Meyer Manufacturing Corporation - 32 - PB-SXI
7.3 SHEAR SPROCKET
The Meyer Spreader you have received has been equipped with a shear sprocket design on the main auger drive
sprockets. The augers are being driven by two allen head grade 8 bolts. The design is such that if the bolts are sheared
another set of holes to install new shear bolts will always be accessible without turning over the machine.
The plate sprocket is set up with the initial drive bolts being 9/16” diameter. Install the new bolts in the proper way as to
drive off of THE HEAD of the bolt, not on the nut.
7.4 FREEZING WEATHER OPERATION
Allow spreader to completely empty the last of its contents, shutoff and lockout power, and allow all movement to stop
before attempting to clean the spreader.
Scrape clean any remaining debris from inside the rear of the spreader.(Augers, Rear Gate, & Spinners). Make certain
that all personnel are clear of the spreader and the rotating spinners before slowly engaging the PTO. Operate the
spreader several minutes to clean manure scrapings and to allow any remaining manure and the spreader to freeze dry.
Hydraulically run the rear gate up and down to clean the gate slides. Park the spreader with the gate halfway open.
Before loading in freezing weather, make sure augers and spinners are free to rotate, and the rear gate moves freely up
and down.
