Set-Up & Assembly; Transporting - H&S 430W Operator's Manual

Note: Determine right and left side of spreader by viewing it from the rear. If instructions
or parts lists call for hardened bolts, refer to Cap Screw Torque Value page to identify.
PREPARING MANURE SPREADER
The Manure Spreader may be shipped without the wheels/tires installed.
1. Attach the wheels with tires, using the lug nuts furnished and torque the mounting hardware to
the appropriate torque. Wheel bolts should be tightened at 100 ft./lbs. of torque
2. Check the tires and inflate to the recommended pressure(295/75RX22.5 tires to 75 to 80 psi.).
3. Check for proper assembly and adjustment and make sure that all bolts are tightened.
4. Securely retighten after a few hours of operation, as bolts can loosen up on new machinery.
5. Lubricate the machine completely, check the oil level of the gearbox, fill if necessary.
REFLECTORS/SMV
When transporting on the highway, connect the spreader to
the tractor with a lighting power cord. The lighting system
is to be connected to the 7 pin power receptacle (per
SAEJ560B) on your tractor. If your tractor is not equipped
with the proper receptacle, see your tractor dealer for
details. Make sure lights are functioning properly. Regularly
clean the reflective tape at the rear of the spreader. There is
a holder provided for your SMV sign.
prohibited, use a slow-moving vehicle emblem. Never tow
the manure spreader on a public highway at a speed greater
than 20 m.p.h. (32 kph).
SAFETY CHAIN (Optional)
Follow state and local regulations regarding use of a safety chain and transport lighting when towing farm
equipment on public highways. A proper safety chain should be used to retain the safety connection
between the towing and towed machines, in the event of separation of the primary attaching system.
Check with local law enforcement agencies for your own particular regulations. Never tow the manure
spreader on a public highway at a speed greater than 20 m.p.h. (32 kph).
1. Chain is sufficiently slack to allow turns and movements of either the tractor or the manure spreader,
without placing tension on the chain.
2. Chain is of sufficient strength to hold the decoupled implement (and its load) and tow it to the
shoulder.
