Thank you for choosing a GSI/Air-

excellent performance and service for
many years.
This manual describes the instal-
lation and operation of the Grain
Spreader. It is designed to spread
grain and fines evenly throughout the
bin.
The principal concern of the GSI
Group, Inc. ("GSI") is your safety and
the safety of others associated with
grain handling equipment. This
manual is written to help you under-
stand safe operating procedures, and
some of the problems that may be
encountered by the operator or other
personnel.
As owner and/or operator, it is
your responsibility to know what re-
quirements, hazards and precautions
exist, and to inform all personnel
associated with the equipment, or
who are in the area. Avoid any alter-
ations to the equipment. Such alter-
ations may produce a very danger-
ous situation, where serious injury or
death may occur.
GSI DOES NOT WARRANT ANY ROOF DAMAGE CAUSED
BY EXCESSIVE VACUUM OR INTERNAL PRESSURE FROM
FANS OR OTHER AIR MOVING SYSTEMS. ADEQUATE
VENTILATION AND/OR "MAKEUP AIR" DEVICES SHOULD
BE PROVIDED FOR ALL POWERED AIR HANDLING SYS-
TEMS. GSI DOES NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF DOWN-
WARD FLOW SYSTEMS (SUCTION). SEVERE ROOF DAM-
AGE CAN RESULT FROM ANY BLOCKAGE OF AIR PAS-
SAGES. RUNNING FANS DURING HIGH HUMIDITY/COLD
WEATHER CONDITIONS CAN CAUSE AIR EXHAUST OR
INTAKE PORTS TO FREEZE.
