Preparing For Operation - H&S 5220 Operation Manual

PREPARING Top Shot
Properly lubricate the Top Shot, check automatic oiler level and fill if necessary before operating. Refer
to Lubrication Section of this Operator's Manual for locations.
Before loading material, adjust the hitch clevis to your tractor in order to obtain a level or forward position
of the Top Shot tank. The hitch clevis mounting plate has several sets of mounting holes on the Manure
Spreader to level the Top Shot for proper material delivery to the expeller. If additional positioning is
required, turn the clevis assembly upside-down to obtain additional adjustment. If the Top Shot is going to
be operated in freezing temperatures, review and comply with recommendations in the Operation Chapter
under the Winter Operation section.
Proper operation of a loaded Top Shot requires a tractor with sufficient horsepower to run the PTO and
proper size to counterbalance the weight of a loaded Top Shot.
