Pendular Spreader PDV-PDHV models

ATTENTION!
Before getting off from the spreader and before every operation of
maintenance and regulation, set in action the parking brake, turn off the
engine, remove the ignition key from the dashboard and await the stop of all
the moving parts.
Various ways there are to spread the fertilizer in the field. One of the simplest methods is, as follows:
Position the spreader at the beginning of the field you intend to
fertilise, to a distance (D/2) that is the half of the working width
that is used (point 1);
Drive in the field, distributing the fertilizer on all the perimeter;
Stop the tractor at one distance (D) from the point 1, equivalent
to the set working width (point 2);
Begin the spreading by opening the exits and proceeding in line,
straight to point 3.
Turn the tractor and drive a D distance, equal to the working
width (point 4);
Repeat such procedure until all the plot will be covered.
