In Season MaintenanceSnow removal equipment must be cared for and maintained regularly. Daily or pre-route inspection and maintenance are necessary. Failure to do so may affect efficiency and safety. A visual inspection must be carried out after every 8 hours of operation. Look for damaged com-ponents, bends, cracked welds or hydraulic leaks. REPAIR IMMEDIATELY! It is recommended to re-torque all bolts after the first 8 hours of use and to regularly check for loosened or missing fasten-ers. Replace any damaged or missing fasteners immediately. Because of the environment in which snow equipment is expected to operate, hydraulic lines, fasteners, wearable or replaceable items and warning decals may become damaged by snow, ice and road debris. These items must be inspected daily and replaced if necessary to avoid equip-ment damage or personal injury. Lubrication of moving parts is of the utmost importance. Exposure to snow, ice, salt and road debris will wash away lubrication quickly and it may be necessary to inspect and reapply lubrication more than once a day.

Gearbox and BearingsUse the sight glass on the gearbox monthly to check the oil level and fill if necessary. The gearbox oil should be changed every 2,000 hrs of operation or at the end of each season whichever comes first. Use of 90 weight oil is recommended.


Conveyor Chain TensionConveyor chain tension affects chain and sprocket life. Our spreaders come standard with remote chain tensioners that are accessible from the rear of spreader. Adjust the spreader tension using a wrench extension or an impact by turning the bolt head on the extension tube located above the spinner below the conveyor at the rear of the spreader. Holes are provided in the rear conveyor plate for easy access. Chain tension illustrations are provided below.

NOTE: Conveyor chain will stretch as used. Chain tension must be checked after each use during

initial break in period and monthly thereafter.


End Of Season MaintenanceHOPPER & WELDMENTS

l HOPPER: Thoroughly clean inside of hopper making sure to remove all salt, sand, or grit as these materials will cause the hopper to corrode more quickly. It is recommended to coat lower inside portion of hopper and conveyor with a sealant/ lubricating spray such as Lubra-Seal.

l BOLT ON WELDMENT: Thoroughly CHECK ALL WELDMENTS FOR CRACKS. If any portion of a weldment shows signs of cracking or is damaged repair or replace it immediately. Damage to storage equipment such as stands or lift loops can cause injury or death (please refer to the safety section of product manual).

l SPINNER BAFFLES AND GUARDS: Replace any broken, excessively worn, or bent baffles, and broken or worn guards.

CONVEYOR COMPONENTS

l SHAFTS AND BEARINGS: Replace broken or worn sprockets, and any damaged keyed components. Grease all bearings and replace if overly worn or if seal has been breached.

l CONVEYOR: Replace broken or worn chain links and conveyor cross slats. Cycle conveyor to gain access to and lubricate each chain link.

l HARDWARE: Replace missing or broken bolts. Proper torque is important!

HYDRAULICS

l HOSES: Plug or cap any QC fittings or any open hose ends. Inspect hoses for any leaks or potential leaks. Secure hoses with hose clamps.

l MOTORS AND GEARBOX: Check for leaks and cracks especially around the mounting holes and hose ports. Replace components if housing has been compromised. Gearbox must be fully drained and refilled yearly with 90 weight oil.
