INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Recommended sequence of installation is:
1.
Mounting of PTO and pump drive.
2.
Installation of radar (if applicable)
3.
Mounting of spreader.
4.
Installation of controller and encoder (if applicable)
5.
Installation of hydraulic hose and electrical wiring.
6.
Installation of optional parts.
7.
Filling of hydraulic tanks and lubrication.
8.
Checking for leaks and proper functioning.
PUMP AND PTO REQUIREMENTS:
Hydraulic Requirements
Maximum Pressure: 3100 PSI
Flow:
40 GPM (Gallons per Minute)
Sizing Data Required:
Since the amount of material per acre to be spread depends upon the match between pump size, pump
speed (which depends upon engine speed and PTO percent), conveyor delivery rate and feedgate
opening, it is essential that a correct match between these factors be made. This matching is called
“sizing.”
1.
Correct sizing requires accurate and complete information.
A.
Engine governed operating speed.
B.
Transmission make and model.
C.
PTO Data
1. Make and Model of PTO.
2. PTO percentage of Engine RPM.
3.
Direction of PTO Rotation (Engine Direction or Opposite of Engine Direction).
NOTE: It may be necessary to select a higher percentage PTO or a larger pump than standard
with lower speed engines, such as diesels and heavy duty gasoline engines. Consult your dealer
in such cases. It is desirable to install a tachometer in order to maintain proper engine speeds.
Excessive engine speed will cause more hydraulic oil to be pumped than is
required to drive spinners and conveyor and may result in overheating the oil.
Too low an engine speed may not provide sufficient hydraulic oil flow to
maintain spread width or to keep the conveyor running at the speed required to
deliver the desired quantity of material being spread.
IMPORTANT!
Pump and truck requirements must be determined prior to installation of the
L3020G4.
