moisture and harden up. When spreading sand mix, a 1:1 ratio for Sand/Salt mix is recommended to prevent the
material from freezing.

For a heavier pass, drive slower, or increase auger speed.

V-Maxx 9300 CONTROL OPERATION
t The Dual Variable Speed Control has dual finger-tip dials for maximum performance, digital system status with warning
protection and built-in vibrator switch.
t To start, press power switch on controller and spreader will accelerate to speed set on spinner and auger dials.
t To stop, press power switch on controller to off position.
t Speed of auger and spinner may be adjusted separately to get desired flow and spread distance from spreader.
t The Vibrator Switch is needed for dense material or to increase the flow to the auger. This eliminates bridging of material
in hopper.
t In case spreader becomes jammed, it will go into an auto-reverse program to free itself. Auger display will show (AR)
while trying to clear obstruction.
