Operating Instructions
Attaching to the tractor
1. Slide the spreader hitch over the tractor drawbar and secure with a pin.
2. The spreader disc must be horizontal to spread material uniformly. Tilt
is adjusted by removing the hardware connecting the side supports to the
hitch and either raising or lowering the hitch (See Fig. 2). Tighten all
hardware to proper torque specs. (See Torque chart on page 21).
Spreading Operation
Consider the following factors when determining material quantity distributed per acre:
1. Operating speed is determined by ground conditions. Faster speeds can be obtained on dry, even, cleared
land. Slower speeds are required for uneven ground. Making a practice run will help determine the correct
setting for spreading as conditions vary.
2. Type or material distributed, density, moisture content, etc.
3. Width of spreading area.
4. Spreader lever position.
Spreading Adjustment
Spreading can be adjusted three ways.
1. Spread pattern.
2. Amount of material distributed.
3. Spreading width.
Spread Pattern
The spread pattern can be regulated by sliding the Adjustment Lever Left, Right, or Center. (See Fig. 3)
