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 BEATER CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT It may be necessary to compensate for wear in the beater clutch and clutch control yoke. When properly adjusted the moveable jaw clutch should have one-quarter (1/4”) inch (distance C) between clutches when disengaged. To adjust, loosen jam nut (A) holding spring bracket. With beater disengaged (clean out position), tighten nut (B) against shifter lever bracket until the proper distance between clutch jaws is reached.
  • Page 23 ADJUSTMENTS UPPER BEATER Eye Bolt Adjuster The upper beater drive chain has a spring-loaded tightener. Tighten the eye bolt to increase the spring tension. Maintain a 1/16” gap between the spring coils for proper tension. If a 1/16” gap between the coils cannot be maintained, a chain link must be removed, or the chain replaced.
