Material Flow Divider
The Magna Spread flow divider guides the material onto the spinners to optimize the particular
fin designs. The flow divider settings are similar to standard BBI spreaders and are adjusted in
the same fashion.
An insert for the flow divider is used when
spreading fertilizer. The insert should be
removed for spreading lime at high rates.
It can be placed in its holder located on the
outside of the hopper when not in use.
The initial setting for the Magna Spread
flow divider will differ depending on the
type of spreader in question. For example
a unit with an 16” mesh chain conveyor
will have a different flow divider setting
than a 24” mesh chain. This also holds
true for the spinner fins’ position.
The setting may need adjusting further
after checking the spread pattern. (For
information about checking the spread
pattern and adjusting the material flow
divider, please refer to the appropriate
section in the owner’s manual.)
WARNING!
Use the flow divider insert for fertilizer and
remove it for lime.
Do not attempt to remove the flow
divider insert or make adjustments
while the spreader is under power.
Make sure spinners have completely
stopped before servicing. Serious
injury can occur.
