D. Position spinner assembly to the far left (drivers
side), tighten clamp. Determine placement of mate-
rial at various spinner and auger speeds by spread-
ing a small amount of material (Far left position
used to spread (3) three or (4) four lane highway
from right lane).
E. Position spinner assembly to the far right (pas-
senger side), tighten clamp. Determine placement
of material at various spinner and auger speeds
by spreading a small amount of material (Far right
position used to spread (4) four lane highway from
left lane).
F. Changing auger and spinner speeds on the valve
and placing spinner at various positions from left to
right will produce various spread patterns.
3. Miscellaneous
A. Valve setting changes may be made with truck
in motion.
B. By moving on/off lever to the off position, spin-
ner and auger may be stopped at the same time
without changing their valve settings.
C. Close cover plate flat over spreader trough and
lock in place for normal use of dump truck. Tailgate
may be opened from top or bottom.
D. When truck is used for extensive hauling the
spinner assembly should be removed.
E. If auger clogs, shut off spinner, open auger knob
valve and increase the engine speed. With the
engine at a higher speed, move the valve lever
from the on to the off positions rapidly; repeat as
needed. This action may unclog the auger. If this
action fails to free the auger, manual unclogging
will be required.
Recommended Maintenance
A. Warm up hydraulic system before using.
B. Keep the reservoir 3/4 full with high grade non-
foaming hydraulic oil.
C. Use precautions to keep contaminants from get-
ting in reservoir when filling.
D. Quick connects are a prime source of
contamination.
1. Clean quick connects before connecting or
disconnecting them.
2. Protect quick connects from contaminates at
all times.
E. Lubricate all bearings with suitable type grease
on a regular basis. More frequent lubrication is
recommended during periods of heavy use.
F. Lubricate the spinner hinge rod periodically.
G. Maintain the proper lubrication level in all gear-
boxes with SAE 90 gear lubricant.
H. When not in use, keep the spreader tray empty
to prevent freezing of material around auger in
extremely cold weather.
I. To extend the life of your spreader:
1. Hose down and clean after each use.
2. Repaint and/or oil after each season.
CAUTION
Before working in or around auger area, the valve
control lever must be in the off position. Disengage
PTO and shut off engine. Bottom tray may then be
opened for unclogging auger.
CAUTION
Position the valve on/off control lever in the off
position when the spreader is not in use or is
removed. In the event the valve on/off control
lever is left in the on position, a heat problem may
occur as the pump continues to pump oil to the
hydraulic valve. This could cause a hose to burst
spraying hot oil.
