hi guys!, does anyone know the settings for the vicon fertilizer spinner? I know the major needs to run @1200rpm , but which gear( flat fields) and what setting on the vicon its self . I need to apply 3cwts per acre by the way. Any ideas ?? thanks/diolch, rich.

You could do with a model type plus handbook or copy for the spinner settings or it will be guess work. If it is an older machine it will probably spread 10-12m at 540rpm at the PTO. If you only have a small area only open the speader a small amount and work over a known area. You can always go over it again (I am assuming it is grass) possibly at right angles the second time. Getting quite late for fert now.
