2.1. GENERAL SAFETY MK 100/130 PLUS X91’ - 111’
830260 R0
2.1. GENERAL SAFETY
Important: The general safety section includes instructions that apply to all safety practices.
Any instructions specific to a certain safety practice (e.g., assembly safety), can
be found in the appropriate section. Always read the complete instructional
sections and not just these safety summaries before doing anything with the
equipment.
YOU are responsible for the SAFE use and maintenance of your equipment.
YOU must ensure that you and anyone else who is going to work around the
equipment understands all procedures and related SAFETY information
contained in this manual.
Remember, YOU are the key to safety. Good safety practices not only protect
you, but also the people around you. Make these practices a working part of your
safety program.
• It is the equipment owner and the operator's responsibility to read and under-
stand ALL safety instructions, safety decals, and manuals and follow them
before assembling, operating, or maintaining the equipment. All accidents
can be avoided.
• Equipment owners must give instructions and review the information initially
and anually with all personnel before allowing them to operate this product.
Untrained users/operators expose themselves and bystanders to possible
serious injury or death.
• Use this equipment for its intended purposes only.
• Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized modification may
impair the function and/or safety, and could affect the life of the equipment.
Any modification to the equipment voids the warranty.
• Do not allow children, spectators, or bystanders within the work area.
• Have a first-aid kit available for use should the need arise, and know how to
use it.
• Provide a fire extinguisher for use in case of an accident. Store in a highly vis-
ible place.
• Wear appropriate protective gear. This list includes, but
is not limited to:
• a hard hat
•gloves
• protective shoes with slip-resistant soles
• protective goggles

• Follow good shop practices:
• keep service area clean and dry
• be sure electrical outlets and tools are properly
grounded
• use adequate light for the job at hand
• Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY!
2.2. ASSEMBLY SAFETY
• Read through the instructions to get to know the sub-assemblies and hard-
ware that make up the equipment.
• Do not take chances with safety. The components are large, heavy, and can
be hard to handle. Always use the proper tools, stands, jacks, and hoists for
the job.
• Always have 2 or more people assembling the equipment. Because of the
weight, do not attempt assembly alone.
2.3. OPERATION SAFETY
• Have another trained person nearby who can shut down the auger in case of
accident. Always work with a second trained person around augers.
• Do not operate with any of the safety guards removed.
• Keep body, hair, and clothing away from moving parts. Stay away from intake
during operation.
• Inspect lift cable before using auger. Replace if frayed or damaged. Make
sure it is seated properly in the cable sheaves and that cable clamps are
secure.
• Operate auger on level ground free of debris. If ground is uneven, anchor the
auger to prevent tipping or upending.
• Augers are not insulated. Keep away from electrical lines. Electrocution can
occur without direct contact.
• Support the discharge end and/or anchor the intake end before operating to
prevent upending.
• Do not use auger as a hoist.
• Empty auger before raising or lowering.
• Lower auger at completion of operation or when not in use. Auger could drop
rapidly in case of cable break or hydraulic failure (where applicable).
• Do not operate auger with the service or cleanout doors open or unlatched.
• Do not get on or beneath auger when raising or lowering intake hitch jack, or
when auger is supported by hitch jack.

• Wear proper hand and face protection when searching for hydraulic leaks.
Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury
like gangrene. In case of accident, see a doctor immediately.
• Fluid leaks in the hydraulic lift cylinders or hoses will allow the auger to lower
inadvertently. Repair all leaks and breaks immediately. Rupture could cause
damage and/or personal injury.
• A hydraulic lift is faster than a conventional hand crank—always clear area of
personnel before raising or lowering.
• Do not disconnect hydraulic couplers when hydraulic system is pressurized.
For the correct procedure, consult this manual or your tractor manual.
• Relieve pressure before unhooking hydraulic lines.
• Inspect hydraulic fittings and hoses for damage on a daily basis. Repair if
damaged.
• Ensure that the hydraulic line is properly connected and secure.
• Keep hydraulic line away from moving parts.
• Clean connections before connecting to equipment.

Important: Use a type of hitch pin (see Figure 4.2) that will not allow auger to separate from
towing vehicle.
3. Ensure auger is on reasonably level ground when raising, lowering, or
positioning.
4. Before raising or positioning auger, make sure that entire area in line of
travel, both on the ground and overhead, is clear of any obstructions or
electrical wires.
Important: Because of the many different kinds of tractor hydraulic systems, the quick-
connect coupler must be supplied by the owner. Please consult your tractor
manual or dealer for the proper coupler.
5. Before connecting hose, wipe off quick-connect coupler on auger and tractor.
6. Connect hydraulic hoses, ensure connections are tight. Check for leaks,
binding, flattening, kinks, or wear.
Important: Wheels must be free to move when raising or lowering auger.
7. If the auger must be raised for positioning:
a. Check that valve on hose to lift cylinder is open.
b. Raise auger to the desired height.
c. Close hose valve (after auger is positioned).
8. Connect hydraulic hoses, ensure connections are tight. Check for leaks,
binding, flattening, kinks, or wear.
Important: The auger features a hydraulic lift system that only needs a small amount of
hydraulic oil to raise the auger. This is done by pumping oil into and out of the
upper chamber of the cylinder as the auger is raised and lowered. For this
system to work, the tractor must be running and the down lever must be fully
engaged as auger is lowered.
CAUTION
If auger wheels are partially or fully buried in
snow or grain, failure to clear the area around
thewheelsbeforemovingmaycausedamage
to the auger or result in serious injury.
NOTICE
Dirt in the hydraulic system can damage the cylinder o-
rings, causing leakage and the possible failure of the
system and personal injury.
