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!

• 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.
Following Safety Instructions
Before Servicing
• 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 and service parts approved by
the manufacturer.
• Always shut towing vehicle engine and hydraulic power unit engine off and remove
key before servicing the implement.
• Avoid personal attire such as loose fitting clothing, shoestrings, drawstrings, pants
cuffs, long hair, etc., that may become entangled in moving parts.
• Never attempt to operate implement unless you are in driver’s seat.
• Always make certain everyone and everything is clear of the machine before
beginning operation.
• Verify that all safety shields are in place, and properly secured.
• Ensure that all applicable safety decals are installed and legible.
Before Operating

Box Auger — Safety
1-5
• Regulate speed to field conditions. Maintain complete control at all times.
• Never lubricate equipment when in operation.
• Keep away from overhead power lines. Electrical shock can cause serious injury or
death.
• Use extreme care when operating close to ditches, fences, or on hillsides.
• Do not leave towing vehicle unattended with engine running.
• Seed being transported may contain seed treatment. Read and follow all requirements for
personal protective equipment and first aid as outlined on seed tags.
During Operation
Pressurized Oil
• Relieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines or servicing hydraulic system. See
hydraulic power unit manual for procedure to relieve pressure.
• High-pressure fluids 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 fluids.
• 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 fires, personal injury, and environmental damage.
• Route hoses and lines carefully to prevent premature failure due to kinking and rubbing against
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:
o End fittings damaged, displaced, or leaking.
o Outer covering chafed/cut or wire reinforcing exposed.
o Outer covering ballooning locally.
o Evidence of kinking or crushing of the flexible part of a hose.

Preparing for Emergencies
Wearing Protective Equipment
• Keep a first aid kit and properly rated fire extinguisher nearby.
• Keep emergency numbers for fire, rescue, and poison control personnel near the
phone.
• Wear clothing and personal protective equipment appropriate for the job.
• Wear steel-toed shoes when operating.
• Wear hearing protection when exposed to loud noises.
• Do not wear additional hearing impairing devices such as radio headphones, etc.
