[. . . ] The rotary agitator is easily installed or removed. Note the clockwise rotation & sweep. Place felt washer around spinner shaft before inserting agitator. OIL BEARINGS AND ALL MOVING PARTS Make certain the spreader is running freely! Now You are Ready to Put Material in the Hopper · Make certain the rate gate is in closed position. [. . . ] The hand cast method of seeding was a limited factor in growing field crops that were hand seeded. Mechanized casting came into being in 1868 when Samuel Speicher invented the Hand Crank "Cyclone" Seeder. The seed sower was a breakthrough in field seeding. It was hailed as a major advancement in agricultural implements. Paul Speicher put the hand crank seeder on wheels in 1955. This development ushered in a new era in spreading and spreading products. New products and product forms adapted to broadcast spreading were developed. In 1988 a new dimension was added to broadcast spreading SPREAD PATTERN CONTROL - a dead center spread pattern equalizer. The following is a description of Mulch-n-More 288 Thunderbird series operating instructions. . . All units come standard with a regular spinner blade for spreading seed, fertilizer, granular chemical products and other lower rate granular products. 1. The 288 Thunderbird spreaders have a standard "Spyker" 1-9 spreader setting knob located on the front (material distribution side) of the spreader. Simply dial the setting and you're ready to spread. Even better, choose a setting and calibrate using the optional `calibration tray' and calibration instructions included with your spreader. All 288 Thunderbird spreaders have controls on the handle. The lever on the right side is the gate open and shut control. The lever on the left side of the handle is called the "Accuway Control". This lever controls the spread pattern of the product. To operate the "Accuway Control" push the left control handle all of the way forward prior to spreading the product. As you spread, if the spread pattern is skewing or flowing heavy to one side, slowly pull back on the left lever (VERY SLOWLY). As you pull the lever back towards you, you will begin to see the spread pattern change or go to center. When you see the pattern you wish to have, stop pulling the lever. You are set and no further adjustments are needed for the product you are spreading. [. . . ] Put the "spring pin" in the lower hole on the shaft (for the Mulch Basket) and clip the spring onto the shaft using the hook. The "spring pin" holds the spinner blade in place and stops the collar from moving upwards so that the shaft will not separate. Reverse instructions for replacing the regular spinner blade. The only difference would be that you must pin the regular blade using the upper hole on the spinner shaft. [. . . ]
