Free-Wheel Option
Your TBS7019T Spreader has a unique feature
which allows the spreader to be transported
over long distances, at greater speeds without
wear and tear on the gear case assembly. Re-
move #213 Hitch Pin Clip, next remove 1/4” x
1-5/8” Clevis Pin. “Free Wheel” option turns on-
ly the wheels and leaves the axle and the gear
case assembly at rest. See Figure 6.
REMEMBER: If you are traveling with a loaded
hopper at higher speeds, the spreader stands a
greater chance of becoming unstable and turn-
ing over. BE CAUTIOUS OF THE TERRAIN!
The more un-even the terrain is, the more you
need to lower your speed.
Maintenance
1. Before each use, check all nuts and bolts for
tightness.
2. Empty Hopper after each use. Do not store
spreader with material left in hopper.
3. Wash spreader thoroughly and wipe dry. The
key to years of trouble-free service is to keep
your unit clean and dry.
4. If rust should develop, sand lightly and then
paint area with enamel.
5. Lubricate all moving parts. Use a grease gun
to apply grease to the gearbox assembly.
6.
CAUTION: Use a reasonable amount of
grease. DO NOT pack gearbox full of
grease. Apply oil to spinner shaft (including
area where the shaft extends through hopper),
slide plate and where the spinner shaft and axle
extend through the gearbox.
Storage
1. Rinse inside of hopper and exterior of
spreader and allow to dry before storing.
2. Store in a clean, dry area.
