Help in building/plumbing lime spreader...

Posted by Clefus on January 17, 2009 at 20:48:55 from (98.21.20.155):

I am in need of some good advice on plumbing a project..

I am building a tow behind lime spreader, '74 IH dually dump chassis, v-box with horizontal feed auger and spinner..hooked to tractor hydraulics ( open port..not valved from tractor)..

Ive attached a schematic of what I think I may need....not sure..

I have the auger/motor and will get the spinner setup ...both will be hydraulic motors...

Can I use the flow valves like I've drawn ??

Can I route two returns teed into one back to the tractor ??

Or what do I need to do to plumb this up??

Also not sure how wide one spinner will spread...may need two...

I just need sound answers...buying one is out of the question...I have most of the material here.....and I need to get the lime spread in spring....some ground is too rough/steep for a truck and want to do it at my convenience...not rely on others...no renting ect....

Thanks for any replies
