User manual SPYKER 20

[. . . ] Generous use of highest quality stainless steel. Accuway® spread control system is so innovative, it's patented. Is so successful it's used on all Spyker series 22 spreaders. A complicated problem is solved with a fundamental solution. [. . . ] The front side ramp The back side ramp 2 4 is used to shift the spread pattern to the right. is used to shift the spread pattern to the left. Route cable through clamp, then through swivel and then tighten the cable clamp bolt just enough to allow the cable to slide back and forth easily. Adjust sheath on cable so there is a 1/8" inch of control wire that is visible between the sheath and the edge of the rate gate linkage. Tighten the cable clamp bolt to secure the sheath. Tighten the screw on the cable fastener to anchor the wire, making sure that the rate gate linkage is pushed up against the dial. Trim excess wire behind cable fastener connector when finished (if necessary). 5. 8. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER USE ACCUWAY FRONT AND REAR RAMPS TO SPLIT THE PRODUCT FLOW. Use only the front side or the back side. With proper adjustment you should be able to achieve a balanced spread pattern. Now you are ready to balance the spread pattern. 2 1 Dial Setting Information The RATE DIAL has 9 numbers with 10 stops between each number, for accurate control of the spreading rate. It will automatically lock into the set position. LINE UP THE DIAL NUMBER WITH THE DIAL INDICATOR. A Note the relationship of the rate gate opening to the front side of the ramp. 12 B 3 Note the relationship of the rate gate opening to the back side of the ramp. 3 Read Before Using Accuway - What It Does Accuway Spread Pattern Equalizer Balances the spread pattern - Bulls Eye - Dead to the Center of the Spreader. Does not change the spread width. CAUTION: Never, never, never use the Accuway to split the product flow from the hopper to the spreading spinner.

VARIABLES include size, shape, design of spreading spinner. VARIABLES include product dispensing on spreading spinner. VARIABLES include condition of the spreader end the spreading spinner (product build up on the casting vanes, etc. ) VARIABLES include operator habits, fast or slow walking, tilting spreader forward or backward or operating spreader in a level attitude. 46 50 47 53 53 53 51 · · · · · 45 43 51 62 54 54 48 52 44 63 53 51 39 51 53 40 41 42 37 60 Accuway - How It Works A turn of the spread pattern shifter dial factors the variables. Shifts the product placement on the spreading spinner. This in turn balances the spread pattern heavier to right or heavier to left as required. Adjustment is very sensitive. (Note the very fine threads on the Equalizer adjustment stem. ) Viewed from the operators position To spread heavier left - move the ramp out. To spread heavier right - move the ramp in. NOTE: hole in hub for drive pin. 50 Series 66 34­22 Tire 34­22 Tire 53 71 55 55 55 71 53 39 58 11 59 4 Exploded View 12 18 13 Read Before Using Now You are Ready to Spread · Spread header strips at the ends of the area OPPOSITE the direction of spreading.

Now You are Ready to Put Material in the Hopper · · · · Make certain the rate gate is in closed position. As insurance against spill damage and spill loss, put material in the hopper with the spreader on a walk, driveway, paper, plastic, etc. The spreader will be easier to use if you only half-fill the hopper. Later on you can fill the hopper if you so choose. [. . . ]
