NEW MACHINE CHECKOUT
Before attempting to use or operate the spreader it is important to be thoroughly familiarized with the
contents of this manual. Then the machine should be checked using the following check list:
1. Ground drive tire inated to 22 PSI. Tires inated to manufacturing specications.
2. All bearings lubricated and tightly mounted with collars securely locked. (See lubrication schedule
page 5.)
3. Conveyor chains, drive chain & ground drive chain adjusted to correct tension. Conveyor chain
should clear frame members by ½ - ¾.
4. Sprockets tightened & in proper alignment.
5. Inspect entire machine for loose bolts, especially in the spinner assembly and drive line area.
6. Distributor fan blades set properly. (See spread adjustment and application rates pages 7 through 25.)
7. Setting of metering gate. With the pointer on the number 1 of the spread rate chart decal, the lower
edge of the metering gate should be 1 ¼” above the trough oor.
8. Tighten wheel bolts daily – 95 foot pounds single axle spreaders.
9. Check drive line for ease of operation by turning shaft by hand. If the foregoing inspection reveals
that additional lubrication or adjustment is required, refer to the proper section of this manual for
detailed instructions.
10. Ground drive wheel and universal joint shear pins in place and tight.
11. Check both spinner gear boxes for oil; ll to level of pipe plug with SAE No. 90 non-detergen

OPERATION
SPREADER SAFETY
Before starting in motion please read the following words of caution.
A. It is recommended that initial spreading be done in as low a range as possible to permit easy break-in.
B. Always shut off or disconnect power to spreader before attempting to repair or adjust the spreader.
C. Do not transport machine with ground drive wheel engaged.
D. NEVER back-up spreader with ground drive wheel engaged.
E. Make sure that the towing vehicle brakes are operating properly and are capable of stopping the towing
vehicle.
F. If a pick-up is used as the towing vehicle, it is wise to add ballast for additional safety and traction. We
recommend that all towing vehicles be ballast loaded to their recommended G.V.W.
G. Hitches should be of heavy construction and should be welded or bolted directly to the towing vehicle
frame. Hitches should be checked routinely for loose bolts, cracked welds, etc.
H. Never tow a spreader with a drawbar pin less than 1” in diameter. Pins should also have a locking de-
vice.
I. Do not tow spreader at speeds in excess of 20 mph loaded or 40 mph empty.
J. Remember, that the stopping and braking distances vary with load and vehicle speed. It is well to famil-
iarize yourself with the characteristics of your machine under different load and speed conditions.
K. Be sure to attach safety break-away chain and the safety chain to towing vehicle to assure control of
spreader in the case of pin or hitch failure.
L. The unit is designed for hitching to vehicles with drawbar heights between 12 and 18 inches above the
ground level. It will operate with all standard tractor hitches and PTO’s. WARNING: Hydraulically
mounted drawbars must be securely and mechanically locked because a fully loaded spreader applies a
load in the order of 2000 lbs. to the hitch.
M. WARNING: Remember this unit is designed for agricultural use only and is primarily an off-the-road
vehicle and should be towed at tractor speeds ONLY, not to exceed 20 mph loaded or 40 mph empty. In-
spect hubs routinely to see if they are heating, which indicates either a need for lubrication or improper
adjustment of brakes or bearings, also check stud nuts for tightness.
N. WARNING: The maximum capacity of this unit is 6 tons (600) or 200 cubic feet, based on a material
density of 60 pounds per cubic foot. DO NOT EXCEED THIS LIMIT!
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Please read the following completely before spreading.
1) Attach spreader to towing vehicle, make sure hitch and hitch pin are sound.
2) Attach PTO shaft to proper rpm PTO.
3) Spinner discs, adjustable chute and conveyor oor should be clean for accurate metering.
4) Set metering gate to desired spread rate according to decal on the back end sheet of tank. Always keep
the machine in the lowest possible range.
5) Before starting to spread, rotate the ground drive wheel several revolutions by hand to make sure the
conveyor chain is operating freely. If chain is frozen or moves with too much resistance, correct problem
before using spreader.
6) If the ground drive wheel operates properly, check with chain and sprocket arrangement for desired
range setting and chain tension.
7) When spreading is complete, disengage ground drive assembly from the tire and install transport lockup.

WHEEL BEARING ADJUSTMENT
After repacking or when inspecting wheel bearings, the following adjustment procedure should be followed.
Place at washer and spindle nut on spindle. Turn hub as you tighten nut. When a pronounced drag is felt in the
bearings, back off nut one complete slot. If necessary continue to back off the nut until the next slot aligns with
the cotter pin hole and install cotter pin and dust cap.
CONVEYOR CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
Loosen chain take-up locking nuts on outside of front end of trough. Adjust take-up bolts evenly until chain
clears main frame members and axle tube by ¾” ½”. Inspect shaft bearing mounting bolts and shaft locking col-
lars for tightness of set screws (6 places). Reset take-up locking nuts.
STORAGE
Before storing the spreader for more than a few days, the machine should be emptied completely and thor-
oughly washed both inside and out. This precaution will minimize the severity of fertilizer acid corrosion, ex-
tend the useful life of the machine, and prevent damage to drive line and conveyor chain from fertilizer compac-
tion and caking. We further recommend that the machine be thoroughly greased after washing.
Before operating the machine after extended periods of storage, re-lubricate the entire spreader in accor-
dance with the lubrication section of this manual. Also check the entire spreader, following the New Machine
Checkout Procedure to be found in a foregoing section of the manual.
Remember that oil and grease are your least expensive corrosion inhibitors.
