SYSTEM SAFETY
Reinke irrigation systems are designed with many electrical and mechanical safety features. However, each
operator must read and understand this and all other accompanying owners manuals for the safe and ecient
operation of your Reinke irrigation system. If this system is operated incorrectly, it can pose a safety threat to the
operator and others, including serious injury or death. is system is powered by high voltage electricity. Any
individual that will be engaging with the system in any way must read and fully understand the contents of this
manual. is includes both the basic operation instructions (such as starting, stopping, adjusting water applica-
tion amounts, and changing directions) as well as the safety obligations noted in this section.
In addition to the operational and safety information provided by this manual, you will also nd safety signs and
decals located throughout the system itself. For the safest experience possible, make sure you are able to locate
and recognize every safety sign and decal located on the system. roughout this manual, you will nd safety
information preceded by the words Caution, Warning, or Danger. ese will be marked with a hazard symbol as
shown below. Read each of these warnings closely, as they indicate potential hazards.
e Caution sign indicates that a situation, or action, may result in minor damage
to property or harm to individuals.
e Warning sign indicates that a situation, or action, may result in serious dam-
age to property, injury, or death.
Make sure you read and understand the operator’s manual BEFORE operating, or maintaining, the system. If
anything seems unclear, contact your local Reinke dealer.
Ensure that anyone else who operates the system reads and understands the operator’s manual.
Follow ALL safety guidelines on the system and in this manual. Please keep in mind that any unauthorized changes
made to the system could cause damage to that system.
DO NOT attempt to perform any maintenance procedures until the Reinke main control panel disconnect
switch and all pump and other disconnect switches are locked in the OFF position. Electrical component trou-
bleshooting and replacement should be performed by a certied Reinke Service Technician to ensure built-in
safety features remain intact. is also ensures the system remains compliant with the National Electric Code
and Reinke Manufacturing specications. Replace all protective guards and shields before restoring power to the
system.
e Danger sign indicates that a situation, or action, poses an immediate threat
that could result in severe injury or death.

LOCKOUT / TAGOUT
Refer to U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations (Standards - 29 CFR) Typical minimal lockout procedures
- 1910.147 App A, or applicable national, state or local regulations, for additional information.
On the following pages, you will nd the typical minimal lockout procedures, as according to U.S. Occupational
Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations. is procedure is used whenever maintenance or servicing
is done on machines or equipment. It shall be used to ensure that the machine or equipment is stopped,
isolated from all potentially hazardous energy sources, and locked out before anyone performs any servicing
or maintenance where the unexpected start-up of the machine or equipment, or release of stored energy, could
cause injury. When the energy isolating devices are not lockable, tagout may be used. Below is the sequence of
Lockout:
1. Notify all aected employees that servicing or maintenance is required on a machine, or equipment, and
that the machine, or equipment, must be shut down and locked out to perform the servicing or
maintenance.
2. e authorized employee shall refer to the company procedure to identify the type and magnitude of the
energy that the machine or equipment utilizes, understand the hazards of the energy, and know the
methods to control the energy.
3. If the machine, or equipment, is operating, shut it down by the normal stopping procedure.
e movement of an electrically powered, gear-driven, irrigation system is relatively slow. Moving parts are
exposed and may present a potential hazard. erefore, keep all equipment, vehicles, people, livestock, etc. out of
the system’s path.
DO NOT allow anyone to ride, or climb, on the system unless they are qualied and required to do so for main-
tenance purposes.
e tower steps have been provided for access to the tower control boxes only. ey are not intended for access
to the span. For instance, should the sprinkler heads require service, use a ladder to reach them from the ground.
DO NOT start the system until all electrical equipment has been
properly installed and grounded by a qualied electrician. Failing to
do so could result in serious injury or death. Ensure that your con-
tractor has grounded the system as required by the National Electri-
cal Code and by all applicable local electrical codes.
When towing a system from eld to eld, avoid ditches, rough
terrain, overhead power lines, etc. e ground wire MUST be
re-attached to the ground rod, or concrete-encased electrode, and
checked for electrical integrity each time the system is towed.

4. De-activate the energy isolating device(s).
5. Lock out the energy isolating device(s) with assigned individual locks.
6. Stored or residual energy (such as that in capacitors, springs, elevated system
members, rotating y-wheels, hydraulic systems, air, gas, steam, water pressure,
etc.) must be dissipated or restrained by methods such as grounding,
repositioning, blocking, bleeding down, etc.
7. Ensure that the system, or equipment, is disconnected from the energy sources by rst
checking that no personnel are exposed, then verify the isolation of the system, or
equipment, by operating the push button or other normal operating controls or
by testing to make certain the system, or equipment, will not operate. CAUTION:
Return operating controls to the neutral or OFF position aer verifying the isolation of the equipment.
8. e system, or equipment, is now locked out.
Restoring Equipment to Service
When the servicing, or maintenance, is completed and the machine, or equipment, is ready to return to normal
operating condition, the following steps shall be taken.
1. Check the machine, or equipment, and the immediate area around the machine to ensure that
nonessential items have been removed and that the machine, or equipment, components are
operationally intact.
2. Check the work area to ensure that all employees have been safely positioned or removed from the area.
3. Verify that the controls are in neutral.
4. Remove the lockout devices and reenergize the machine or equipment. Note: e removal of some forms
of blocking may require reenergization of the machine before safe removal.
5. Notify aected employees that the servicing, or maintenance, is completed and the machine, or
equipment, is ready for use.

Exercise caution when handling fuel near systems equipped with combustion engine-driven generators and
pumps.
Keep away from the system during thunderstorms or other severe weather conditions. e system is grounded
and is probably the highest object in the eld, making it a good lightning receptor.

4System Safety
Be sure protective guards are installed on all belts and driveshas of ancillary equipment such as combustion
engines, electric motors, pumps, etc.
If you suspect a short circuit, or the system is not working correctly, DO NOT touch the system and keep others
away from it. Call your Reinke service technician. Electrical component troubleshooting and replacement should
be performed by a certied Reinke Service Technician to ensure built-in safety features remain intact. is also
ensures the system remains compliant with the National Electric Code and Reinke Manufacturing Specications.
Avoid any bodily contact with high pressure water streams from sprinklers and end guns.
Do not operate the system with water when temperatures are below 40°F (4.5°C). is can cause structural dam-
age to the system. Damage from freeze-up is not covered under warranty.
Keep away from elds where the system is chemigating. Make sure the applied chemical and water does not blow
or dri past the area of intended operation. A check valve must be installed between the pivot center and the
pump to prevent the mixture of water and chemical from siphoning back into the irrigation water source. Com-
ply with all local, state, and federal regulations.
Maintain adequate crop clearance. Allowing the systems trussing to drag in the crop, can cause structural dam-
age to the system.
DO NOT oversize fuses. Fuses are sized for a specic circuit. It is very important to make sure you have the
proper fuse size in place before initially starting the system and when replacing fuses.

In most states, it is unlawful to spray water on state and county roadways. is is a serious hazard and must not
be allowed.
If your system is equipped with any auto-stop or auto-reverse mechanism, make sure they are working correctly
and a tower barricade is properly installed. Reinke disclaims any and all liability (including any liability cre-
ated pursuant to the Irrigation Systems Warranty) with regard to damage to the irrigation system, or to other
property, or personal injury or death, caused by improper installation or maintenance of Reinke-supplied
tower auto-reverse or auto-stop switches or tower barricades, or by use of customer-supplied barricades.
Drive shas may start without warning. Keep away from drive shas to prevent clothing or limbs from being
entangled, resulting in severe injury.
