SERVICE LEVEL MAINTENANCE
If the spinner assembly is removed, the WideSpin
1540 TEC can be used as a material handler for
top dressing material. With the spinner assembly
removed, top dressing material will drop out of the
back of the unit and not be spread. Material handling
rates are adjustable by using the metering gate and
the conveyor belt speed control.
Use the following steps to remove the spinner assembly.
Refer to Figure 37
:
Step 1.
Use the electronic control box to set the spinner
speed to “Zero”.
Step 2.
Remove the deflector from the rear of the
WideSpin 1540 TEC.
Step 3.
Disconnect the spinner assembly’s two quick-
disconnect hydraulic hoses. One hose is connected
to the spinner assembly’s left spinner wheel motor,
the other is connected to the WideSpin 1540 TEC
manifold valve block (located under the right side
fender).
Step 4.
Remove the 1/2” hex head bolts (quantity 4)
holding the spinner assembly to the WideSpin 1540
TEC frame.
Step 5.
Lift the spinner assembly up and remove from
the rear member of the WideSpin 1540 TEC frame.
Use caution not to bend or damage the small
hopper assembly located on the top of the spinner
assembly.
The spinner assembly weights 68 Kg
(150 pounds). Use proper lifting equipment and
techniques.
Step 6.
Pull the hydraulic hose that is hanging out of
the rear of the WideSpin 1540 TEC back through
the hole in the frame. Connect the quick-release
from that hose to the manifold valve block. Connect
to the fitting on the block that was previous used by
the other spinner assembly hose.
Refer to the decal
on the rear of the WideSpin 1540 TEC frame.
