Additional Safety Reminders
USER/OPERATOR SAFETY PRACTICES are included in this manual and are intended to promote SAFE OPERATION of this
equipment.
These guidelines do not preclude the use of good judgment, care, and common sense as may be indicated by the particular
job site work conditions.
It is essential that all operators be physically and mentally free of any mind altering drugs and chemicals and thoroughly
trained in the safe operation of this equipment. Such training should be presented completely to all new operators and NOT
condensed for those claiming previous experience.
FOR ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY some photographs and images in this manual may show doors, guards, and shields
open or removed. BE SURE all doors, guards, and shields are in their proper operating positions BEFORE operating this
equipment. NEVER operate this equipment with any guards or shields damaged or not in place. REPLACE any damaged or
missing guards and shields.
KEEP HANDS AND FEET AWAY FROM ALL MOVING PARTS!
The operator MUST know the capabilities and work applications for this equipment and operate it at speeds slow enough to
ensure complete control at all times. When working on uneven ground or near the edge of roadbeds there is no substitute for
good judgment and only operators with sufficient experience should attempt such work.
NEVER assume everyone is as safety conscious at you are.
Personal Safety
NEVER allow minors and/or any unqualified personnel to operate or be near this equipment unless properly supervised.
NEVER allow anyone to ride on this equipment at any time.
NEVER leave this equipment running unattended.
NEVER wear loose or torn clothing while working around moving parts.
NEVER step on the PTO drive shaft at any time.
ALWAYS wear appropriate personal safety equipment and gear as called for by the job or working conditions.
ALWAYS be aware of pinch point areas on this equipment.
ALWAYS keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from moving parts.
ALWAYS stop and disengage the PTO and shut off the tractor before doing any adjusting or servicing to this equipment.
Towing Safety
THE MAXIMUM SPEED FOR TOWING THIS EQUIPMENT IS 20 MPH.
Observe the recommended maximum road speed limit, local speed limit, or maximum recommended towing speed whichever
is the lesser speed.
ALWAYS MOVE THIS EQUIPMENT WITH A FARM TRACTOR ONLY.
Always engage power steering (on equipment with steering capabilities) before turning with a load.
DO NOT DISENGAGE power steering (on equipment with steering capabilities) before the turning process is completed.
Tractor must be heavy and powerful enough and have adequate braking power for the towed load.

which are too heavy for the tractor or are towed too fast can cause loss of control. Consider the total weight of all equipment
and the load.
Use additional caution when towing loads under adverse surface conditions (ice, mud, loose gravel, etc.), turning, or slopes.
DO NOT ATTACH safety chain to any point higher than the drawbar.
SAFETY

8Eliminator Vacuum Tank (Tandem) User Manual
Operation Safety
Before each tow check the electrical connection, tail lights, brake lights, and turn signals. Damaged lights or improper electrical
connection between the tractor and this equipment will result in inoperable lights and/or inoperable electric brakes.
Do not operate on public roads after dark without warning lights. Be alert and avoid loose, soft, or icy surface conditions which
could cause tipping or loss of control.
Be sure the rear of this equipment has a visible and clean “Slow Moving Vehicle” emblem properly displayed. If towing at
speeds less than 20 MPH on any public roadway at night, proper warning and running lights are necessary as required by state
law! MAXIMUM TOWING SPEED IS 20 MPH.
DO NOT pull this equipment without having safety chains securing this equipment to the tractor. Refer to local transportation
laws for regulation on safety chain use.
The tractor must be of sufficient size to maintain vehicle stability when this equipment is fully loaded. Never use a tractor that
is not recommended for this equipment’s application.
ALWAYS use a hitch pin which has a safety clip pin!
If this equipment includes a braking system, check oil level and braking capacity with a full load before operating or moving
this equipment.
Check the wheel lug bolts and lug nuts daily and tighten as needed.
Replace any parts showing signs of excessive wear, cracking, or likelihood of failure with original equipment service parts.
Be familiar with all valves, doors, gates, and hydraulic controls.
BEFORE USE make sure this equipment does NOT have any foreign objects or materials which can cause equipment damage
or personal injury.
NEVER ENTER THIS EQUIPMENT UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY! If entry is necessary, take proper safety precautions
to include but not limited to:
• Additional person on site and on the outside near the point of entry
• Safety harness and ropes where appropriate or required by law
• Proper life support system where appropriate or required by law
• Mechanical and electrical power disconnected
• Contacting your Balzer dealer for more information before entering
Check that the PTO slides freely, is not damaged, and is properly secured to the tractor and this equipment. Make sure there
is approximately 1/3 overlap of engagement.
When possible, travel straight up or down a slope. Avoid traveling along side of hills, ditches, or other sloped surfaces. Slow
down prior to going down any steep grade. Never take tractor out of gear when going up or down a hill.
Always check the job site for hazardous terrain, obstructions, or bystanders.
Do not exceed the maximum weight carrying capacity of the equipment or the tractor manufacturer’s maximum towing capacity,
whichever is the lesser weight. If you have any questions, contact your Balzer dealer.
When agitating a pit, always make sure there is adequate ventilation in any confined area.
Do not stand in front, behind, or along side this equipment when it is in operation or in motion.
When parking this equipment, securely block the wheels before unhitching from the tractor.
Boom Safety
The boom on this unit can extend upward and outward away from the unit. Before operating boom, check surrounding area,
including above the unit, for any electrical power sources or lines. Electrocution can result if unit comes into contact with
electrical power sources.
SAFETY
DANGER ELECTROCUTION can result if unit comes into contact
with electrical power sources or lines. Check overhead
and surrounding areas to make sure unit is clear of
any possible electrical source contact.

