ENGLISH ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS 5/32 x 2 in. COTTER PIN (I) TOOLS REQUIRED FOR ASSEMBLY (1) Pliers (2) 7/16 in. open or boxed end wrenches 9/64 x 1-1/2 in. COTTER PIN (J) 5/8 in. FLAT WASHER (H) 1. Remove the spreader, the loose parts and the hardware package from the carton. Lay out parts and hardware and identify using the illustrations on pages 2 and 3. 2. With the spreader resting upside down on the top of the hopper, assemble a 5/8 in. flat washer, a spacer and a second 5/8 in.
7. For the standard setup, use the holes shown in the illustration. Other hole combinations allow different handle heights and hopper angles. Do not use holes in stand that are farthest apart as a combination - flow gate may not close completely. Attach the stand to the hopper frame tube using two 1/4 x 1-1/2 in. bolts and nylock nuts. Attach the stand to the lower handle using two 1/4 x 1-1/2 in. bolts and nylock nuts. Tighten all four bolts to secure the stand. See figure 4. USE MIDDLE HOLE 9.
12. Insert the end of the flow control rod through the slot in the flow control mounting bracket and through the hole in the flow control lever. Secure with a 1/8 in. x 3/4 in. cotter pin. See figure 8. 14. Adjust the position of the flow control mounting bracket (figures 10 and 11): a. Set the adjustable stop at “5.” Latch the flow control lever against the stop. Verify that the closure plate has opened about halfway. See figure 10. 1/8 x 3/4 in. COTTER PIN (K) b.
15. Place the hopper screen down into the hopper, sliding the ends into the clips in the hopper. The screen helps break up clumpy material and prevents large clumps from reaching the bottom of the hopper and clogging the opening. See figure 12. 1. To adjust the flow to be heavier to the left side, tighten the thumbscrew so the plate is pushed inward. See figure 13 2. To adjust the flow to be heavier to the right side, loosen the thumbscrew so the plate is pulled outwards.
IMPORTANT: Application rates shown in the chart are affected by humidity and by the moisture content of the material (granular and pellet). Some minor setting adjustments may be necessary to compensate for this condition. 9. To insure uniform coverage, make each pass so that the broadcast pattern slightly overlaps the pattern from the previous pass as shown in figure 14. The approximate broadcast widths for different materials are shown in the Application Diagram figure 14. 10.
MAINTENANCE CHECK FOR LOOSE FASTENERS GREASE 1. Before each use, make a thorough visual check of the spreader for any bolts and nuts which may have loosened. Retighten any loose bolts and nuts. OIL CHECK FOR WORN OR DAMAGED PARTS 2. Check for worn or damaged parts before each use. Repair or replace parts if necessary. CHECK TIRE INFLATION 3. Check if tires are adequately inflated before each use. Do not inflate tires beyond maximum recommended pressure on tire.
