1. Enfòmasyon sou Sekirite

Read and understand all safety instructions before operating the Spyker P20-5010 Broadcast Spreader. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury or property damage.

• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and eye protection, when handling materials and operating the spreader.
• Ensure the spreader is on a level surface before filling or making adjustments.
• Kenbe timoun ak bèt kay lwen zòn operasyon an.
• Do not overload the hopper beyond its 50-pound capacity.
• Clean the spreader thoroughly after each use to prevent material buildup and corrosion.
• Store the spreader in a dry, secure location, out of reach of children.

3. Enstriksyon Asanble

Follow these steps to assemble your Spyker P20-5010 Broadcast Spreader.

1. Atache Asanble Manch lan: Secure the handle to the main frame using the provided bolts and nuts. Ensure all connections are tight.
2. Connect the Control Linkage: Attach the solid steel linkage from the handle control to the hopper's on-off assembly. This linkage controls the material flow.
3. Enstale wou yo: The pneumatic tires are typically pre-installed on the frame. Verify they are securely attached and properly inflated.
4. Place Hopper: Position the polypropylene hopper onto the frame. Ensure it sits securely and aligns with the spreading mechanism.
5. Install Screen Cover: Place the screen cover over the top of the hopper. This helps prevent large clumps from entering the spreading mechanism.

4. Operasyon Enstriksyon

Proper operation ensures efficient and uniform material application.

4.1 Ranpli Hopper la

• Ensure the flow control lever is in the OFF position before filling.
• Place the spreader on a level surface.
• Carefully pour the desired material (fertilizer, seed, ice melt) into the hopper. Do not exceed the 50-pound capacity.
• Ensure the screen cover is in place to prevent large debris from clogging the mechanism.

4.2 Adjusting Spread Settings

The Spyker Dial offers 90 settings for precise calibration. Refer to the material manufacturer's recommendations or a Spyker calibration chart for the appropriate setting for your specific material.

• Locate the Spyker Dial on the handle or near the hopper.
• Adjust the dial to the recommended setting for your material.
• Test the spread pattern and adjust as necessary to achieve desired coverage.

4.3 Spreading Material

• Begin walking at a consistent pace before engaging the flow control lever to the ON pozisyon.
• Maintain a steady walking speed for uniform application.
• When turning or stopping, move the flow control lever to the OFF position to prevent over-application in one area. The positive on/off linkage ensures immediate material cutoff.
• Overlap each pass slightly to ensure complete coverage without gaps.

5. Antretyen

Regular maintenance extends the life and performance of your spreader.

• Netwayaj: After each use, empty any remaining material from the hopper. Rinse the hopper and spreading mechanism with water. Allow all parts to dry completely before storage.
• Lubrifikasyon: Periodically apply a light lubricant (e.g., pump oil) to moving parts, such as the axle, gears, and the gate control mechanism. This ensures smooth operation and prevents corrosion. The fully enclosed gearbox requires minimal maintenance but should be checked for any signs of wear.
• Depo: Store the spreader in a dry, covered area to protect it from weather elements.
• Presyon kawotchou: Check the pressure of the pneumatic tires periodically and inflate to the recommended PSI as indicated on the tire sidewall.

NAN. Depanaj

Address common issues that may arise during operation.

• Uneven Spread Pattern:
  • Ensure the spreader is clean and free of material buildup around the spinner and gate.
  • Verify the calibration setting is appropriate for the material being used.
  • Maintain a consistent walking speed.
  • Check for any obstructions or damage to the spinner or internal components.
• Material Not Flowing:
  • Confirm the flow control lever is in the ON pozisyon.
  • Check for clogs in the hopper opening or spreading mechanism.
  • Ensure the material is dry and free of clumps. Break up any large clumps.
• Difficulty Pushing Spreader:
  • Tcheke presyon kawotchou.
  • Ensure the wheels and axle are free of debris and lubricated.
  • Avoid overloading the hopper.
