■ Never exceed 45 m.p.h. when loaded spreader is attached to vehicle. Braking distances may be
affected and handling characteristics may be impaired at speeds above 45 m.p.h.
■ Never use wet materials, or materials with foreign debris in the Fast-Cast Spreaders.
These units are designed to handle dry, clean, free-owing material.
Curtis Spreaders can not spread water softener salt.
■ Never leave material in Hopper for long periods of time. Be aware that all ice melters are
hygroscopic and will attract atmospheric moisture and harden up.
■ Always inspect pins, and latches whenever attaching or detaching Spreader, and before traveling.
■ Inspect the unit periodically for defects. Parts that are broken, missing, or worn out must be
replaced immediately. The unit, or any part of it should not be altered without prior written
permission from the manufacturer.
CAUTION

SECTION 2. OPERATING THE SPREADER
2a. PREPARATION
Sweep area clear of foreign
objects or obstacles that could
cause personal injury.
Keep other persons, children,
or animals out of the area to
be spread.
2b. SPREADER LOADING
Do not overload vehicle. Rock
Salt weighs 35-40 pounds per
cubic foot.
Maximum weight of materials
for the Fast-Cast 2000 is
350 lbs. for a pickup truck,
and 250 lbs. for a UTV mounted
Spreader.
Always comply with
manufacturer’s maximum
gross vehicle weight ratings.
Never leave materials in
Hopper for long periods of
time as salt is hygroscopic
and will attract atmospheric
moisture and harden up.
