SAFETY FIRST
“A careful operator is the best insurance against an accident”
(National Safety Council)
Most accidents can be prevented if the operator:
•
Fully understands how the machine functions
•
Can anticipate situations which may produce problems
•
Can make necessary corrections before problems develop
THIS SYMBOL MEANS
ATTENTION!
BECOME ALERT!
YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
The American Society of Agricultural Engineers has adopted the Universal Safety Alert Symbol as a way to
identify areas of potential danger if the equipment is not operated correctly (See Figure 3). Please be alert
whenever you see this symbol in the manuals or on your Grinder Mixer.
Art’s-Way Manufacturing Co., Inc. strives to make our equipment as safe as possible. The Art’s-Way JR Series
Grinder Mixer conforms to applicable safety standards at the time of manufacturing. A safety conscious
equipment operator makes an effective accident-prevention program complete.
Safety features and instructions for the Grinder Mixer are detailed in the section of this Operator
’s Manual. It is
the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all operators read and understand the manual before they are
allowed to operate the Grinder Mixer. (Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations
1928.57.)
