SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS

1. If the axle, slotted gear and sprocket assembly is
disassembled, mark down the positions of the parts
as they are removed. The drive wheel and sprocket
positions in relation to the slotted gear determine
which direction the spreader plate will spin. Be sure
to reassemble them in their original positions. (Refer
to figure 4 on page 6.) Use shim washers (Ref. no. 21
on pages 20 and 21) as needed for minimum back-
lash. Add grease to gear and sprocket.
2. If the agitator hairpin becomes damaged or worn it
can be replaced. See figure 17.
