OPERATION
ADJUSTING SPINNER WHEEL VANES
(See Figure 13 and 15)
Changing the vane mounting angle is necessary during
the changeover between Lightspread and Heavyspread
operations.
WARNING
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY,
Always Stop the Engine Before Making
Adjustments to the Spinner Vanes.
LIGHTSPREAD -
Readjust spinner to maximum
mounting angle (to inside of slot).
HEAVYSPREAD -
Readjust spinner to minimum
mounting angle (to outside of slot).
The mounting angle is adjusted by loosening the inside
locking screw on the vane (it is not necessary to loosen
the screw on the outside), sliding the vane to the other
end of the slot on the vane, and retightening the screw.
NOTE:
Because the right and left spinner wheels rotate
in opposite direction, the right and left vanes are a mirror
image of each other. See Figure 13 for the location and
direction of adjustment for each individual vane.

CONTROL
(See Figure 13)
Turning
the
knob
counterclockwise increases
the belt speed - clockwise
slows the belt speed.
The normal conveyor belt
speed control setting during
Heavyspread operation is
3 full turns (counterclockwise) of the knob from a fully
closed (clockwise) position. For Lightspread operation,
set at 3 or more turns.
Moisture content and the type of top dressing material
are variables that may require changing the setting of
the speed control.
Settings less than 2 turns open will result in insufficient
hydraulic flow to the power the belt.
Changing the conveyor belt speed control does not
affect the operating speed of the spinner assembly
spinner wheels.
