WARNING: INSTALL A SMV EMBLEM ON REAR OF SPREADER FOR TRANSPORTING ON ROADWAYS AND KEEP THIS EMBLEM CLEAN AND BRIGHT. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERI- OUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

If you will travel on public roads and it is legal to do so, you must know all rules governing such operation. This will include lighting and brake requirements in addition to traffic rules. You may also be required to install a safety chain device on the spreader.

Check for traffic constantly. Be sure you can see that no one is attempting to pass you and that all traffic is suffi- ciently clear from you before making any turns.

OPTIONAL TRUCK MOUNT

SPREADERS

Depending on the make and model of the truck it may be necessary to install a light converter (MEYER PART #56-0028). Converter will allow signal lights and brake lights to operate according to DOT lighting standard. Call factory for more information.

USE OF SAFETY CHAIN

CAUTION: A SAFETY CHAIN MUST BE INSTALLED TO RETAIN THE CONNECTION BETWEEN TRACTOR (OR OTHER TOWING VEHICLE) AND SPREADER WHENEVER TRAVELING ON PUBLIC ROADS IN CASE THE HITCH CONNECTION WOULD SEPARATE. A SUGGESTED ATTACHMENT IS ILLUSTRATED ON FIGURE 3.

The chain must be strong enough to hold the weight of the loaded spreader (See table on page 9). If using a grab hook at the end(s) of the chain to secure the chain to itself, a hook latch must be installed.

The length of the safety chain is not to be any longer than necessary to turn without interference. If any chain links or attachment hardware are broken or stretched, repair before using. Store chain so it does not corrode or become damaged. Do not use this chain for other implements because the strength and length of the chain may not be adequate. Identify this chain for use on this particular spreader. Do not use the intermediate support as the attaching point.

FREEZING WEATHER OPERATION

Allow spreader to completely empty last of manure con- tents and disengage tractor PTO. Shut off tractor, re- move the ignition key and allow all movement to stop before attempting to clean the spreader.
