SAFETY REGULATIONS
➢The RINK Disk Spreader DS1600 isdesigned exclusively for spreading fine-grained, loose
grit such as sand, gravel, granulate or similar.
➢Any use beyond this is considered improper use. The manufacturer is not liable for any
damage resulting from this; the risk is borne solely by the user.
➢Intended use also includes compliance with the operating, maintenance and servicing
conditions prescribed by the manufacturer.
➢The RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 is built to the latest state of the art and is safe to operate;
however, the RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 may pose a risk to the life and limb of the user
and others if it is not used, maintained and repaired by persons who are familiar with it and
have been informed of the dangers.
➢Every person in charge of operating, maintaining and repairing the spreader during
operation must read and understand the operating instructions, in particular the chapter on
safety regulations.
➢Only use the manufacturer’s original spare parts for repairs.
➢In addition to the information contained in this manual, general safety and accident
prevention regulations must also be observed.
➢When using public roads, the respective regulations apply (German Road Traffic Licensing
Regulations (StVZO)).
➢The spreader may only be driven on public roads after registration has been completed.
Full TÜV (MOT) certificates and additional safety equipment required for this (lighting,
wheel chocks) are available on customer request.
➢It is not permitted to transport passengers!
➢It is prohibited to enter the loading ramp when the spreader is in operation. A notice to
this effect is affixed to the wheel cover on both sides of the RINK Disc Spreader DS1600.
This notice must always be clearly legible and must be replaced in the event of damage.
➢The user is obliged to inspect the RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 for visible damage and
defects before using it. Any changes to the RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 (including
operation), which may harm safety, must be rectified immediately. For safety reasons, it is
strictly forbidden to make any changes or additions to the RINK Disc Spreader DS1600
(except for changes/additions authorised by the manufacturer). In the event of
modifications being made to the RINK Disc Spreader DS1600, the CE marking currently
affixed to the machine shall become invalid and must be independently renewed by the
person who made the modifications.

SAFETY REGULATIONS
➢The permissible support load of the tractor must be observed.
➢Before departure, check the immediate vicinity and ensure sufficient visibility.
➢During operation, no one should be in the danger zone of the spreader, as there is a risk
of injury from rotating parts and flying foreign objects.
➢Make sure to dress appropriately. Wear safety shoes and long trousers. Long hair must be
tied up. Do not wear loose clothing. Use appropriate personal protective equipment in
accordance with applicable occupational health and safety regulations.
➢The RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 produces a noise of 74 dB (a) in the immediate vicinity
of the rotating discs.
➢Wear certified hearing protection when working with the machine.
➢Adjustment and repair work may only be carried out by authorised specialist personnel.
Always depressurise the hydraulic system before carrying out repair work. Regularly check
the hydraulic hoses and replace them if they are damaged or old. The hydraulic hoses must
comply with the technical requirements of the implement manufacturer.
Waste oil endangers the environment; please dispose of in
an environmentally friendly manner.

SHORT DESCRIPTION
The RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 is used for spreading fine-grained, loose grit such as sand,
gravel or similar. The spreading device of the disc spreader is driven by a gearbox with a
hydraulic motor for the conveyor belt and one hydraulic motor each for the spreading discs.
The speed of the hydraulic motors for the conveyor belt and the spreading discs is fully
adjustable via a flow regulator. The grit can thus be precisely metered. The spreading width
and spread rate can be determined by the travel speed, spreading disc speed and conveyor
belt speed.

FIRST START-UP
- Tighten wheel nuts.
- Check wheel hub play and adjust if necessary.
- Check tyre pressure.
- If the RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 is to be used on public roads, the registration plate
must be attached to the rear left-hand side on the mounting plate provided for this purpose
(only possible with permission to use and after registration has been completed).
- Check the lighting system.
Check these points again after the first loaded run!

OPERATION
Attachment and detachment
- Adjust the hitch (1) to the tractor. To do this, loosen the bolts of the hitch (1), adjust to the
correct height and retighten the bolts (see page 9 - Fig. 1).
- Hitch RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 to tractor.
- Connect hydraulic lines (3) and (4) to tractor as a closed oil circuit is required (see page 10
- Fig. 2).
- Securely attach the valve actuator (5) for the conveyor belt to the tractor using the holder
provided (see page 10 - Fig. 2).
- With external oil supply (see page 18)Place the slip-on pump on the tractor’s PTO shaft
attachment and secure it against twisting with the help of the attached torque support. The
PTO shaft may only be switched on at idle speed, as switching on the PTO shaft under
load can cause the gearbox-pump connecting pinion to break. For optimum operation, the
PTO shaft speed should be approx. 450 rpm, which corresponds to 25 l/min. The oil
temperature at the start of work should be approx. 25oC (sight glass on the oil tank), if
necessary let the hydraulic system warm-up. A too low PTO shaft speed or a too low oil
temperature will impair the spreading performance. Before beginning work, check the oil
level in the hydraulic tank (sight glass centre). The hydraulic system is filled with Plantosyn
3268 ECO hydraulic oil ex-works. Too little oil can damage or destroy the hydraulic pump.
Plug in the seven-pole connector of the lighting system on the tractor.
(see page 19 - Fig. 13).
- Crank up the support wheel (2) completely, then loosen the support wheel clamp and pull
the support wheel (2) up as far as possible and clamp it (see page 9 - Fig. 1).
Lay the hydraulic hoses so that they do not rub against the ground or the
tractor.
Detach in reverse order!
Depressurise the hydraulics on the tractor before detaching.

Before every drive
- Check RINK Disc Spreader DS1600 for externally visible damage, and repair the damage.
- Check tyre pressure.
- Check the belt track, and readjust if necessary, as the belt must not rub against the side
(see pages 16 and 17).
- Check the lighting system.
Loading
- Observe the desired maximum ground pressure.
- Observe the permissible total weight when loading.

SPREADING
When the hydraulics are switched on, the spreading unit is automatically activated. The
conveyor belt and the slider (6) are activated by actuating the valve (5), whereby the slider (6)
is activated first and then, with a small delay, the conveyor belt. Before starting work, preselect
slider position A-G (see page 11).
Operating elements
(1) Control for adjusting the conveyor belt speed
(2) Control for adjusting the spreading disc speed
(3) Return line
(4) Pressure line
(5) Valve actuation for conveyor belt and slider
Setting ON: Slider opens, conveyor belt starts with a delay
Setting O: Switches off the conveyor belt, slider remains open
Setting CLOSE GATE: The slider is closed as long as the switch remains activated
