The purpose of this section is to alert operating and maintenance personnel to the possible dangers of this
type of equipment. Serious injury and/or equipment damage could result from not heeding these safety
precautions.
BEFOREOPERATINGEQUIPMENT:
1) Any personnel working directly with or on this equipment should read this manual before
proceeding with equipment use.
2) Electricians should familiarize themselves with the electrical drawings before initial start-up
of equipment.
3) Other appropriate operating and maintenance personnel should familiarize themselves
with mechanical layout and general arrangement drawings before start-up of equipment.
4) Determine location of all emergency switches.
5) Be sure all guards are in place and observe all warning signs.
6) Check oil level in all motors.
7) Be sure electrical equipment is free of anyaccumulation of water.
8) Be sure all personnel are clear of operating mechanisms before connecting air.

2) Do not open junction boxes or control panels unless you are a qualified electrician. Be
sure power is off. Except when electricians are performing maintenance, electrical
enclosures and junction boxes should always be securely closed.
3) Stop machine and disconnect power supply before servicing or repairing. Maintenance
and adjustments must be performed with all power supply disconnected unless otherwise
specified in this manual.
4) Do not attempt to defeat any safetyswitches. Serious injurycould result.

6) Gear motors will get warm to the touch and should not cause concern for equipment
reliability and operation. A temperature rise is normal per new NEMA specifications.
7) If additional wire runs are added to any junction box or control panel, wiring practice
should be such as to maintain prevailing electrical hazard classification.
8) High-pressure air systems are dangerous. Do not service or troubleshoot systems with air
supply on. Be sure to bleed off any trapped air before working on components since it is
possible to have high pressures trapped in airlines and cylinders, etc.
9) Keep fingers, hands, feet, etc.; out of path of pneumaticallyoperated components.
10) Safety glasses should be worn in equipment area.

7OF10
Operator dumps a broken bag into the packer hopper. Operator places
empty valve bag on fill spout. Operator pulls the manual bag clamp down to
clamp the bag to fill spout and at the same time starts the filling process
starting the auger.
The auger continues to run until the operator sees that the hopper is totally
empty. Operator releases the bag clamp, which stops the filling process.
The operator removes bag from fill spout.
NOTE: This machine does not have a scale therefore the weight is
determined strictly by time an amount of material put in hopper at the
beginning.
WARNING: NEVER REMOVE INSIDE GRATE WORK WITH POWER ON
AND OR OPERATE MACHINE WITH GRATE OUT.
