| Abstract/Contents: | "Adjusting the distribution pattern of a rotary spreader by moving a deflector linearly to radially move the drop point on the impeller is a new concept in commercial turf spreaders, although the concept has previously been incorporated in large agricultural spreaders. A spreader using this concept was tested extensively in the laboratory. The results showed that this method can effectively reduce pattern skewing and, thus, provide acceptable pattern uniformity at a somewhat greater swath width than can be obtained without the deflector. The spreader did not deliver a uniform pattern even with the deflector; the deflector merely eliminated skewing. The pattern was very sensitive to small changes in deflector position." |
