On hillsides, the spreader will throw material further down hill than up. However, this just shifts
the spread pattern sideways and subsequent passes overlap properly. It is important to divide the
flow of the fertilizer equally between both distributors. This is accomplished with a center
divider, which extends from the flow divider to the gate.
Humidity
– This causes fertilizer to adhere to flow divider and spinner blades. This build-up
of material will change the spread pattern. More of a problem is the fertilizer that adheres to the
conveyor chain and is carried forward under the spreader. This fertilizer falls off in a narrow
streak and will show up as a difference in crop growth. Any build-up of fertilizer on the spreader
should be cleaned off when it first begins to form.
Wind
– When the wind is with or against the direction of travel it does not offset the spread
pattern too much. A crosswind will shift the entire pattern sideways. The final pattern remains
reasonably accurate for wind up to 15 mph. Crosswinds have more of an affect on lower density
materials. Diagram C shows how wind can affect spread patterns.
