RECOMMENDED REGULAR MAINTENANCE
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT FROM BEING CAUGHT IN A TURNING AUGER, A TURNING
SPINNER, OR OTHER OPERATING TRUCK EQUIPMENT. BEFORE PERFORMING MAINTENANCE
OPERATIONS, PARK VEHICLE ON LEVEL GROUND. SET PARKING BRAKE, SHUT OFF ALL POWER,
AND SHUT OFF TRUCK ENGINE. ALWAYS REPLACE SHIELDS AND COVERS WHEN MAINTENANCE IS
COMPLETE.
1. Maintain a three-fourths full reservoir using high grade non-foaming hydraulic oil.
(See page 5.)
2. Avoid getting contaminants in reservoir when filling.
3. Replace filter cartridge with new cartridge at least twice a year and more often if
necessary. (If installed, filter condition gauge has red zone indicating when
cartridge needs changing.)
4. Clean hydraulic quick disconnects before taking apart or connecting.
5. Protect hydraulic quick disconnects while in use and after taking apart with oily
rag or other suitable protection.
6. Auger bearing requires periodic greasing every 15 hours of use and more
frequent greasing during periods of greater use.
7. Greasing spinner hinge rod at support pivot points is suggested.
8. Hosing down and cleaning spreader after each use, and repainting or oiling after
each season will greatly prolong spreader life. To open bottom door and top cover,
disconnect hydraulic safety interlock and pivot around to end of spreader.
9. Spreader trough should be completely emptied after each use during severe cold
weather to prevent material from freezing around auger.