9Eliminator Vacuum Tank (Tandem) User Manual
Before moving this unit, make sure boom is properly resting in the boom saddle. Moving this unit with the boom not resting in
the boom saddle can result in damage to the unit, other equipment, or buildings. It could also create an unbalanced load which
could lead to the unit rolling onto its side.
Hydraulic System Safety
DO NOT smoke when working on hydraulic systems.
NEVER use your hand to search for hydraulic fluid leaks. Escaping fluid under pressure can be invisible and can penetrate the
skin causing serious injury and other health hazards. Escaping fluid can also be extremely hot causing severe burns.
Use a scrap piece of cardboard to check for leaks.
IF ANY FLUID IS INJECTED INTO YOUR SKIN, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY! Notify medical staff that there
is an injection injury with hydraulic fluid. Injected fluid must be surgically removed by a doctor familiar with this type of injury
or gangrene may result.
DO NOT attempt to loosen or disconnect any lines, hoses, or fittings without first relieving hydraulic circuit pressure. Be careful
not to touch any hydraulic components recently in operation because they can be extremely hot.
ALWAYS replace hydraulic components with manufacturer recommended replacement parts. Improperly rated components
may result in system failure and/or injuries.
Contact your local Balzer dealer to order replacement parts.

Do not wear loose fitting clothing or have long, free-hanging hair when operating the PTO (Power Take Off) or near ANY rotating
equipment.
Never exceed the recommended operating speed (PTO and drive) for the particular equipment in use.
When operating stationary PTO driven equipment, always apply the tractor’s parking brake lock and block the rear wheels front
and back.
To avoid injury, do not clean, adjust, unclog, or service PTO driven equipment when the tractor engine is running.
When finished with the operation of PTO driven equipment, shift the PTO control to neutral, shut off the engine, remove the key,
and wait until the PTO stops before exiting the tractor.
Implement input drivelines, clutches, and freewheels are designed for specific machine types and power requirements.
They must not be replaced by any shaft other than that recommended by the implement manufacturer. Note the Operating
Instructions from both the tractor manufacturer and the implement manufacturer. Ensure the implement driveline is securely
connected at both ends.
Only use a completely guarded drive system (Figure 1). PTO drive systems with complete guarding include: the tractor master
shield, the implement driveline guard (end cones, telescoping section sleeves, guard chain), and the implement safety shield.
These safety devices must be installed at all times.
If any component of the guarding system has been removed for any reason, it must be repaired or replaced prior to operation
of the machine.
Safety Signs and Decals
Safety signs or decals provide very important information and instructions designed to alert you to dangers and hazards which
can be present during operation of this equipment. These safety signs and
decals MUST be read, understood, and followed to be effective.
Replacement of Safety Signs and Decals
Safety signs and decals must be kept clean and readable. If they become
unreadable for any reason, they must be replaced with an identical
replacement sign or decal. Safety signs and decals must also be replaced
if damaged when repairing this equipment or if not included with the
replacement part.
Application of Safety Decals
Surface preparation is very important for the safety decals to properly adhere.
Grease, oil, and dirt must be removed and the surface must be smooth and
dry. After wiping the surface clean, use an ammonia-free window cleaner to
provide the best surface for decal adherence.
Most decals have a split backing which is meant to be removed from the split
outward. To apply decals, follow these steps:
1. Position the decal in the proper location and hold firmly over the
largest portion of the backing.
2. Use one hand to hold the decal in position. With the other hand,
carefully roll the loose end over and peel the backing outward.
When the backing is removed as shown in Figure 3 and with even
and gradual pulling, the decal will roll onto the surface smooth and
wrinkle free,
3. With the smallest portion of the decal attached, the repeat Step 2 for
the other half of the decal.
When the decal has been attached in place, use a cloth or soft paper towel
to burnish the decal onto the cleaned surface. Work gently from the middle
outwards to avoid creating any wrinkles and to remove any air bubbles.
