SPREADER ASSEMBLYFig. 1 - Bolt the gearbox to the frame.Fig. 2 - Partially install pin into disc beforeassembling to gearbox shaft. Insertthe spinner disc onto the driven outputshaft, and align holes and drive in the rollpin "a", which is lower hole. Drive rollpin in until flush with bushing.Fig. 3 - Insert the roll pins into hole "b".Drive in the pins until the distance is equalon both sides of the shaft.Fig. 4 - Put control lever rods, for meteringgates to the inside of the frame before placinghopper onto the frame.2

SPREADER ASSEMBLYFig. 5 - Install metering gates to the sideof the hopper. Connect the control rodsto the metering gates. Center the hopperwith the output shaft.Fig. 6 - Bring the corresponding holes of thehopper and the frame in alignment, and installthe bolts from the inside toward the outside,tightening down on the outside with nuts andlock washers. During the final tightening of thehopper bolts to the frame,check for centering ofthe output shaft with the bottom of the hopper.Fig. 7 - After hopper is installed, attachagitator over output shaft. Check meteringgates, and adjust so they are equallysynchronized fully opened and closed.3

MAINTENANCELUBRICATION -DRIVESHAFT - The driveshaft must be lubricated before the spreader is put into use. After that,grease every 8 hours. It is also necessary, from time to time, to untelescope the driveshaft to cleanand re-grease tubings.GEARBOX - Grease every 40 hours.CLEANING AND STORAGE -- Wash hopper with water after each use.- Never let material buildup on shutters or in the hopper.- Check spreader for needed repairs before using again.SAFETY INFORMATION -Safety Tips:1. Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing when operating spreader.Loose clothing should not be worn, as it could get caught in the moving partsor controls of spreader.2. Spreader should be operated only by qualified personnel.3. When starting spreader, always maintain a safe distance from moving parts.4. Keep hands, feet, and clothing away from all moving parts.4

SAFETY INFORMATIONOPERATIONAL SAFETYIt is absolutely necessary to empty the hopper before lowering the spreader to theground.Guards and safety shields are for your protection. DO NOT operate equipmentunless they are in place.ALWAYS engage tractor PTO at engine idle.Disengage tractor PTO and shift into neutral before attempting to start engine.Read and observe all safety decals on the tractor and spreader.NEVER allow anyone, other than the operator, within 25' of machine while inoperation.DO NOT stop or start suddenly when going uphill or downhill. Avoid operationon steep slopes.Be alert for holes in terrain and other hidden hazards. ALWAYS drive slowly overrough ground.Reduce speed on slopes and in sharp turns to prevent tipping or loss of control. BEcareful when changing directions on slopes.Take all possible precautions when leaving tractor unattended: Disengage PTO,lower spreader, shift into neutral, set parking brake, stop engine, and remove keyfrom ignition.Front tractor weights or front tire ballast should be used to enhance front-end stabilityon small tractors.5

TO OPERATE SPREADERWARNINGNEVER put hands or hand held tools in spreader while PTO is engagedand gearbox is turning. Failure to follow warning can result in personalinjury and/or damage to the spreader.A) Make sure spreader is properly assembled and secure to 3-point hitch.B) Before using spreader, make sure that the spreading disc is in a horizontalposition, about 2 1/2 feet from the ground.C) Engage tractor PTO at engine idle.NOTE: Never engage PTO above engine idle.D) Place material to be spread in hopper.E) Set levers in position needed for your spreading application (See page 5for tables).6

SPREADING TABLESThe figures shown in the table, in particular the spreading quantities, have been establishedthrough appropriate practical testing. The figures are only general indications, because a lotof external elements can modify the spreading (the wind, the moisture of fertilizer, etc.).If the tractor is driven at a speed which differs from that shown from the table, it is necessaryto make the right proportions and you must remember that a constant opening and agreater forward speed with constant PTO regime, reduces the quantity of spread for hectar.THE SPREADING OPERATIONIn order to obtain a sufficiently uniform spreadingpattern on both sides, it is simply necessary to movethe main operating lever until the correct opening isreached. (Fig. 1)According to the specific weight of the fertilizer tobe spread, to obtain uniformity of spreading whetherto right or left, it is possible to arrange the distributingblades moving them to the appropriate notch 1-2-3 (Fig. 2).Normally the position of the blades should be asfollows:Blades (A) and (C) on notch no. 2Blades (B) and (D) on notch no. 3By moving all the blades to notch no. 1, there is anincrease of spread to the left of the driver.By moving them to notch no. 3, there is an increaseof spread to the right of the driver.Thus, the adjustment according to the fertilizers used,depends on experience in the use of the machine.7
