Safety

Before attempting any procedure in this book, these safety instructions must be read and understood by all workers who have any part in the preparation or use of this equipment.

For your safety warning and information decals have been placed on this product to remind the operator of safety precautions . If anything happens to mark or destroy the decals, please request new ones from Trynex, International.

Unit must be strapped down and locked into position before operating vehicle.

Never exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of vehicle. Failure to do so may limit a vehicle’s handling characteristics.

Never attempt to take a unit o a truck with material in it.

Never exceed 45 m.p.h. when loaded spreader is attached to vehicle. Braking distances may be increased and handling characteristics may be impaired at speeds above 45 m.p.h.

Never allow children to operate or climb on equipment. Always check areas to be spread to be sure no hazardous conditions or substances are in the area. Always inspect unit for defects: broken, worn or bent parts, weakened areas on spreader or mount.

Always shut o vehicle and power source before attempting to attach or detach or service spreader unit. Be sure vehicle/power source is properly braked or chocked.

Always keep hands, feet, and clothing away from power-driven parts. Remember it is the owner’s responsibility to communicate information on safe usage and proper maintenance of all equipment.

Always make sure personnel are clear of areas of danger when using equipment. Maintain 60' distance from all bystanders when operating the spreader.

Inspect the unit periodically for defects. Parts that are broken, missing, or worn out must be replaced immediately. The unit, or any part of it cannot be altered without prior written permission from the manufacturer.

Never use V-Maxx 9300 with foreign debris in the spreader. These units are designed to handle clean, free-owing material.

MAX — 5

Safety

Always inspect pins and latches whenever attaching or detaching spreader, and before traveling.

Never leave material in hopper for long periods of time. Be aware that all ice melters are hygroscopic and will attract atmospheric moisture and harden up.

Remember, most accidents are preventable and caused by human error. and precautions must be observed to prevent the possibility of injury to operator or others!

Never operate equipment when under the inuence of alcohol, drugs, or medication that might alter your judgment and/or reaction time.

Before working with the spreader, secure all loose tting clothing and unrestrained hair.

Always wear safety glasses with side shields when servicing spreader. Failure to do this could result in serious injury to the eyes.

Exercising of care

t The Dual Variable Speed Control has dual nger-tip dials for maximum performance, digital system status with warning

protection and built-in vibrator switch.

t To start, press power switch on controller and spreader will accelerate to speed set on spinner and auger dials.

t To stop, press power switch on controller to o position.

t Speed of auger and spinner may be adjusted separately to get desired ow and spread distance from spreader.

t The Vibrator Switch is needed for dense material or to increase the ow to the auger. This eliminates bridging of material

in hopper.

WARNING PROTECTION

t If audible beeping occurs, read display to identify problem. If display reads “OL” (overload) or “OH” (overheat), shut

controller down and carefully clear jammed auger. If display reads “E1“ this means there is a dead short in system. Do not use until problem is corrected. If display reads “E 0” this means that the motor is not getting any power. Check all connections If display reads “LB” the vehicle battery is extremely low (possibly caused by a poor or corroded connection)

and could damage the system.

t If there are any problems while operating the spreader, refer to Troubleshooting Guide.

AUTO-REVERSE “AR” FUNCTION

t If your controller displays “OL” this could indicate a jammed auger.

t To engage the Auto-Reverse “AR” function:

Step 1: Shut the Main Power Switch OFF for 3 seconds.

Step 2: Turn the Main Power Switch ON. When the machine starts back up the “AR” sequence will automatically start

BAFFLE INSTRUCTIONS

t The V-Maxx SP-9300 uses a dual bae design over the auger area.

This bae (D6889) is used for dry bulk materials. The bae is designed to reduce the risk of leakage with clean/dry free-owing materials. If the material you are using is damp/wet, you may need to remove bae (D6889). This will allow for more un-restricted ow of materials and possible bridging.

t With spreader mounted on vehicle, plug vehicle (CHMSL) harness into spreader stop lamp harness.

t Using supplied harness clamps and screws, route harness along side wall lower corner or so that harness will be out of

the way when spreader is in use.

t Locate vehicle ground wire and stop lamp power wire at rear of vehicle. Use supplied wire taps to connect harness to

vehicle electrical system. Once wire taps are installed check to make sure stop lamp works when brake pedal is pressed. Properly complete installation by tying up any loose wires with ty-wraps. Add electrical tape over both connections to insure a solid electrical connection. Some newer trucks have auxiliary stop lamp power leads already at the rear for

these types of applications.
