Measure the distance between the ends of the two
shafts (Dimension “A”, Figure 1). Each half of the PTO
should be equal to dimension “A” minus two (2) inches.
If the driveline must be cut to a shorter length, clamp
driveline in a well-padded vise to prevent damage to the
shield (Figure 3). Cut the plastic shields 1 ½” shorte
than the shafts
.
Repeat the procedure to the other driveline half.
Remove all burrs and cuttings.
Apply multi-purpose grease to inside of oute
(female) driveline section. Assemble driveline and
install on tractor and spreader. Pull on each driveline
section to be sure yokes lock into place. Make certain
driveline shielding is in place and in good condition.
NOTE: A PTO driveline that is too long and
“bottoms out” could possibly cause severe damage
to the gearbox. It is VERY IMPORTANT to check the
proper PTO driveline length for your tractor.
Gearboxes damaged by incorrect PTO driveline
length are NOT covered by warranty.
NOTE: The use of a PTO shaft adapter or extension
could require that the PTO driveline be shortened a
considerable amount. If this i s done, the driveline
halves may separate when the spreader is lowered
to the ground.
Do not operate this equipment without shields
properly installed. This is for your protection, and
the manufacturer recommends the use of these
shields at all times.

loose shaft could slip off and result in personal
injury or damage to equipment
If your tractor has extra long lift arms, it may be
necessary to use a PTO extension so that you can use
the PTO shaft assembly provided. Be sure the PTO
assembly does not close too far (bottom out) if you use
a PTO extension.
Never raise or lower the seeder/spreader so tha
the PTO shaft assembly will come apart.
A heavy load can cause instability in driving a
tractor. Make sure the front of the tractor is
properly counter-balanced with weights. Always
drive slowly – especially around turns. An unstable
tractor could steer badly and possibly tip over,
causing injury or death.
Fertilizers will vary as to weight and quality, which
may require additional adjustment by moving he
individual fan blades. Moving the blade tips forward will
carry more material to the left side. Moving the fan
blade tips back will allow mor e material to be spread to
the right.
Make small adjustment moves and check spread
after each adjustment.
NOTE: The gearbox is filled wit h lubricant and sealed
at the factory. If operated and stored properly, the
gearbox will provide a long, trouble-f ree service life. I
disassembly of the gearbox should ever be required, i

Set out two markers 88 feet apart. Select proper
gear and adjust throttle speed to give the following
travel time as shown between the markers. NOTE:
You cannot adjust the throttle very much, as you
need to maintain 540 rpm PTO speed. (A plus or
minus 20 rpm could be tolerated).
1 MPH will travel 88 feet in 60 seconds
4 MPH will travel 88 feet in 15 seconds
5 MPH will travel 88 feet in 12 seconds

After selecting gear and throttle setting to give
desired speed, mark the throttle position in some
convenient manner. Check PTO speed to make
sure it is near 54 rpm.
3. Check rate chart for suggested setting for material type

4. You are now ready to make a trial run to assure

MAINTENANCE
1. The hopper should be washed af ter use, especially after
use with corrosive material such as fertilizer, salt, or ice
melting compounds. When dry, oil thoroughly.
2. The gearbox is filled with lubricant and sealed at the
factory. If operated and stored proper ly, the gearbox will
provide a long, tro uble-f ree service life. If disass embly o
the gearbox should ever b e required, it is important that
the box be re-filled with a good quality grease and that
the box halves are resealed with a silicone adhesive.
3. Grease PTO universal joints after every 8 hours o
operation. Lubricate steel tube and shaft so they
telescope freely.
4. Always store seeder/spreader in a clean, dry place.
5. Before using, check to m ake sure all nuts and bolts are
tight.
6. Paint any bare metal or rusty spots for longer life.
HELPFUL
TROUBLE-SHOOTING TIPS
1. NOT FEEDING EVEN
A. Seed gate opening may be set too close for the
material being spread. To overcome, set the
opening larger and drive faster to obtain same
spread rate.
B. Check material for foreign matter.
C. Check agitator drive pin for shear.
Page 5
2. POOR SPREAD
A. Too much speed (over 560 PTO rpm ) can cause
uneven spread.
B. PTO speed too slo w (PTO rpm under 520 rpm)
will result in a narrow spread.
C. Bent fan blades.
D. Drive pin sheared or missing on fan hub.
E. Too windy for material being spread.
F. Agitator problems. Check tips under “Not
Feeding Even”.
G. Operator not spacing spread runs properly fo
correct overlap.
For best results, cover area twice over at
one-half recommended material usage rate.
The second time over, r un halfway between
first spreading widths or in a criss-cross
pattern. This method allows the most
complete and even coverage, as well as to
give operator a chance to adj ust gate setting
to compensate for too thin or too heavy a
covering the first time over.
H. Seeder/spr eader sh ould run l evel or t ilted slight ly
forward. Make sure lift arms on tractor are
adjusted so one side is not lower than the other.
I. Running agitator when not spreading can result
in material being gr oun d up and pos sibl y pac king
over control gate opening. You can “over-
agitate” material.
The CS-94 Series of s eeder/spreaders have a two blade
knife type agitator as s tandard equipment. An optional long
wheel type agitator is available which will take care of ai
pockets in the hop per, mix up the material, and deliver it to
the bottom knif e type agit ator . Order p art num ber 420758 f or
the optional long wheel agitator.
This optional agitator is recommended for use when
spreading powdery fertilizer, salt and sand. It may cause
seed damage if used on grass seed or grain.
