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
• hearing protection
• For Powered Equipment: before servicing, adjusting, or repairing powered
equipment, unplug, place all controls in neutral or off position, stop the engine
or motor, remove ignition key or lock out power source, and wait for all mov-
ing parts to stop.

30260 R0 9
• 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.

2.4. PTO SAFETY
• Never use a PTO driveline without a rotating shield in good working order.
• Ensure PTO driveline is securely attached at both ends before operating.
• Before starting tractor, turn power to PTO to the off position (where applica-
ble).
• Keep body, hair, and clothing away from rotating PTO driveline.
• Ensure the driveline shields turn freely on driveline.
• Do not exceed operating speed of 540 rpm.
• Keep u-joint angles small and equal. Do not exceed recommended operating
length for PTO driveline.
