WARNING: BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THIS SPREADER, READ AND STUDY ALL SAFETY INFORMATION. IN ADDITION, MAKE SURE THAT EVERY INDIVIDUAL WHO OPERATES OR WORKS WITH THE SPREADER, WHETHER FAMILY MEMBER OR EMPLOYEE, IS FAMILIAR WITH THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.

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.

DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT

The cutout clutch end of the PTO driveline must always be attached to the implement. The PTO driveline is equipped with a 1 3/8-6 spline on the implement half for attaching to the spreader. Remove the M17-hexagon bolt from the splined hub and slide the PTO onto the im- plement splined input shaft. Install the hexagon bolt through the hub being sure the bolt is falling into the groove on the splined shaft. Torque tight using a metric size M17 6-point socket and torque down to 75 ft. lbs. A

M17 6-POINT METRIC SOCKET MUST BE USED AS ROUNDING OF HEXAGON BOLT AND INACCU- RACY OF TORQUE SETTINGS COULD OCCUR.

The Meyer 7200 Industrial Series Spreader is equipped with a cutout type clutch on the implement half of the PTO driveline. The clutch is designed to limit the amount of torque transferred to the machine through the driveline. If excessive torque is developed the clutch will disengage. A loud ratcheting sound will be heard and the transfer of power to the machine will be disrupted. To reengage the machine simply shut down the PTO and allow the driveline to come to a stop. The PTO can then be reengaged to restart the spreader. The cutout clutch will either reengage upon shut down of the PTO or just before it comes to a complete stop.

The cutout clutch will disengage if start up is done in an abrupt or reckless manner. It also will disengage from foreign materials entering the spinner area of the spreader. It may also be possible to disengage the clutch by overloading or flooding the spinners with free flowing or liquid manure. If PTO clutch fails to reengage it will be necessary to remove the foreign object from the spreader before restarting. THERE IS NO FIELD

ADJUSTMENT ON THE CUTOUT CLUTCH.

DANGER: NEVER ENTER THE SPREADER BOX FOR ANY REASON WITHOUT FIRST STOPPING THE TRACTOR, SHUTTING THE TRACTOR OFF AND REMOVING THE KEY, SETTING THE PARKING BRAKE AND DISCONNECTING THE PTO DRIVELINE FROM THE TRACTOR. DO NOT ALLOW OTHERS IN THE BOX. ROTATING AUGERS CAN CRUSH AND DISMEMBER. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

If removal of the M-17 hexagon bolt is necessary, use the same M-17 6-point socket and loosen bolt one turn. Insert a ¼” drift punch in the hole on the opposite side of the hexagon bolt and tap to loosen the seated portion of the bolt from the splined hub. After bolt seat has been released, remove the bolt. If bolt is not unseated, dam- age to the hexagon bolt will occur.

Attach the shield safety chain to a suitable area on the spreader, preferably to the implement PTO steel shield.
