•
Keep hands, feet, hair, clothing, and jewelry away from all moving and/or rotating
parts.
•
Inspect the machine before operating. Ensure condition of belts, gearboxes,
drivelines, etc. are sufficient for operation and repair or replace if necessary.

without direct contact.

not use hands or feet to clean out intake hopper.

•
The machine is closely balanced. Do not move grain unless the intake end is
anchored or the discharge end is supported to prevent upending.

conveyor to prevent tipping or upending.
