this position. The power switch "OFF" position
operates as emergency stop when required.
NOTE: The truck ignition must be ON to start the
spreader.
NOTE: If the truck ignition is turned OFF while the
spreader is running, the motor will stop.

BLAST/Maximum Speed
1. Press and hold the power switch in the
"START/BLAST" position as long as maximum
speed is needed.
2. Release the power switch when maximum speed
is no longer needed. The switch automatically
returns to the "ON" position and the speed shown
on the speed dial.
NOTE: When BLAST is used, the speed dial does
not move to the maximum speed setting, but
remains at the preset speed.
Spinner Indicator Lights
Two lights on the cab control indicate the status of the
motor:
• Left light is red and indicates a fault. When the red
(left) light is ON, the power is ON and the motor is
not running.
• Right light is green and indicates power is ON.
When the green (right) light is ON, there is power
to the control and the motor is running.
If there are problems while operating the spreader,
refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual.
NOTE: Always place the cover on the hopper to
prevent moisture buildup. Do not let the spreader
sit idle with material in the hopper for an extended
period of time. This can cause the material to
compact and reduce or stop the fl ow of material.
