General Hazard Information
No accident-prevention program can be successful without the wholehearted cooperation of
the person who is directly responsible for the operation of the equipment.
A large number of accidents can be prevented only by the operator anticipating the result
before the accident is caused and doing something about it. No power-driven equipment,
whether it be transportation or processing, whether it be on the highway, in the field, or in
the industrial plant, can be safer than the person who is at the controls. If accidents are
to be prevented--and they can be prevented--it will be done by the operators who accept
the full measure of their responsibility.
It is true that the designer, the manufacturer, and the safety engineer can help; and they will
help, but their combined efforts can be wiped out by a single careless act of the operator.
It is said that, “the best kind of a safety device is a careful operator.” We, at Unverferth
Mfg. Co., Inc. ask that you be that kind of operator.
REMEMBER:
THINK SAFETY
A CAREFUL OPERATOR IS THE
BEST INSURANCE AGAINST AN
ACCIDENT!

Follow Safety Instructions
• Read and understand this operator’s manual before operating.
• All machinery should be operated only by trained and authorized personnel.
• To prevent machine damage, use only attachments approved by the manufacturer.
• Always shut towing vehicle engine and hydraulic power unit engine off & remove
key before servicing the implement.
• Avoid personal attire such as loose tting clothing, shoestrings, drawstrings, pants cuffs, long
hair, etc. that may become entangled in moving parts.
• Do not allow anyone to ride on the equipment. Make sure everyone is clear
before operating machine or towing vehicle.
• Never attempt to operate the implement unless you are in the driver’s seat.
• Never enter a cart containing grain. Flowing grain traps and suffocates victims in
seconds.
Before Operating
• Do not stand between towing vehicle and implement during hitching.
• Alwaysmakecertaineveryoneandeverythingisclearofthemachinebeforebeginningoperation.
• Verify that all safety shields are in place and properly secured.
• Ensure that all applicable safety decals are installed and legible.
• Secure drawbar pin with safety lock and lock tractor drawbar in fixed position.
Before Servicing
• Avoid working under an implement; however, if it becomes absolutely
unavoidable, make sure the implement is safely blocked.
• Ensure that all applicable safety decals are installed and legible.
• To prevent personal injury or death always ensure that there are people who remain outside
the cart to assist the person working inside the cart, and that all safe work place practices are
followed.Thereisrestrictedmobilityandlimitedexitpathswhenworkinginsidetheimplement.
• Explosive separation of a tire and rim can cause serious injury or death. Only properly trained
personnel should attempt to service a tire and wheel assembly.

Before Transporting
During Transport
• Comply with all laws governing highway safety when moving machinery.
• Use transport lights as required by all laws to adequately warn operators of other vehicles
• Use good judgment when transporting equipment on highways. Regulate speed to road
conditions and maintain complete control.
• Maximum speed of implement should never exceed 20 mph. Do not exceed 10 mph during
off-highway travel.
• Slow down before making sharp turns to avoid tipping. Drive slowly over rough ground and
side slopes.
• Do not transport grain cart on roads while loaded.
• It is probable that this implement is taller, wider and longer than the towing vehicle. Become
aware of and avoid all obstacles and hazards in the travel path of the equipment, such as
power lines, ditches, etc.
• Securetransportchainstotowingvehiclebeforetransporting.DONOTtransportwithoutchains.
• Check for proper function of all available transport lights. Make sure that all reectors are
clean and in place on machine. Make sure that the SMV emblem and SIS decal are visible to
approaching traffic.

Driveline Safety
• Do not allow children near equipment that is running or engaged.
• Do not exceed 1000 RPM PTO speed.
• DisengagethePTO,stopthetractorengine,andremovethekeyfromtheignitionbeforemaking
inspections, or performing maintenance and repairs.
• Inspectthedriveline,quickdisconnect,overloadshear-boltlimiterorclutch,andshieldingoften.
Repair immediately. Use replacement parts and attaching hardware equivalent to the original
equipment. Only alterations described in this manual for overall length adjustment are allowed.
Any other alteration is prohibited.
• Avoid excessively long hardware or exposed and protruding parts which can snag and cause
entanglement.
• Lubricate the driveline as recommended in the Maintenance section.
• Keep hoses, wiring, ropes, etc. from dangling too close to the driveline.
• Installthedrivelineand shields accordingtothe recommendedlengthsandattaching methods
with the recommended hardware. The driveline shield should rotate independently a full rotation
and telescope freely. The retaining chain must be secured to the implement safety shield.
• Adjust the drawbar to the height recommended in the tractor set up section.
• Be careful not to hit the driveline with the tractor tires when turning.
• Check the length of the telescoping members to insure the driveline will not bottom out or
separate when turning and/or going over rough terrain.
• ProperextendedandcollapsedlengthsofthetelescopingPTOshaftmustbeverifiedbeforefirst

may become uncoupled during operation and cause serious injury or death from contact with
uncontrolled flailing of the PTO shaft assembly components.

Pressurized Oil
• Relieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines from tractor, loosening any hydraulic
fittings or servicing hydraulic system. See hydraulic power unit manual for procedure to relieve
pressure.
• High-pressure uids can penetrate the skin and cause serious injury or death.
Use cardboard or wood to detect leaks in the hydraulic system. Seek medical
treatment immediately if injured by high-pressure uids.
• Hydraulic system must be purged of air before operating to prevent serious injury or death.
• Do not bend or strike high-pressure lines. Do not install bent or damaged tubes or hoses.
• Repair all oil leaks. Leaks can cause res, personal injury, and environmental damage.
• Routehosesandlinescarefullytopreventprematurefailureduetokinkingandrubbingagainst
other parts. Make sure that all clamps, guards and shields are installed correctly.
• Check hydraulic hoses and tubes carefully. Replace components as necessary if any of the
following conditions are found:
- End fittings damaged, displaced, or leaking.
- Outer covering chafed/cut or wire reinforcing exposed.
- Outer covering ballooning locally.
- Evidence of kinking or crushing of the flexible part of a hose.
