5. FERTILIZER SPREADER USE
ATTENTION!
Before use, please check that gears are adequately greased (see paragraph
6.1).
ATTENTION!
During the use of the machine, please be sure that for a radius of 30 meters
there are not any person or animals. If somebody comes up, please stop
immediately the tractor engine.
Recommendations for a correct distribution
• Please test always the kg/ha that you wish to spread before starting to work.
• Do not insert the pto shaft when the tractor is in acceleration, because it will start the
pendulum spreading. Lower the engine revolutions at the minimum and after that speed up
gradually till obtaining a speed of 540 r.p.m.
• Open exits only when the right speed is achieved.
• Avoid to spread the fertilizer in windy days, in order to improve the uniformity of the
distribution.
5.1. ADJUSTMENTS
It is not possible to have an exact spreading chart for equipments that make use of the centrifugal
principle, given that the distributed quantity depends on the feed speed, on the radius of distribution,
on the quality and humidity of the fertilizer and on the roughness of the land.
The fertilizer must always be stored and conserved adequately, so as to keep its physical
characteristics unchanged.
It is necessary to set the speed of the pendular spreader, before starting the operation of distribution,
trying, in the possible limits, to keep it constant for all its duration.
The spreading charts contain the indicative information, in order to determine the quantity to spread
in the field; these must be completed by the experience and competence of the operator.
