  • Page 19: Operation

    OPERATION EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN If a foreign object becomes lodged in the beater area and shears the shear bolt, disengage the PTO. Stop the tractor engine, remove the ignition key, and allow all mechanisms to stop before cleaning or working on the spreader. WARNING: Some photographs used in the following pages show guards or shields removed for clarification.
  • Page 20: Adjustments

    OPERATION SPREADING - WITH OPTIONAL HYDRAULIC DRIVE Engage tractor PTO shaft slowly. Beater is always in the engaged position, therefore, engaging tractor PTO will automatically start beater. Raise the hydraulic tailgate. Open hydraulic valve on tractor connected to speed control valve on Manure Spreader. Control speed of apron by turning speed control handle clockwise to increase speed, counter-clockwise to decrease speed.
  • Page 21 ADJUSTMENTS TWO SPEED CLUTCH If clutch control yoke becomes worn, it may be necessary to adjust the high speed clutch so it engages and disengages completely. Adjustment to compensate for this wear is made by sliding spring stop (A) on the control rod closer to the clutch engaging lever.
  • Page 22 ADJUSTMENTS APRON 1. Adjust the apron by loosening the mounting bolts on the chain slides on the outside of the frame. Mounting bolts shown in the drawing. 2. Tighten the adjusting bolts until the apron chain clears the underside of the axle by 1 inch. 3.

    SERVICE SHEAR BOLTS - Main Drive Shields Removed for Clarity The beater and the apron drive are protected by one shear bolt located on the front end of the side drive shaft (left side of spreader). Two spare shear bolts are provided. Shearing of the bolts is normally due to foreign objects in the manure or starting the spreader PTO too quickly with high tractor RPMs.
