OPERATING PROCEDURES
GENERAL INFORMATION
Hiniker spreaders are capable of dispersing
a variety of dry materials for control of ice on
roadways, walkways and parking lots.
Vehicle load carrying capacity limits the
maximum load that can be safely transported,
which could be less than the volumetric capacity
of the spreader. Check the vehicle’s load rating
certication sticker and DO NOT overload
the vehicle beyond its Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR). Check carrying capacity of 2” receiving
hitch on vehicle. Be sure not to overload hitch.
Overloading could result in an accident or
damage to vehicle and spreader.
An alternator rated for 135 amps or higher is
recommended.
Use the following tables to calculate vehicle
payload when material is loaded in the spreader.
VOLUMETRIC CAPACITY:
(Cubic Feet, Approx.)
LEVEL
Hopper Capacity Model 600P 6
Hopper Capacity Model 1000P 10
WEIGHT: (Pounds, Approx.)
Hopper Assembly Model 600P 120
Hopper Assembly Model 1000P 136
MATERIAL WEIGHTS:
(Pounds Per Cubic Feet, Approx)
Rock Salt, Dry 80 - 90
Salt Sand Mix, Dry * 95 - 120
* A 1:1 ratio recommended for salt/sand mix to
prevent material from freezing.
Calculate total material weight by multiplying
pounds per cubic foot by cubic foot of material.
Always examine spreader for worn or damaged
components prior to operation. During operation,
listen for unusual noise from spreader that
might indicate component failure. Never run a
machine in need of repair.
Verify cover rubber latches are secure and
safety cable hardware is tight before operating
and driving of motor vehicle.
Start spreader for a short period of time before
loading material to test for proper function of
moving parts.
After loading, run spreader in an isolated area,
clear of people, to become familiar with controls
and to verify correct spread pattern.
Do not load material the night before or material
may take in moisture and solidify before
operation. Load material right before use to
avoid material solidifying.
If material bridges or solidifies remove all
material from hopper.
Do not leave unused material in hopper
overnight. Remove all material from hopper
after each day’s use.
SANDER CONTROL BOX
Hiniker controllers are equipped with variable
material feed, blast control, and a push button for
an optional vibrator. The variable speed knob is
clearly marked with full counterclockwise(CCW)
being minimum speed/power and full clockwise
(CW) being maximum speed/power.
Operating Procedures 5

6 Operating Procedures
To turn on controller, push and hold power
button until push button illuminates red in color.
The Hiniker controller will pulse the drive motor
on and off a few times then drive motor at full
power for a short duration to loosen material
in hopper. The motor will then go to operator’s
preset speed. The speed will be shown by which
numbers are illuminated red on the dial.
Example: If numbers up to 5 are red in color,
spreader is set for speed setting 5.
An optional vibrator is available which helps
keep a steady flow of material onto spinner. It
also slightly increases rate at which material is
applied because a vibrator helps to put maximum
amount of material onto conveying mechanism.
To activate vibrator, push vibrator button until
light beside “Vibrator” button is illuminated
green in color.
Important: Vibrator should be used only when
necessary. Excessive use of vibrator may
damage hopper. Vibrator is recommended to
only be used when hopper is about 1/2 to 1/3
full until empty. Vibrator is also necessary when
material is damp. Vibrator should be turned
on for short durations of time to help with
material flow but is not recommended to be ran
continuously at any time.
Blast feature is used for slippery spots that need
excess salt/sand. When blast button is held
down material feed drive system runs at full
power applying maximum amount of material.
Light beside “Blast” button will illuminate green
when blast feature is active. Once button is
released blast feature will stop, and normal
preset application will resume.
Hiniker has safety features built into the controller
to protect its electrical components and motors.
When a potentially damaging overload occurs
the controller variable speed knob will flash
red. The controller will then reduce the amount
of voltage allowed to the motor and pulse the
motor for 1 minute.
This is an attempt to loosen frozen, wet, or
clumping material. If the motor is still drawing
too many amps after 1 minute the controller will
then stop sending power to motor and controller
will continue to flash red.

Operating Procedures 7
When this happens the spreader is most likely
jammed with frozen, wet, or clumping material.
The operator will need to get out of truck to
investigate cause of jam.
Before checking hopper be sure controller is
turned off and vehicle is off and in park with
ignition key in operator’s pocket.
Hiniker spreaders are equipped with a bottom
hopper slide gate to make checking material
jams easier. This gate is also used to empty
material out of hopper after each days use or to
empty hopper if frozen, wet, or solidied material
is in hopper.
To open bottom slide gates rst loosen wing nut
on both slide gates. Pull on outer formed edge
of both gates simultaneously to open. Remove
blockage and then slide gates until they are
almost touching auger tube and retighten wing
nuts. Dry material may now be put into hopper.
Controller will need to be shut o and back on to
resume material spreading.
SPREAD CONTROL
Spread pattern is controlled by (2) variables
motor speed and vehicle speed. The drive and
spinner motor are coupled together making them
run at the same RPM. As the drive motor is sped
up the material feed rate is increased. This also
increases the speed of the spinner making a
wider less populated spread pattern. If the motor
is ran at a slower speed the feed rate decreases.
This will decrease the spinner speed and cause
a smaller but heavier populated spread pattern.
The other variable is vehicle speed, a slower
vehicle speed results in heavier populated
spread pattern.
TRANSPORTING SPREADER
When transporting Hiniker spreaders it is
essential that the spreader is tied down using
ratcheting tie down straps to the rear corners of
the spreader (as shown).
It is recommended to attach tie downs so they
are pulling at a frontward and upward angle.
This will help take some of the weight off the
receiver hitch as well as stabilizing the spreader.
It is recommended to attach the ratchet straps
to the tie downs in the bed of the truck.
WARNING: Verify cover is secure to
hopper before transporting vehicle or
death, injury, or vehicle damage could
occur.
It is important to verify cover is secured to
hopper using rubber latches before transporting
spreader or a potentially dangerous situation
may occur. Also verify safety cable hardware is
tight and cables are in good working condition.

8 Operating Procedures
SWING AWAY KIT (Optional)
Hiniker Swing Away Kit makes loading of pallets
of bagged material into the back of a vehicle
easier. The swing away option can only be used
when the hopper is completely empty.
For loading material into back of vehicle remove
pin. Lift up on rear of spreader hopper frame
while pulling out or away from vehicle to unhitch
hopper from swing away frame. Swing hopper
out of bed area to allow material to be loaded
into rear of vehicle.
To relock hopper in place, swing hopper until
prong touches receiver tube. Lift up on back
of spreader hopper frame and push prong into
receiver tube. Push hopper in until hitch pin can
be inserted locking hopper to receiver frame.
Insert hitch pin and secure with hairpin.
DWG NO. 7272
VIBRATOR KIT (Optional)
Hiniker vibrator kit is to eliminate bridging and
assure continuous ow of dry material to the
auger.
Important: Vibrator should be used only when
necessary. Excessive use of vibrator may
damage hopper. Vibrator is recommended to
only be used when hopper is about 1/2 to 1/3
full until empty. Vibrator is also necessary when
material is damp. Vibrator should be turned
on for short durations of time to help with
material flow but is not recommended to be ran
continuously at any time.
