OPERATING THE SPREADER
12
NOTE: The truck ignition must be on to start the
spreader.
NOTE: If the truck ignition is turned off while the
spreader is running, the motor will automatically
stop.
If there are problems while operating the spreader,
refer to the Troubleshooting section in this manual.
NOTE: Always place the vinyl cover over the
hopper to prevent moisture buildup. Do not let
the spreader sit idle with material in the hopper
for an extended period of time. This can cause
the material to compact and reduce or stop the
flow of material.
