1540 TEC OPERATING SPEEDS
When the 1540 TEC top dresser is mounted to the
truck, the
maximum ground speed of the truck
should not exceed 8 Km/h (5 MPH).
Safety concerns
and excessive stress on the truck and the top dresser
will occur if speeds are in excess of 8 Km/h (5 MPH).
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY
and To Avoid Damage to the truck and 1540 TEC
top dresser, DO NOT Drive or Operate the 1540
TEC Top Dresser At Speeds Over 8 Km/h (5 MPH).
The ground speed of the truck must be constant to
ensure an even and equal distribution of top dressing
material. The trucks engine speed must be maintained
to ensure a constant and even supply of hydraulic
power. Choose a gear and throttle/governor setting
that will give a maximum ground speed of 8 Km/h (5
MPH). If top dressing speed exceeds 8 Km/h (5 MPH),
poor and uneven top dressing application will result as
well as unsafe operating conditions. For best results,
the 1540 TEC should be moving before the spinner
assembly is engaged.
