Page 15: Adjustment
ADJUSTMENT ADJUSTMENT It is not possible to have an exact spreading chart for equipment that makes use of the centrifugal principle, as the distributed quantity depends on the speed, on the radius of distribution, on the quality and humidity of the fertilizer, and on the roughness of the land. The fertilizer must always be stored and conserved adequately, so as to keep its physical characteristics unchanged. -
Page 16: Features & Option
FEATURES & OPTIONS The spreaders are equipped with a stainless steel disc with 4 adjustable vanes in 4 different positions. The vanes are bolted in place in the most used position. Spreader Disc The feeding of the disc is by gravity through an opening, located on the bottom of the hopper, inside of which a mix/agitator is applied, in order to prevent the fertilizer lumps formation. -

LUBRICATION & SERVICE Before every use and after every 8 hours of effective work, carry out the greasing of the machine. Make sure the greasing zerks are well cleaned from mud or other residuals before using them to inject lubricating grease. Lubricate with lithium grease the points, shown in the picture. -
