ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: DISCONNECT PTO DRIVE SHAFT AND HYDRAULIC HOSES (RELIEVE HYDRAULIC
PRESSURE) BEFORE CLEANING, ADJUSTING, LUBRICATING OR SERVICING THIS SPREADER. FAILURE
TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
SPINNER MATERIAL GUIDES
Regularly inspect and adjust two spinner material
guides located at both the LR and RR of the spreader.
Create a 1/8-3/8” clearance between material guides
and spinner teeth, figure 8. Maintain the recommended
clearances for maximum spreading pattern. Adjust to
prevent excessive manure build-up on material guide
inner surfaces. Adjust to prevent manure chunks or
foreign object lodging between material guides and
spinner teeth.
NOTE: Excessive lodging can cause premature spin
-
ner tooth wear, “bent-over” or even breakage.
Adjustments for the 1/8-3/8” clearance of each mate
-
rial guide to spinner tooth is made by tightening or
loosening the 1” nut on the material guide spring link-
age shaft assembly. Tighten nut to increase clearance
and loosen nut to decrease clearance between the
material guides. Once recommended clearance is ob-
tained turn spinners over by hand in the direction by
which the spreader would turn to check clearance. Do
not turn in the opposite direction as front chain
tightener damage could occur.
Effective w/08 serial numbers
If foreign objects enter the spinner area, the rear pivot
bolt on the shear arm is designed to shear. The
3/8-16x3” grade 5 replacement machine bolts are
stored under the rear shield. For replacement install
with 3/8” flat washer on top and on bottom of block
and tighten nylon locknut firmly.
