Figure 6 shows the lower linkage assembled (for reference).
NOTE: The Lower Linkage must be attached to the restrictor
and the Linkage Plate Assembly before the Assembly is
attached to the frame. If the Linkage Plate Assembly is attached
to the Frame without the Lower Linkage, the Lower Linkage will
be very difficult to assemble and may cause the restrictor plate
to be broken during assembly

the Control Handle forward.

Final Assembly
A. Check And Tighten All Fasteners – Make sure the Gearbox
turns freely when pushing and pulling the unit.
B. Place the Screen in the hopper.
C. Install the Rain Cover on the hopper.
Operation
1. Before filling Hopper, ensure that the Restrictor Plate is fully
closed and the screen is in place.
2. Move and tighten the stop bolt to the desired setting.
3. Begin moving forward with the spreader.
4. Push the Control Handle forward to the stop bolt to open
Restrictor Plate and allow material to flow.
5. Before stopping, pull the Control Handle toward you to stop flow.
Maintenance
1. The Hopper and Spinner should be completely emptied and
cleaned before storage.
2. The Spreader should be washed and dried before storage.
3. Check that the Restrictor Plate and Linkage move freely. Clear
out any debris between the Restrictor Plate & the Hopper.
4. Check that the gearbox moves freely.
5. Check torque of all fasteners on a monthly basis.
Operation Notes
1. The spreader is designed to be operated at a brisk walking
pace (approx. 3mph). Walking slower or faster will alter the
distribution pattern & amount of the material, as will the moisture
content of the material & other environmental factors.
2. Grease should be applied to the gear box during seasonal
use, and prior to storing for the season.
WARNING
When filling hopper, make certain there are no large objects within the
material. Objects larger than the openings in the Screen may cause
the spreader to clog or even damage the drive system. Never leave
material in the hopper when not in use.
