NOTE:
The top of the hopper should be at least 30" above
the ground. The mounting holes shown in fi gures 3 and 4
will make the top of the hopper even with the vehicle's rear
rack. If exhaust blows against spreader, a higher mounting
position may help.
Position the spreader for adequate clearance if
the vehicle muffl er discharges straight toward
the rear.
IMPORTANT:
Before proceeding, determine if the mounting
brackets, when attached directly to the spreader frame, will
fi t onto the vehicle rack. If they need to be farther apart, use
the extension brackets in fi gure 4.
If you are NOT using extension brackets:
5. Attach the R.H. mounting bracket to the frame tube
using two 5/16" x 2" hex bolts and 5/16" nylock nuts as
shown in fi gure 3.
Tighten.
Repeat for the L.H. mounting
bracket.
