LOADING
Determining Vehicle Payload
WARNING
Overloading could result in an accident or damage. Do not exceed GVWR or GAWR ratings as found on the driver-side door cornerpost of the vehicle. See Loading Section to determine maximum volumes of spreading material.
1. Install hopper spreader and optional equipment according to the instructions.
2. Install or attach any other equipment that will be on the vehicle while the hopper spreader will be in use (step bumper, trailer hitch, snowplows, etc.).
Fill gas tanks.
3. Obtain the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR),
Front Gross Axle Weight Rating (FGAWR) and
Rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (RGAWR) from the certi fi cation label located inside the driver-side door jam.
4. With the occupants in the truck for normal hopper spreader operation, weigh the vehicle to obtain gross vehicle weight (GVW).
5. Subtract the GVW from the GVWR to determine the available material payload.
6. Obtain the weight per cubic yard (lb/cu yd) of the desired material. Divide the weight into the payload to determine the maximum volume of material that can be carried.
7. Compare the maximum volume to determine the maximum height of the material in the hopper spreader.
8. Fill hopper with the material to the calculated height. Re-weigh vehicle with occupants and verify the GVW, Front Gross Axle Weight and
Rear Gross Axle Weight are less than the vehicle's ratings.
9. Repeat steps 7 and 8 for each type of material.
Refer to "Determining Vehicle Payload" worksheet for an example and worksheet.

Overtightening the roller chains may damage the bearings on the gear case and the engine.
Overtightening will also shorten the life of the roller chain and of the sprockets.
To increase engine chain tension: Loosen the four bolts that secure the engine mount to the engine base and pull the engine away from the clutch.
After correct tension is achieved, retighten the engine mount bolts.
To increase spinner belt tension: Loosen spinner bearing bolts, and pull shaft assembly away from the clutch. After correct tension is achieved, retighten the bearing bolts.
• Periodically check the conveyor chain tension. To check the tension, measure in 20"–24" from the rear edge of the sills. Push up on the chain with your hand. The conveyor chain should lift up 1"–3" off the conveyor chain guide or cross angles.

MAINTENANCE
• Use the two 5/8" x 6" take-up bolts at the front of the spreader to adjust the conveyor chain tension.
Loosen the locknuts before attempting to adjust the take-up bolts. Turn both sides equal amounts to ensure the tension is equally distributed across both sides of the conveyor chain.
• Always empty the spreader when it is not in use to prevent a frozen conveyor chain.
Electric Clutch
To minimize problems and extend the life of the electric clutch, do the following:
• At the end of each snow season, remove and clean the clutch.
• After cleaning the clutch, coat both mating surfaces of the clutch with oil or light grease.
• Remove oil and grease prior to using the clutch again.
Engine Service and Repair
Maintain the spreader engine according to the engine Owner's Manual that is shipped with the spreader. Engine warranty is covered by the engine manufacturer and is described in the engine manual.
If service or repair is needed, contact an authorized engine manufacturer service center. To serve you promptly, the service center will need the make, model, type and code number for your engine.
Your nearest service center is listed in the "Yellow
Pages" under "Engines, Gasoline" or "Gasoline
Engines."

MAINTENANCE
Hydraulic Hopper Spreaders
fl uid as required.
2. Periodically inspect the hoses and fi ttings for damage and possible leaks.
3. Change the hydraulic fl uid after the fi rst 50 hours of operation of a new unit.
4. Reservoir should be drained through the drain plug only, NOT through the suction outlet.
• Flush and re fi ll reservoir annually, or sooner if fl uid shows signs of break-down or contamination.
• The use of proper hydraulic fl uid in the system is critical to satisfactory performance. Only clean, new hydraulic fl uid, of the proper type and viscosity as recommended by the pump manufacturer, should be used.
• Keep all hydraulic fl uids in original containers. Use only clean measuring containers and funnels when pouring fl uids. Keep all containers closed when not in use.
To keep your spreader functioning properly, observe the following recommendations:
After each use:
• Wash out hopper and rinse off all external surfaces.
• Apply dielectric grease to all electrical connections to prevent corrosion.
• Lubricate all grease fi ttings. Use a good quality multi-purpose grease.
• Oil drive chain.
At the end of each season:
• Wash out hopper and all external surfaces.
• Apply dielectric grease to all electrical connections to prevent corrosion.
• Lubricate all grease fi ttings. Use a good quality multi-purpose grease.
• Oil or paint all bare metal surfaces.
• Oil drive chain.
