but when fully extended, the overlap between the
sliding members must be no less than half of that
which exists when the shaft is fully retracted.
Note that when lowering the machine on the pick-up
hitch, the PTO shaft will retract slightly. The shaft
should therefore always be disconnected before
lowering the hitch.
Remove the tractor lower links if possible to eliminate
the possibility of damaging the PTO shaft and
hydraulic hoses when negotiating turns. If the links
cannot be removed, position them such that they clear
spreader components when turning and crossing
undulating ground.
OPERATION
WINTER USE
During extreme conditions, it is possible for the slats to
become frozen onto the bed of the machine, thus
preventing movement of the conveyor. Attempting to
operate the machine in this condition may result in
serious damage to the driveline. Before loading,
check that the slats are free to move. Release them
with a bar, chisel or hot water if necessary.
During very cold weather, a pause of just a few hours
can be sufficient to allow the slats to once again
freeze to the bed.
Never leave the spreader filled with a load. The load
can freeze and cause severe problems in unloading.
LOADING
Before loading, check that no solid objects have been
placed in the spreader. Warranty does not cover
damage caused by solid or foreign objects.
If the spreader is fitted with the optional clevis
drawbar, do not load, or allow a loaded machine to
rest with the jack taking the weight. Instead, the
drawbar should be connected to the towing tractor and
the jack raised completely.
Before loading, ensure there are no bystanders, run
the PTO at low idle to ensure that everything is
operating correctly. If fitted with the optional slurry
door, raise it sufficiently to clear the bed slats, operate
the bed drive in order to check functionality and
ensure there are no hydraulic oil leaks.
The spreading performance typically depends upon:
A) The type and consistency of material being spread
B) The machine loading procedure
The machine will spread most types of manure and
compost, but in the case of fresh farmyard manure,
the order in which loading is carried out can noticeably
affect spreading performance. Loading in the order
shown in Figure 2 will give the best results. Load from
front to back in successive layers, A,B,C,D etc.
Do not pack material into the spreader, either by using
the loader or tipping from an excessive height. Heavy
dense material should either be broken up before
loading, or loaded in small blocks, for best results.
Figure 2. Order in which machine should be loaded
for best performance
During loading, always look for foreign objects and
discard any found. Concrete blocks, bricks, scrap iron
etc. can cause serious damage to the machine and
even personal injury.
Do not load the machine to a height above the top of
the rear beaters.
STARTING TO SPREAD
Where the tractor has a choice of PTO speeds select
1000rpm. To reduce the loading on the PTO universal
joints, always engage the PTO as gently as possible,
with the engine at low idle and with the spreader and
tractor in a straight line. Increase tractor engine speed
in order to achieve 1000rpm PTO speed.
If fitted with the optional slurry door raise it fully if the
material to be spread is stackable, but only slightly if
material contains a moderate amount of liquid slurry.
As a guide;
Fluid slurry: Maximum opening 200mm
Thick slurry: 300 - 400mm
The spreading width and spread rate will depend upon
the consistency of the material being spread. A
precise rate setting will necessitate calibration over a
small area based upon a measurement of bout width,
distance travelled, forward speed, bed conveyor
speed and the actual volume of material spread.
Select a suitable forward speed at the same time as
engaging the bed conveyor drive hydraulic spool.
DURING SPREADING
Turning whilst spreading should always be kept to an
absolute minimum for good PTO shaft life. The use of
a Wide Angle PTO shaft is recommended where
significant turning under power is required. The table
and diagrams in Figure 3 indicate recommended
maximum joint angles. Always disengage the PTO
when turning sharply at the headlands.
If the rear beaters become blocked it is possible to
change the bed conveyor direction by reversing flow
from the hydraulic spool. This will move the load
forward in the body to help any blockage clear. The
hydraulic oil flow can then be changed back and
spreading continue.
