TURBO-HOP OPERATOR S MANUAL - MAINTENANCE DANGER: Stop engine, lock parking brake and remove key before performing any service or maintenance. Always use personal protection devices, such as a breathing mask capable of filtering toxic powders, safety glasses and gloves, when performing maintenance. Refer to chemical manufacturer's label for specific safety information. Keep fingers out of slots to prevent injury..0 - Maintenance Safety. Good maintenance is your responsibility.. Keep service area clean and dry. Be sure electrical outlets and tools are properly grounded. Use adequate light for the job at hand. 3. Make sure there is plenty of ventilation. Never operate the engine of the towing vehicle in a closed building. The exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation.. Make no repair or adjustments with the tractor engine running. Before working on the machine, disengage the PTO, shut off the engine, set the brakes, and remove the ignition key. 5. Be certain all moving parts on attachment have come to a complete stop before attempting to perform maintenance. 6. Never work under equipment unless it is blocked securely. 7. Always use personal protection devices such as eye, hand and hearing protectors, when performing any service or maintenance. 8. Never trust the tractor hydraulics alone to support the machine. Before repairing or adjusting the machine, it should be lowered and allowed to rest on a stand. 9. Periodically tighten all bolts, nuts and screws and check that all cotter pins are properly installed to ensure unit is in a safe condition. 0. When completing a maintenance or service function, make sure all safety shields and devices are installed before placing unit in service.. Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the proper equipment and experience to do the job.. Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous. Whenever possible, trained personnel should be called to service and/or mount tires. 3.After servicing, be sure all tools, parts and service equipment are removed. MAINTENANCE BEFCO
TURBO-HOP OPERATOR S MANUAL. Never replace hex bolts with less than grade five bolts unless otherwise specified, i.e. shear bolts 7. 5. Where replacement parts are necessary for periodic maintenance and servicing, genuine replacement parts must be used to restore your equipment to original specifications. The company will not claim responsibility for use of unapproved parts and/or accessories and other damages as a result of their use. 6. Unauthorized modifications to the machine may impair the function and/or safety of the machine and reduce its life. If equipment has been altered in any way from original design, the manufacturer does not accept any liability for injury or warranty..0 - Service Before beginning work:. Apply a thick layer of grease to all exposed moving parts.. Apply a film of biodegradable oil in crevices and corners in order to keep corrosive material from rusting areas that are difficult to clean. 3. Every 8 hours check the gearbox oil level with dipstick (see fig. 5). (Use SAE 90W lubricant) Fig. 5 - Gearbox Use dipstick to check oil in gearbox every 8 hours. After each use:. Be sure to thoroughly wash the machine without using excessive pressure especially on the moving parts. It is particularly important to wash the implement after using salt or fertilizer. This will help prevent the caustic chemicals in the salt and fertilizer from destroying the metal of the machine.. Carefully dry the machine. 3. Apply a thick layer of grease to all exposed moving parts.. Apply a film of biodegradable oil in crevices and corners. 5. Grease the driveline cross and bearing and shielding (see fig. 6). 6. Grease the telescoping inner and outer tubes (see fig. 6). 7 Refer to Table - Torque Specifications, for head identification marking, page 6. MAINTENANCE 3 BEFCO
TURBO-HOP OPERATOR S MANUAL Fig. 6 NOTE: The gearbox has been filled with EP grade grease from the factory. The grease never needs replacing unless internal work is done to the gearbox. IMPORTANT: Periodically check the bronze slide (5-505R) inside the gearbox. This is the heart of the machine and its condition will determine how the spreader runs. When the flywheel is turned by hand, there should be no jerking movement. The flywheel and the spout should move as one. If there are stops and starts, this may be an indication of wear on the bronze slide and it should be replaced immediately. Failure to do so can create problems to other parts of the spreader..03 - Driveline DANGER: Only use the original driveline supplied with this machine and always with safety shielding installed and working properly. In the collapsed position the driveline should be approximately from bottoming out to prevent possible damage to the tractor or implement. When the PTO is in the maximum extended position, the ideal minimum overlap of the two halves should be approximately 6 (see fig. 7). If determined that the driveline is too long, follow these procedures to adjust the length:. Separate the two driveline halves. Connect one half to the tractor PTO and the other half to the spreader.. Raise and lower the spreader with the three point hitch to find the position where the driveline is shortest. Hold the halves shafts side by side and mark the desired length on the outer female tube guard leaving a gap between the end of the guard tube and bell guard. 3. Cut off both guard tubes the same amount as marked in step.. Shorten both drive tubes the same amount as guard tubes. MAINTENANCE BEFCO
TURBO-HOP OPERATOR S MANUAL 5. De-burr and clean filings from drive tubes and apply grease to outside of inner telescoping tube. Fig. 7 min. 6" MAX. min. " MIN. Reassemble the driveline halves and connect to tractor and spreader. Raise and lower spreader again to be sure driveline does not bottom out in its shortest position and has a minimum overlap of 6 in the longest position. If the driveline has less than minimum overlap, do not use. Contact your Authorized Company Dealer. CAUTION: Always work with the driveline as straight as possible. This will prolong its life and that of its components. It is advised not to work at an angle greater than 5 degrees..0 - Transport CAUTION: Do not tow tractor and spreader behind other vehicles. Use a properly equipped trailer with heavy tie-downs for towing operations. Before transporting:. Always select a safe ground speed that is appropriate for the terrain.. Beware of traffic on public roads. Install a SMV (Slow Moving Vehicle) sign when traveling on roads or streets. 3. Reduce ground speed when turning and take care that the spreader does not strike obstacles such as trees, fences or buildings. MAINTENANCE 5 BEFCO
