GENERAL INFORMATION
The operator must read and understand the information in this
manual to ensure the correct service and operation of the machine
and avoid unnecessary risk of accidents and breakdowns.
SPREADING MATERIAL
ADJUSTING SPREAD QUANTITY
The spreading quantity is adjusted with the tension adjustment lever. Correct adjustment is
important. If the adjustment is too tight, unnecessary wear of the rubber belts or rotating
parts may occur. If the adjustment is too slack, distribution of material will be uneven.
STARTING TO SPREAD
Spreading of material starts as soon as the unit is rolled forwards or backwards.
MAINTENANCE
Important: All moveable parts must be greased regularly for the best performance. To extend
the durability of the machine, frequent and thorough cleaning is recommended. Set spring
tension to loosest setting for ease of cleaning the machine and use plenty of water when
cleaning to avoid material freezing on the roller or rubber belts.
Remember: Do not spray water directly into bearings or bearing housings. If the machine is
stored for a lengthy period of time, spray it with acid-free oil before use. Remove all foreign
material from the roller. Check and lubricate all chain and bearings regularly.
Maintenance of Wheel Clutch required: The Bauman 220 drop spreader is equipped with
clutches located in the wheels that drive the drum & agitator of the unit. These
clutches/bearings require periodic lubrication which involves removal of the wheels
IMPORTANT –Mark the wheels before removal! Wheels are directionally oriented & the unit
will not function if the wheels are reversed. To lubricate this unit:
•Remove plastic plug from wheel hub
•Remove bolt & wheel
•Apply lubrication to inner hub wheel bearings (white grease, spray lube, etc.)
•Replace wheel, retighten bolt & replace cap
It is important to properly maintain and service your spreader. Failure to comply
with the manufacturer’s suggested servicing procedures may result in premature
wear and may hinder the machine’s performance.

SAFETY
The Bauman Drop Spreader has been designed for single person operation only. The operator
should ensure that no one is close to the area where the machine is in use. Do not let others
ride or sit on the spreader.
The danger labels on Bauman Manufacturing equipment are for the safety of the operator as
well as pedestrians and bystanders. Read and obey warning and danger labels. Stay clear of
all moving parts and rotating shafts and ensure no one reaches into the hopper when it
spreader is in operation.
