Wide-distribution Impeller-Gate Lever
The wide-distribution impeller-gate lever is the fourth
lever located at the top center of the control console
(Figure
11).
•
To broadcast a wide pattern of granular material,
pull the wide-distribution impeller-gate lever
rearward fully to the full open position.
•
To close the impeller gate, push the
wide-distribution impeller-gate lever forward full
closed position.
Narrow-distribution Impeller-Gate Lever
The narrow-distribution impeller-gate lever is the fifth
lever located at the top center of the control console
(Figure
11).
•
To broadcast a narrow pattern of granular material,
pull the narrow-distribution impeller-gate lever
rearward fully to the limited O
•
To close the impeller gate, push the
wide-distribution impeller-gate lever forward fully.
Note:
Only the wide-distribution impeller-gate
lever closes the impeller gate. Pushing the
wide-distribution impeller-gate lever forward also
resets the narrow-distribution impeller-gate lever
to the forward position.
Narrow-Spreader Distribution Flow-Rate Knob
The narrow-spreader distribution flow-rate knob is
located below the wide- and narrow-impeller-gate
levers
(Figure
11).
Use the narrow-spreader distribution-flow-rate knob to
control the discharge rate of granular material from the
hopper onto the impeller when the narrow-distribution
impeller-gate lever is in the O
•
Rotate the narrow-spreader distribution-flow-rate
knob clockwise to decrease the discharge rate of
granular material from the hopper.
•
Rotate the distribution flow-rate-knob
counterclockwise to increase the discharge rate of
granular material from the hopper.
Impeller On/Off Switch
The impeller On/Off switch is located below the
impeller-distribution flow-rate knob at the bottom of
the control console
(Figure
Use the impeller On/Off switch to run the electric
motor that drives the impeller.
•
Press the impeller On/Off switch up to run the
impeller.
•
Press the impeller On/Off switch down to stop the
impeller.

Impeller-speed Control
The impeller-speed control is located to the right of
the impeller On/Off switch at the bottom of the control
console
(Figure
11).
Use the impeller-speed control to adjust the rotational
speed of the impeller.
•
Rotate the impeller-speed control counterclockwise
to decrease the rotational speed of the impeller.
•
Rotate the impeller-speed control clockwise to
increase the impeller speed.
Drop-rate Cam and Linkage
The drop-rate cam and linkage are located at the front
of the machine and below the hopper on the spreader
(Figure
12).
1. Slot–maximum position
Use the drop-rate cam to set the maximum amount of
material to be dispensed through the impeller gate
and onto the impeller.
The slot in the cam, after setting 9 on the cam, allows
the impeller gate to be opened to the maximum
position. This setting can be used for dry sand, ice
melt, or other materials that are difficult to spread.
Note:
Use cam setting 9 may when you are cleaning
out the hopper.
