check the
RINK Disk Spreader DS3100
for visible damages and repair them.
- Check the tyre pressure.
- Check the guide track of the conveyor belt, adjust if necessary to prevent side rubbing
(see p. 15).
- Check the lighting system#.
Loading
- Observe the desired maximum ground pressure.
- Observe permissible total weight when loading.
