Frequently asked questions

How do I adjust the spread pattern of the spreader?

You can adjust the spread pattern by using the adjustable shields and changing the engine RPM, gate position, and shield settings.

What is the recommended RPM for starting the electric clutch?

It's recommended to engage the electric clutch at the lowest possible RPM without stopping the engine to prevent premature spinner chain failure and chain tension loss.

How often should I grease the spreader bearings?

Grease the idler bearings on the Idler Shaft, flanged bearings on the Drag Shaft, and spinner shaft bearings every 10 hours of operation. Grease the input shaft bearing on the Gear Case every 50 hours of operation.

How do I adjust the conveyor chain slack?

To check the tension, measure the distance between the end of the rear rail and the point where the chain contacts the lower flange on the rail. The correct distance for adjustment is 26" to 30".

What should I do if the spinner drive motor stalls?

Press the OFF side of the ON/OFF switch to shut off the power to the spinner drive motor. Turn off the vehicle ignition and remove the key from the ignition switch. Inspect the hopper and the spinner drive to determine the cause of the obstruction. Correct the problem and test to make sure everything is clear, then restart the spinner drive motor.
