2.3 EQUIPMENT SAFETY GUIDELINES
• Safety of the workers and bystanders is one
of the main concerns when designing and
developing this bin. However, every year
many accidents occur which could have been
avoided by a few seconds of thought, and a
more careful approach to handling equipment.
• Do not allow personnel to use this bin until
they have read this manual. They should
have a thorough understanding of the safety
precautions.
Review the safety instructions with all users
annually.
• In order to provide a better view,
certain photographs or illustrations
in this manual may show an
assembly with safety guards
removed.
Equipment should never be
operated in this condition. All
guards must be in place. If removal
becomes necessary for repairs,
replace the guard prior to use.
• This equipment is dangerous to children and
persons unfamiliar with its operation.
The operator must be responsible, properly
trained and physically able. You should be
familiar with farm machinery in general.
• Never exceed the limits of a piece of machinery.
If its ability to do a job, or to do so safely, is in
question - DO NOT TRY IT.
• Do not modify the equipment in any way.
Unauthorized modification result in serious
injury or death and may impair the function
and life of the equipment.
2.4 SAFETY DECALS
• Keep safety decals clean/legible at all times.
• Replace safety decals that are missing or have
become illegible.
• All safety decals have a part number in the
lower right hand corner. Use this part number
when ordering replacements.
• Safety decals are available from your authorized
distributor, dealer’s parts department or from
the factory.
2.4.1 Safety Decal Application:
1. Be sure the application area is clean and
dry. Ensure the surrounding temperature is
above 10°C (50°F).
- Remove all dirt, grease, wax from the
surface.
- Clean with a non-ammonia based cleaner.
- Wipe the clean surface with isopropyl
alcohol on paper towel, and allow to dry.
2. Determine the exact position before you
remove the backing paper.
3. Peel a small portion of the split backing paper.
4. Align the decal over the specified area. Use
a squeegee to carefully press the small
portion, with the exposed adhesive backing,
into place.
5. Slowly peel back the remaining paper and
carefully smooth the rest of the decal into
place.
6. Small air pockets can be pierced with a pin
and smoothed out using the squeegee, or a
piece of sign backing paper.
