Safety Information

While Morse Manufacturing Co. drum handling equipment is 

engineered for safety and efficiency, a high degree of responsibility 

must be placed upon the machine operator to follow safe practices, 

based primarily on common sense, upon which true safety

personal injury or property damage. Observe the same precautions 

as with similar machinery where carelessness in operating or 

maintenance is hazardous to personnel. Carefully read the safety 

precautions below and throughout this manual.

Review the Material Safety Data Sheet(s) for the material(s) in 

the drum(s) and take all necessary precautions. Safety shoes, 

work gloves, hard hat and other personal protective devices are 

recommended.

Prior to initial use, inspect all moving parts and test rotation of hand 

wheel and saddle assembly. Inspect saddle assembly for proper 

operation. Perform necessary load test, inspections, operator 

training, etc.
