Release the ignition and throttle switches when the engine starts. “OFF” position: While in this position, with the engine running, the spreader feed chain and the spinner disk will not spin. Therefore, the spreader will not spread ice control material. H. After the engine starts, hold the throttle switch to the “IDLE” position to release the choke (hold switch for 1/2-1 seconds).

Quality since 1946 B. Keep the following rules in mind: • Decreasing engine RPM will decrease the amount of material coming to the spinner. • Increasing engine RPM will increase the amount of material coming to the spinner. • Size of the feed gate opening will increase or decrease the amount of material coming to the spinner. E. Check and maintain the correct oil level for both the engine crankcase and the gearbox. The engine crankcase is filled with 1 quart of SAE 5W-30 motor oil at the factory.
