Key assembly points include securing the hopper to the frame, attaching the fully enclosed gearbox, and installing the 13-inch pneumatic stud tires. The clog-free grate should be placed inside the hopper to prevent large clumps from obstructing material flow.

Before operation, ensure the spreader is on a level surface and the flow rate is set to 'off'. Fill the hopper with your desired material, ensuring the grate is in place to filter out large particles. Adjust the drop rate directly on the spreader according to the material and desired application density.

The EarthWay 2150 features a 3-hole-drop system with side-spread control, promoting an even spread pattern with feathered edging. This allows for accurate applications and helps prevent material from spreading into unwanted areas like flowerbeds or driveways. The 13-inch high flotation pneumatic stud tires provide smooth operation over rough or uneven terrain.

Техникалык тейлөө

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your EarthWay 2150 spreader, it is crucial to clean it thoroughly after each use. Residual fertilizer or seed can cause corrosion and hinder the functionality of moving parts. Rinse the hopper, spreader plate, and all exposed metal components with water. Allow all parts to dry completely before storage.

The fully enclosed gearbox is designed for years of service and requires minimal maintenance. Periodically check the pneumatic tires for proper inflation to ensure smooth operation and even spreading.

Проблемаларды чечүү

Clogging Issues:

If material flow is obstructed, first ensure the clog-free grate is properly installed and free of large clumps. Break up any hardened material in the hopper. Ensure the flow rate lever is fully open for the desired setting.

Uneven Spread Pattern:

Verify that the drop rate setting is appropriate for the material being used. Ensure the pneumatic tires are evenly inflated to maintain consistent ground contact. Walk at a steady pace to promote an even distribution.

Дөңгөлөктөрдүн дефляциясы:

Pneumatic tires may lose air over time. Inflate tires to the recommended pressure before each use. If frequent deflation occurs, inspect for punctures or valve stem issues.
