Select an area for testing measuring at least 120 feet x 200 feet (37 m x 61 m), and with a slope of less than
two degrees�
All testing should be done when the wind velocity is less than 5 MPH (8�05 km)� If wind is present, testing
must be done with spreader traveling parallel (within ± 15 degrees) to the wind direction�
Do not allow loaded spreader to sit for more than one hour prior to testing�
At this stage of testing, drive the spreader over the collection trays in ONLY ONE DIRECTION�
Insert a plastic grid into each of the 23 collection trays� Position the blue collection tray in the center of the
spreader's path with the longest dimension of the tray parallel to the direction of travel. Position the first
left-hand and right-hand trays 10' (3m) from center, and all subsequent trays on 5' (1�5m) centers�
