This spreader can be operated with 540 or 1000 RPM PTO. The hitch of the spreader is designed for a stan- dard tractor drawbar. Adjust the drawbar at 13 to 20 inches above the ground. Extend or shorten the drawbar so horizontal distance from end of tractor PTO shaft to center of the hitch pin hole is 16 inches. Secure the drawbar so that the hitch pin hole is located directly be- low the PTO drive line. See figure 1 for location of stan- dard measurements.

An improperly located hitch point may cause damage to the universal joints of the PTO drive shaft. Conforming

to the standard 16" drawbar & PTO relationship will en- sure that the PTO drive shaft will not become over-ex- tended.

DANGER: DO NOT OPERATE WITHOUT PTO GUARD ON SPREADER AND ON TRACTOR. MAINTAIN PTO DRIVE SHAFT GUARD TUBES IN OPERATING CONDITION. REPLACE THEM IF DAM- AGED AND NOT TURNING FREELY. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL IN- JURY OR DEATH.

WARNING: INSPECT REGULARLY THAT ALL CONNECTIONS AND BOLTS ARE TIGHT AND SECURE BEFORE OPERATING. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

Check for proper assembly and adjustment and make sure that all bolts are tightened. Securely retighten after a few hours of operation, as bolts can loosen up on new machinery. Check wheel lug nuts upon delivery and pe- riodically thereafter. Lug nuts should be tightened at 250-265 ft./lbs. of torque. Check the tires and inflate to the recommended pressure. See chart on page 55.

Inspect all adjustments on the spreader to be sure they are proper and to provide maximum performance. Lubri- cate the spreader completely if it is required and check the level of oil in the right rear corner gear box, and the gear grease in the expeller gear boxes.

WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE WITHOUT ALL SHIELDS, GUARDS AND COVERS INSTALLED. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PER- SONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

Fasten the spreader hitch to the tractor drawbar with a hitch pin that cannot bounce out. Use a 1-5/16” to 1-3/8” diameter hitch pin to pull spreader.

Remove the weight from the jack (jack is not to be used when spreader is loaded). Remove the jack from square mount tube and move to the transport storage tube on the left front side of the frame channel. Store in a horizontal position.

Before operation and after hitching the tractor to the spreader, connect the PTO drive shaft to the tractor. Slide spring loaded locking collar on PTO yoke rearward, and slide yoke onto the tractor PTO shaft. Release spring loaded collar. Be sure pins fall into groove of tractor PTO shaft and collar snaps forward into locking position.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE A STEEL HAMMER TO AID IN JOINING PTO PARTS.

Route hydraulic hoses through the hose support rod which is mounted to the hitch frame, figure 2. Connect the hydraulic hoses for the flow control rear gate to the tractor’s double acting valve hydraulic system. Move the tractor hydraulic controls to observe proper flow gate operation. If the controls operate the gate in opposite di- rections to what you expect, reverse the hydraulic hose connections at the tractor.
