INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED
Securing Spreader Body to Frame
Install mounting angles and tighten mounting bolts to recommended torque. Weld mounting angles to spreader
cross tubes by welding on front, outer and rear sides (Figure 4). Make sure welds between mounting angles
and spreader cross tubes are sound full fillet welds. Center mounting angles so good fillet welds can be made
on three sides, an edge bead weld is not a satisfactory weld for this service. Use dry E6013 or E7018 rod
for mild steel spreaders and type 308 welding rod on stainless steel.
Figure 4 - Welding Instructions
Connect welders ground directly to one of the items being welded anytime an arc
welder is used on the vehicle or anything connected to the vehicle. Disconnect power
cable from control box! Failure to do so can result in damage to components on both
the vehicle and/or spreader, in which case the warranty will be null and void by
manufacturer.
