BRIEF DESCRIPTION
The DS3100CB RINK disc spreader is meant exclusively for spreading fine-grained, loose
grit such as sand, trickle, granules or the like. The electro-hydraulically controlled
DS3100CB RINK disc spreader is powered by its own oil supply via the PTO shaft and is
equipped with two different spreaders. The disc spreader ejects material wide to the rear of
the machine. With the swivelling and tilting cross-conveyor belt, the spreading material can
be deposited selectively or used to load other machines. The spreading material is conveyed
by a conveyor belt to the spreader. Using a gate in front of each spreader, will prevent
uncontrolled trickling out of the litter material. The spreader is driven by a transmission with
hydraulic motor for a conveyor belt and a hydraulic motor for the spreading disc and cross
conveyor belt. The speed of the hydraulic motors for the conveyor belt, the cross conveyor
belt and the spreading disc, as well as the pivoting and tilting of the cross conveyor belt are
infinitely adjustable via the control panel. The spreading material can therefore be precisely
metered. The spread width or spread rate can be determined by driving speed, spreading
plate and conveyor belt speed.

INITIAL OPERATION
- Tighten the wheel nuts.
- Check wheel hub clearance and adjust if necessary.
- Check the tyre pressure.
- Check lighting system #. (see page 26)
Check these points again after the first drive under load!

SERVICE
Attaching and detaching
- Coupling (1) a towing vehicle. To do this, loosen the screws of the coupling (1), adjust to
the correct height and tighten the screws. (See page 1)
- Fully crank up the jockey wheel (2), then loosen the jockey wheel clamp and pull the
jockey wheel up as far as possible and clamp. (See page 1)
- Couple DS3100CB RINK disc spreader to towing vehicle.
- Check PTO shaft (3) for length, shorten if necessary and place on the tractor PTO shaft.
Secure against the attached chain against twisting. (See page 1)
- Connect the power (4) to the operating power of the towing vehicle. The indicator light
(green) lights up when engaging the POWER switch on the control panel.
(see Fig. 1 and page 10 - Fig. 2)
- Attach bracket (5) for the control panel in a suitable position on the towing vehicle (see
Fig. 1).
- When using a hydraulic brake axle # (see page 27 - Fig. 13), connect the brake line
plug to the corresponding control unit circuit of the towing vehicle and open the ball
valve. The brake is applied when operating the control unit on the towing vehicle. If the
machine is shut down while the brake is applied, the ball valve of the brake line must be
closed before disconnecting the plug.
- For the lighting system # (see page 26 - Fig. 12). Attach the seven-pin plug of the
lighting system to the towing vehicle.

Before each use
- Check the RINK DS700CB disc spreader for any externally visible damage and repair, if
applicable.
- Check the tyre pressure.
- Check the running track of the conveyor belt; readjust if necessary, as the conveyor belt
must not touch the side (see pages 23 and 24).
- Check lighting system #.
Loading
- Note the desired maximum ground pressure.
- When loading observe the permissible total weight.
Starting
- The power take-off may only be engaged when the motor is not running, as switching on
the PTO shaft under load can cause the gear-pump connecting pinion to break.
- To enable optimum operation, the PTO speed should be about 350 to 400 1/min.
- The oil temperature should be around 25oC when starting work; if necessary, warm up
the hydraulic system.
- Before starting work, check the oil level on the hydraulic tank (middle of inspection
glass). The hydraulic system is filled with Plantosyn 3268 ECO hydraulic oil at the
factory. Too little oil can damage or destroy the hydraulic pump.
A too low PTO speed or too low oil temperature, will affect the spreading
power.
