MAINTENANCE
General Maintenance
Check the spreader each time it is used for loose, bent, broken or missing parts or fasteners.
Never store material in the spreader in cold weather. The material could freeze against the sides
and floor of the spreader and cause severe damage to the apron drive system.
Clean the excess material off the sides of the spreader after each use. Fertilizer can be highly
acidic so if there are any scratches in the paint it will immediately begin to rust.
Wheel & Tire Maintenance
Check wheel lug torque once a month or after each period of use. Wheel lugs should be torqued
to 120 ft./lbs.
Check tire pressure before each period of use. Recommended tire pressure is stamped on the
sidewall of each tire.
Wheel Bearing Maintenance
Remove the hub and check consistency of the wheel bearing grease at least once a year. If the
grease is not the same consistency of fresh grease (either dry and caked or too thin) repack the
bearings with fresh grease. Retighten the spindle nut to 25 ft. lb., then back off one notch to insert
cotter pin.
The axle can be adusted by removing the bolts that
hold the axle hanger in place. Before adjusting the
axle, make sure the spreader is safely supported on
both sides. Keep in mind the weight of the spreader.
Always keep at least 6 bolts in to secure the axle
hanger in place.
