SAFETY SUMMARY SECTION
It is important that all operators of this machine are familiar with all of the safety aspects mentioned below
and have read the entire Operator’s Manual before operating the machine. Always keep a copy of this
manual with the machine. It is the responsibility of the operator of the machine to fully understand this
safety sheet. Remember that YOU are the key to safety. Good safety practices protect not only you
but also the people working with and around you. Keep in mind that this safety sheet is written for this
type of machine only. Practice all other usual and customary safe working precautions; and above all,
remember that safety is up to you.
The FINN HydroSeeder® is designed to mix and apply water, seed, fertilizer, agricultural lime and hydraulic
mulch to the prepared seedbed. The resultant slurry from mixing one or more of the above materials
may react causing harmful or deadly gasses within the tank. Heat, evaporation or extended emptying
period can/will accelerate the formation of these gasses. Please contact your supplier(s) of these slurry
components regarding their potential reactivity.
I. PRE-START EQUIPMENT CHECK (equipment
check is to be made with the engine off):
1. If you have a chassis
mounted unit, check devic-
es securing HydroSeeder®
to the truck or trailer
frame.
2. If HydroSeeder® is a trailer unit, check hitch and
hitch bolts, lights, brakes and all safety compo-
nents.
3. Make sure loading hatch bag cutter is in place and
secure.
4. Check that all guard railing is in place and secure.
5. Verify that all guards are in place.
6. With the ignition switch on, verify that the signal
horn is operating correctly.

inspect the slurry tank for foreign objects. Never
enter the tank without following the procedures
described in #3 of the Maintenance section in this
sheet.
8. Remove unnecessary objects (or material) from the
tank top.
