GENERAL Torque INFORMA TION Chart Regular Capacity When tightening fasteners, refer to Table I, See Figure 1 to determine the correct amount of Torque Chart, for the recommended fastener torque values. spreading material for the regular capacity hopper spreader . Table 1: Torque Chart Figure 1 High Capacity See Figure 2 to detennine the correct amount of spreading material for the high capacity hopper Material Weights spreader.
GENERAL Determining Vehicle INFORMA TION 4. With the occupants in truck for nonnal Payload hopper spreader operation, weigh vehicle to obtain gross vehicle weight (GVW). 5 Subtract the GVW from the GVWR to detennine the available payload to carry the material. 6. Obtain the weight per cubic yard (lb./cu. yd.) of the desired material from Table 2, page 4. Divide the weight into the payload to detemline the maximum volume of material that can be carried. Use Table 3 to record information. I.

OPERA TION Cab Control 8 When the engine starts, release the ignition Identification switch. N OTE: If the engine does not start after 10 secondsof cranking, turn both vehicle and spreader ignition switches to OFF and see the Briggs & Stratton Owner's Manual that is shipped with the spreader. 9. After the engine starts, move the throttle switch to IDLE and hold for 1/2 -1 second to release the choke. 10. To control the engine speed: .Increase: hold the throttle switch at CHOKFlFAST . Figure 3 .
~ OPERA TION Clutch .Start Operation Baffle Adjustment the engine. Spread pattern and the amount of material dispensed depends on engine RPM, gate position, and baffle settings. 2. Adjust the speed to slightly above idle. 3. Move the clutch switch to ON. .Decreasing RPM and/or gate-opening will decrease the amount of material coming to the spinner. .Increasing RPM and/or gate-opening will increase the amount of material coming to the spinner. See Figure 4, and Figures 5 and 6 on the next 4.
OPERA TION These figures are as viewed from the top of the spinner looking down. Figure 5 Form No.
MAINTENANCE .Maintain spinner shaft-to-gear case roller chain tension. Correct chain tension allows 5/16" deflection midway between the sprockets. See Figure 7. To increase chain tension: loosen the bearing mounting hardware and pull the spinner shaft away from the gear case. Make sure the spinner shaft is vertical and the sprockets are lined up before re-tightening the fasteners. Oil this chain after each use, and at the end of the season.
MAINTENANCE Periodically check the conveyor chain tension. To check the tension, measure in 201'-24" from the rear edge of the sills. Push up on the chain with your hand. The conveyor chain should lift 1"-3" off the conveyor chain guide or cross angles. See Figure 9. Electric Clutch To minimize problems and extend the life of the electric clutch, do the following: .At the end of each snow season,remove and clean the clutch. .
