How to fix heavy in the middle spread pattern with TYCROP ProPass 180 Top Dresser?

S

To address a heavy spread pattern in the middle when using your TYCROP Farm Equipment, try slowing down the Twin Spinner speed. This adjustment can help distribute the spread more towards the outside. You can also loosen the adjustment handle and slide the base of the twin spinner towards the ProPass by 3 to 6.5 mm (1/8 to 1/4 inch). After each adjustment, test the spread pattern and repeat until acceptable. If the issue persists, contact an authorized TYCROP distributor.
