Select an area for testing measuring at least 120 feet x 200 feet (37 m x 61 m), and with a slope of less than
two degrees.
All testing should be done when the wind velocity is less than 5 MPH (8.05 km). If wind is present, testing
must be done with spreader traveling parallel (within ± 15 degrees) to the wind direction.
Do not allow loaded spreader to sit for more than one hour prior to testing.
At this stage of testing, drive the spreader over the collection trays in ONLY ONE DIRECTION.
Insert a plastic grid into each of the 23 collection trays. Position the blue collection tray in the center of the
spreader’s path with the longest dimension of the tray parallel to the direction of travel. Position the first
left-hand and right-hand trays 10’ (3m) from center, and all subsequent trays on 5’ (1.5m) centers.
