9 LOADING
Before loading the hopper, make sure the tractor is off and the P.T.O. shaft
disconnected.
We recommend that the whole loading operation is carried out by
the same operator. Lay down the spreader on the ground and then
load the hopper.
10 DISTRIBUTION
By means of a lever positioned near the third point
itispossibleto increaseor reducethequantityof fertilizer
to be spread. By pulling the lever down, the quantity is
increased, by pulling the lever up the quantityis reduced
till complete flow stop.
11 BLADEADJUSTMENT
According to the different specific weights of the
fertilizers to be spread, so as to get spreading uniformityto
the right as well as to the left, the blades can be fixed on
the spreading disc into 5 different positions marked by the
stops 1-2-3-4-5. The blades are usually fixed into the stop
nr.3.By fixing the blade towards the stop nr.1,the spreading
is increased to the left.By fixingthe blade towards the stop
nr.5, the spreading is increased to the right.
12 SPREADING PATTERNS
By simply changing the position of the lower lever, it is
possible to spread exclusively to the right or to the left of
the tractor driver. The lever has 3 holes: a uniform full-
width spreading pattern is obtained by fixing the lever into
the central hole, and a localized spreading pattern (to the
left as well as to the right) is obtained by fixing the lever
into the other two holes.
