CHECK TIRE PRESSURE
DANGER
Pressurized Cap Can Cause Seriou s In jury
If Improperly Opened.
Never open oil cap without releas ing
pressure valve stem.
Keep face and upper body away from cap
while opening.
CHECK HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
1. The hydraulic sy stem is design ed to operate on
10W30 SF-CC oil. The tank contains 2 gallons of
oil. There should be 4" of oil in th e tank whe n full.
2. Pressurize the hydraulic tank with air (20 to 40
PSI). Always maintain air pressure in the tank to
minimize slipping of the conveyo r belt whe n using
heavy or wet sand.
3. Visually inspe ct th e hydra ulic s ystem for leaks,
loose fasteners, missing parts, improperly routed
lines. Make all repairs before operating.
1. Check tire pressure before e ac h use. Be ca use
the topdresser is ground driven always maintain
tire pressure at 20 PSI.
ATTACH TOPDRESS ER TO TOW ING
VEHI CLE
1. Attach the topdresser to the towing vehicle.
Use the pin on the towing vehicle to secure.
2. Connect the long half of the wiring harness to
short half at the end of the tongue.
3. Connect th e red w ire to the posit ive te rminal on
the towing vehicle battery. The white wire
connects to the negative te rmina l.
4. Gather and consolidate all loose wires. Tape
together with existin g wires on the towing vehicle.
Make sure there a re no loos e or dan glin g wire s to
interfere with the operation of the unit.
5. Pull the unit forward at a slow speed and flip the
electric al switch to t he "O N " po sit ion . If b rush a nd

rotat e, chec k the t roub le shoo ting pa ge (pg. 16) f or
details. After checking, turn the switch off.
CONTROLS
ELECTRIC SWITCH
The electric switch has 2 positions; ON, OFF.
When switch is on the conveyor belt and brush will
rotate. When switch is off the conveyor belt and
brush stop rotating.
GATE CONTROL ARM (Fig. 3)
The gate control arm is used to control the amou nt
of sand being applied to the turf. The black knob
on the end is used t o loc k t he s et tin g int o position.
1. Loosen t he black knob e nough to allo w the arm

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
NEVER carry passengers on the machin e or
towing vehicle, and keep everyone away from
the areas of ope ration.
To avoid loss of control, NEVER, tow the unit
faster than 12 MPH.
Keep hands an d f e et out of hopp er wh en uni t

1. Fill the hopper with sand. The maximum
amount of san d that can be put into the hopper is
2500 pounds. The weight of the topdresser filled
with sand is approximately 3500 pounds. The
towing vehicle should have adequate brakes to
handle this we ight. Check the spe cific ations in t he
towing vehicle’s operator manual pertaining to
towing weight.
IMPORTANT:

3. Slowly pull the topdresser forward and flip the
electrical switch to the "ON" position. The unit is
now topdressing.
4. Flip electric switch to OFF to stop topdressing
and before tran sp ortin g.
SAND APPLICATION RATE
The rate of sand being applied depends on the
weight of the sand. Sand varies in moisture and
coarseness which effects the weight. These
factors must be taken into consideration when
determining the amount of sand required for the
application. Test a small area to determine the
correct amount.
IMPORTANT: The maximum amount of sand
that can be put into the hopper is 2500
pounds.
NEVER top dress at a speed faster than 8
MPH.

BEARINGS (Fig. 4)
The topdresser has 5 self sealing bearings that
must be lubricated with a No. 2 Lithium based
grease.

must run smoothly with no jerking motion .
6. When all are operating smo othly, inst all th e air
pressure cap. Check the air pressure cap for
leaks. See Check Hydraulic Syste m under Befo re
Operating (pg. 8).
IMPORTANT: When working with hydraulics,
you must keep the work area as clean as
possible. Change oil and filter as
recommended. If you have a new piece of
equipment under warranty and a hydraulic item
goes out . . . . don’t try to fix it. Install a new
part and return the de fective part to the factory.
It is easier to get warran ty on a part that has n ot
been taken apart.
CHANGING OIL FILTER
The oil filter is a 10 micron cross f ilter. Change the
filter every 100 hours of operation. Always fill the
element with oil when inst allin g a new filte r.
3. With towing unit, pull the topdress er up to
8 MPH. Pull the top dresser until all "jerking"
motion has stopped.

OIL TANK
The oil tank is a 2 gallon capa city tank. Th e oil type
is 10W30 or 10W40 SF - CC (preferably 10W30).
Change oil every 500 hours or yearly, whichever
comes first. The drain plug is located on the
bottom of the tank.
IMPORTANT: When adding oil to the system
pour it through a funne l with a fine mesh screen
(200 mesh or better). Keep the funnel and
containers immaculately clean. This
procedure prevents accidental contamination
of the hydrauli c system.
WHEEL MOTOR NUT TORQUE (Fig. 6)
ALWAYS torque the nut on the whee l motor to 2 30

nut on the outside as shown in Fig. 6. If the tabs
are insta lled on the insid e, again st the h ub, the nut

1. Pull the topdresser forward until the conveyor
belt seam is in the center of the hopper.
2. Loosen t he nuts (A) on the spring rod to rele ase
the tension .(See Figure 11).

5. Lay the new belt on th e frame and roll it arou nd
the rollers bringing th e seam to the center.
Hydraulic Schematic (pg. 15).
CONVEYOR BELT LACING
The lacing on the conveyor belt has a silicone
sealer on it to prevent sand leakage inside the
conveyor belt. Re apply once a year and everytime
the lacing is removed for service. The silicone may
be purchased locally. It is multi-purpose, weather
resistant and should be flexible or flowable.
1. Tigh ten the nu t on the spring rod until t he spring
is compressed to 4-1/2" as shown in Fig. 11. Be
sure the front roller is parallel with the drive roller.
This can be done by measuring the distance
between the drive roller bearing bolt and the idler
roller bearing bolt on each side. If there is a
difference tighten the nut on the spring rod until

SEASONAL STORAGE
1. Thoroughly clean the topdresser, especially
inside the hopper . The hopper and conv eyor belt
area should be free of any remaining sand
particles.
2. Apply a light coat of silicone to the lacing of the
conveyor belt. Refer to Mainten ance se ctio n
3. Inflate all tires to 20 PSI. Or block up the
