Spreader Bar Assembly blades with the brass insert, and
the two edges at the opposite end of both Spreader Bar
Assembly blades without the brass insert.
7. Orient Spreader Bar Assemblies so the ends with brass
inserts face the Right Hand Frame Angle (1).

using a 1/4-20 Eye Bolt (14) and Washer (13) on the end
with the brass insert, and a 1/4" Eye Screw (15) and Washer
(13) on the other end.
9. Repeat Step 8 to install the rear Spreader Bar Assembly.
10. Tighten Eye Bolts and Eye Screws until snug, then back off
about 1/2 turn.The Spreader Bars should move up and down
freely in the oblong holes.
11. Attach four Coil Springs (6) from the Spreader Bar Eye Bolts
to the Stabilizer Tube Eye Bolts on each side of the frame as
shown at right.
12. Attach the Strap with Bolt Snaps (7; not shown) to the Eye
Bolts on the top of the frame.

for Mortar Spreading Application
1. Remove Grout Float Pads. (Store Wing Nuts on the float
studs.)
2. Turn Superspreader Frame over and open forward Spreader
Bar Assembly (5).
3. Orient two matching Trowel Blades (21) so that the ends have
notches against each Frame Angle.
4. Install trowel blades to the inside of the forward Spreader
Bar Assembly using six Weld Screws (16), six washers (18),
and six High Crown Acorn Nuts (17). Install these screws
from the inside out with Acorn Nuts on the outside. Leave nuts
loose until you turn the Superspreader Frame over and make
sure bottoms of both blades are flush with a flat surface.
5. Tighten Acorn Nuts (no need to hold screws on inside while
tightening).
