1) I would get the snow off the seat first
2) good luck starting that tractor let alone getting the manure to spread
3) We used a blast heater, nipco, kerosene jet engine thing and sheets of plywood around the tractors outside to create a cavity under them at a farm sale a couple weeks ago so the heat would form underneath and then be flow up by gravity, this worked perfect getting them all started outside in the zub zero temps. Doesnt take long either, it was amazing.

I bet if you had one of those or put sheets of plywood around the side of your spreader, put a heater under it, it would create heat under it where the bed chains are and loosen things up.
