Be certain to disconnect all sources of power before servicing. Keep pant cuffs and loose clothing away
from all chains and drives as well as the other moving parts. Keep off the equipment when in use, and
keep all shields in place. Do not attempt to clean, grease or lubricate while the machine is running.
Never allow riders in or on the machine.
DRIVELINE PROTECTION TORQUE LIMITER DISCONNECT CLUTCH
The driveline is protected by a Torque Limiter Disconnect Clutch located in the PTO driveline before the
gearbox of the spreader. Disconnect of the clutch during operation is normally due to large frozen chunks
of manure, foreign objects (rocks, chunks of wood etc.) in the manure, running the spreader push gate
too fast when unloading long straw and pen-packed material, or STARTING THE SPREADER PTO TOO
QUICKLY WITH HIGH TRACTOR RPM. Always determine the reason for the disconnect and eliminate
the problem before re-engaging the PTO.
BEATER
When replacing the beater paddles (Horizontal Beater Assembly), the sharp edges of the teeth must lead
in the direction of beater travel. On the right half of the beater the teeth must point to the right side of the
spreader. On the left half of the beater the teeth must point to the left side of the spreader. Always use
H&S special grade 5 bolts, washers, and nuts when replacing tips and torque to 60 foot lbs.
