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. This machine is equipped with two lifting devices;
forklift channels and a lift ring. Do NOT lift unit
with any water or material in it. The lifting devices
are designed to carry only the empty weight of the
machine approximately 1050 lbs. (476 kg).
2. Check devices securing HydroSeeder® to the truck
or trailer frame.
3. If the HydroSeeder® is
mounted to a trailer, check
hitch and hitch bolts, safety
chains, lights, brakes and
breakaway switch. Verify
that the hitch ball is the
correct size for the cou-
pler.
4. Verify that all guards are
in place.
5. By carefully looking
down through the load-
ing hatch, inspect the
slurry tank for foreign
objects. Never enter
the tank without fol-
lowing the procedures
described in #3 of the
Maintenance section in
this sheet.
6. Make sure no one is working on or inside the
machine. Signal “All Clear” before starting the
engine.
7. Inspect all hydraulic hoses for cracks, bulges or
damage. If hoses are bad replace immediately.
8. Inspect all discharge hoses for cracks, bulges or
damage. If hoses are bad
replace immediately.
II. MACHINE OPERATION:
1. Always wear safety gog-
gles when operating the
machine. Other safety
attire such as safety shoes,
ear protection, gloves, hard
hats, dust masks, etc. should be worn as required by
warning decals on machine, operator’s manuals or
job site requirements. Remove rings, watches, etc.
Avoid loose fitting cloth-
ing that may get caught in
rotating machinery.
2. Do not operate the machine
without all guards in place.
3. Do not load unit while in
transit. Load only when
parked and unit is as level
as possible. Take care not
to drop pens, lighters, etc.
or pieces of paper or plas-
tic bags into the tank, as
these objects might plug
the slurry system. Should any object be dropped
into the tank, do NOT reach into the tank to retrieve
the foreign object. See #3 under Maintenance
before allowing any personnel to enter the tank.
