Attach Handle Assembly
(see fig 3)
1.
Assemble handle assemble to support arms
by inserting handle tubes located under handle
housing, into support tubes. At the same time
insert the linkage rod into the hole provided at the
top of the handle assembly. With the rod handle
(3016760) inserted onto rod.
2.
Align holes on handle assembly with holes in
support tubes and fasten with ¼-20 bolts, washers,
and nylock nuts.
3.
Use (4) ¼-20 x 1.5” bolts on the triangular face of
the handle assembly. And use (2) ¼-20 x 2.50” on
the handle portion.
4.
Tighten all fasteners.
WARNING
When filling hopper, make certain there are no large
objects within the material. Objects larger than the
openings in the Screen may cause the spreader to
clog or even damage the drive system. Never leave
material in the hopper when not in use.

Maintenance
1.
The Hopper should be completely emptied and
cleaned before storage.
2.
The Spreader should be washed and dried before
storage.
3.
Check that the flow gate and Linkage move
freely. Clear out any debris between the Augers &
the Hopper.
4.

will be difficult to remove.
Operation Notes:
1.
The spreader is designed to be operated at
a brisk walking pace (approx. 3 mph). Walking
slower or faster will alter the distribution pattern
and amount of the material, as will the moisture
content of the material & other environmental
factors.
2.
Grease may be applied to the wheel axles, and
moving parts as desired.
