Meyer Manufacturing Corporation - 30 - PB-SXI
NOTE: Check and be sure that the rear end gate is completely closed before loading. This gate must be closed
during loading to prevent packing of material into the beaters and to help prevent leakage during
transport.
NOTE: Maximum Gross Weight is the lesser value between the implement or tires.
NOTE: Overloading can have detrimental effects on the integrity of the spreader and its safe use. Some materials
such as lime sludge may not be able to be filled to struck level. Overloading will void warranty and
increase risk to the operator's safety. Always be aware of your gross weight.
Drive alongside the loading vehicle. Fill the spreader evenly to properly distribute the load while loading. When dumping
into the box with an end-loader, center the bucket just forward of the axle to properly distribute the load while loading.
A hydraulic lid is available to aid in the containment of liquids.
7.2 UNLOADING

** Struck capacity, heaped loads significantly increase weight.
Make certain all personnel are clear of the spreader and the rotating
spinners before applying power. Failure to heed may result in serious
personal injury or death.
The unloading process described is to be performed by the operator
alone. This will eliminate unexpected “start-ups” and minimize other
hazards that could result by more than one person in control.
Shutoff and lockout power before performing machine service,
adjusting, maintaining, or clearing an obstruction from this machine.
Refer to section 5.3 SHUTOFF & LOCKOUT POWER.
