TRUCKSTER ELECTRIC
SPREADER
SPREADER MOUNTING
The LESCO Truckster Mount Electric Spreader is designed to be mounted to the rear of any turf maintenance
vehicle with a 12-volt electrical system. The vehicle could range from a golf cart to a pickup truck. For this
reason specific mounting instructions cannot be given.
The spreader should be mounted at the center rear of the vehicle so that the impeller is 12 to 18 inches from
the ground. This is important to obtain the proper spreading pattern. The mounting is accomplished by drilling
and bolting through the holes in the mounting plates and the U-frame behind the hopper. The furnished
1/4-20 x 2 inch bolts, lockwashers and nuts should be used. In some cases, depending on the vehicle, your
mechanic may wish to fabricate mounting brackets.
PUSH-PULL SWITCH
This switch should be mounted on the instrument panel or in a position convenient to the driver.
WIRING
With a negative ground system, connect the black (or yellow) motor wire to a good ground point on the
vehicles frame. Run the red (or green) motor wire to the push-pull switch, cut it to length and attach it to one
terminal. Attach the remaining red (or green) wire to the other switch terminal and then to the plus terminal of
the vehicle's 12-volt battery. The motor wiring is provided with a disconnect plug so that the spreader can be
taken off the vehicle and the wiring left intact. Check for proper rotation of the impeller by pulling the push-pull
switch "on" to start the impeller. When viewed from the top of the spreader, the impeller should rotate in a
counterclockwise directions. If the rotation is incorrect, shut-off the switch and reverse the wiring.
CONTROL CABLE
The control cable is used to open and close the spreader. It should be brought to a position within easy reach
of the driver.
OPERATION
PROPER VEHICLE SPEED IS 3 M.P.H.
Adjust the spreader setting rate as recommended by the manufacturer of the product to be applied. At a
speed of 3 m.p.h., the product will be distributed in a spread width of 8 to 12 feet. To spread material, pull the
push-pull switch "on" to start the impeller when the vehicle reaches the area to be treated, then use the
control cable to open the spreader. When you reach the end of the area to be treated, use the control cable
again to close the spreader. Then, with the spreader closed, turn around and then open the spreader again
and make a pass parallel to and 8 feet away from the first. If you keep the passes 8 feet apart, the spreader
patterns will overlap at the sides wheel they thin out and you will achieve even distribution. Reminder to close
the spreader when you stop or turn the vehicle Also push into on the push-pull switch to stop the impeller if
you stop or when traveling from one area to another.
MAINTENANCE
The spreader should be emptied and thoroughly cleaned after each use. Cover the motor and if possible
clean the spreader hopper and working parts with a high pressure water spray. Do not spray water
directly on the motor. The motor should be cleaned by blowing it off with an air hose (motor is not
waterproof.) The control cable is attached to the latch arm. Oil the latch-arm pivots after each use.
