    ABI Classic Spreader Setup Guide Operational Safety Rules- Please exercise caution at all times when setting up, operating, or performing maintenance on the Classic Spreader. Remember, any piece of equipment like the Classic Spreader can cause injury/damage if operated improperly or if the user does not understand how to operate the equipment.

  • Page 5 This eliminates slipping and binding of the moving parts and reduces wear and tear and breakage to the chains, sprockets & gears. But that is not all! The hubs on the ABI manure spreaders have a ratcheting override when moving in reverse or taking sharp corners. This allows the wheels to move independently when taking sharp corners or moving in reverse even while engaged.
  • Page 6 12 gauge COR-TEN steel. This is thicker gauge steel than any other spreader, in this class, that we know of. ABI has chosen not to use galvanized steel as it is toxic to weld; therefore most competitors that use galvanized steel have resorted to bolt together construction.

  • Page 9 ABI Classic Spreader Setup Guide Operating Levers: The operating levers engage the apron chain as well as the beater bars. The operation lever labeled #1 is used to engage and disengage the apron chain. There are 4 speeds to choose from when engaging the apron chain for use.
  • Page 10 ABI Classic Spreader Setup Guide Operating Lever Rod adjustments: Both operating levers are attached to a rod used to engage parts of the spreader. These rods may need to have the play taken out over time. To remove this play from the rods put the levers in the top or disengaged position.
  • Page 11 ABI Classic Spreader Setup Guide Optional Feature: End Gate: The optional end gate is used to prevent manure from spilling out during filling or transportation, and to help further deflect material from the operator during spreading. The end gate should never be down when spreader is in use.

    When greasing the hubs for the ABI Classic Ground Drive Spreader use caution to make sure you do not over grease the hubs. You will want to put about 2-3 full pumps of grease into each hub using a manual grease gun every 30-35 loads.
  • Page 13 Every 30 -50 loads you may want to clean off the paws on the sprockets located on the right side of the spreader from the back of your ABI Spreader. Grease from the hub may gather on the paws and will need to be cleaned to prevent damage to the paws.
