Page 20: Transporting
TRANSPORTING TRANSPORT LIGHTING & REFLECTORS Transport lighting with a 7-pin plug is standard equipment on all Top Shot Models. The lighting system is to be connected to the 7-pin power receptacle (per SAEJ560B) on your tractor. If your tractor is not equipped with the proper receptacle, see your tractor dealer for details.
Page 21: Preparing For Operation
PREPARING FOR OPERATION 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. If theTop Shot is going to be operated in freezing temperatures, review and comply with recommendations in the Operation Chapter under the Winter Operation section.
Page 22 PREPARING FOR OPERATION The Top Shot is equipped with a constant velocity telescoping PTO drive shaft. This constant velocity capability results in a smooth, quiet running drive line without power fluctuation. The Top Shot can only be properly hooked-up to a tractor which has PTO and hitch dimensions conforming to ASAE Standard S203.
Page 23: Operation
OPERATION EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN In case a foreign object becomes lodged in the expeller or auger area, disengage the PTO. Stop the tractor engine, remove ignition key, and allow all mechanisms to stop before cleaning or working on the machine. If an object is lodged inside the tank, block-up the discharge gate and raise the conveyor auger before attempting to remove the object.
Page 24 OPERATION APPLICATION RATE The side discharge style Top Shot features a hydraulically operated discharge gate to control the material flow out of the tank and into the expeller. Several factors influence the rate of discharge and the spread pattern. These factors include: ground speed, type or consistency of discharge material, PTO RPM, and discharge gate opening.
Page 25 OPERATION UNLOADING & SPREADING Packed Material To unload and spread packed material and prevent unnecessary stress on the drive line components, observe the following guidelines: 1. Make sure the auger is completely lowered. 2. Engage the tractor PTO at as low an RPM as possible. Then, slowly bring the PTO up to the rated RPM.
Page 26 OPERATION DRIVE CHAIN TOLERANCES Drive chains must be kept in adjustment within the following tolerances: Jackshaft Chain Spring Length - 9 3/4″ to 10 1/4″ Auger Chain Spring Length - 13 1/2″ to 14″ Expeller Drive Chain Deflection - 1/2″ to 3/4″ AUGER &...
Page 27 OPERATION CONTROLS & SAFETY EQUIPMENT Top Shots are provided with several features for operator safety and convenience. Guards & Shields Whenever possible and without affecting the operation of the Top Shot, guards, shields and/or hinged shields have been used on this equipment to protect potentially hazardous areas.
Page 28 OPERATION Jack A jack is furnished with the Top Shot to support the machine when the tractor is disconnected and to adjust the hitch clevis to the tractor drawbar for hookup. The jack should never be used to support a loaded Top Shot. When the jack is not being used to support the Top Shot, it should be relocated...
Page 29: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENTS DRIVE CHAIN IDLERS Expeller Drive Chain Idler The expeller drive chain is tensioned with an adjustable sprocket idler. The chain is properly tensioned when the chain can be deflected 1/2″ to 3/4″ (13 to 19 mm) with hand pressure. NOTE: If an idler fails to maintain proper tension, replace the worn chain.
Page 30 ADJUSTMENTS FRONT & REAR AUGER SLIDES The front and rear auger slide assemblies are retained by adjustment plates with diagonal slots. To adjust, loosen retaining hardware and drive the plates downward with a hammer until the slide assembly is snug against the tank, then retighten the retaining hardware. Grease the slide assembly to ensure a leak-free seal.
Page 31: Service
SERVICE EXPELLER Periodically inspect the expeller teeth for wear or damage. Damaged, broken, or missing expeller teeth will cause excessive machine vibration. Consult with your local H&S dealer for additional ordering information. AUGER & EXPELLER SPEED OPTIONS The expeller input drive sprocket can be changed by raising the auger and then removing the indicated sprocket which is retained by a snap ring and set screws.
Page 32 SERVICE TIRES & WHEELS Check the tire pressure after every 10 hours of operation. Tires should be inflated to the appropriate pressure listed in the table. Tire Pressure 21.5L x 16.1 – 18 Ply 445/65R22.5 49x19x20 700/50x22.5 Wheel lug torque should be checked after every 50 hours of operation and tightened to the appropriate torque.
Page 33: Optional Equipment
OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT NOTE: The optional features & accessories listed in this chapter are shipped with separate instruction for installation, as applicable. AUGER SPEED OPTIONS Several different drive sprockets are available to change auger speeds to various spreading needs. Sprockets are available as service parts. EXPELLER SPEED OPTIONS Several different drive sprockets are available to change expeller speeds to various spreading needs.
Page 34: Lubrication Guide
LUBRICATION GREASING There are numerous grease fittings on the Top Shot that must be lubricated properly and often with a high-quality grease. Replace any missing or plugged grease fittings. Become familiar with all lubrication points and establish a routine to ensure complete lubrication of the Top Shot. Wipe dirt from the fittings before greasing to prevent the dirt from being forced into the bearing or pivot.
Page 35 LUBRICATION DRIVE CHAINS The drive chains are lubricated by a automatic chain oiler using 10W-30 oil. Any time that the discharge door is raised, a specified amount of oil is sent to the brushes on each of the chains. The oiler is adjust- able to set the amount that is being discharged.
