Subject: RE: Rate Charts for United Farm Tools - Spreader


Thanks for the picture of your rate chart.
I'm not for sure it will help. My spreader has a 24" chain
and gate, dual spinner, with only 45' spread patern.
It's a true lime spreader as well as fertilizer.
I've weighed material and calibrated the gate
the best I can, but at even low speed setting-
just 7/8" opening on the gate, it will dump 350 lb.
of 60 lb./cu.ft. material.
It's incredably narrow gate settings for fertilizer
make is difficult to keep shear bolts in, due to the
tremendous drag on the 2' chain being pulled under
a load of fertilizer.

Again thanks for your attention to my issue.
