2.7  OPERATING SAFETY

• Make sure that anyone who will be using 

the bin or working on or around it reads and 
understands all the operating, maintenance 
and safety information in the owner's manual.

• Keep all bystanders, especially children, away 

from the bin when loading or unloading is 
being done, or when authorized personnel are 
carrying out maintenance work.

• Do not crawl under the opened unloading 

chute to inspect for a suspected blockage. 
This is an unsafe practice. Caked or impacted 
product could suddenly break loose and cause 
facial and/or eye injury.

• Do not attempt to enter the bin through the 

top loading hatch. This opening is designed 
for loading the bin only and not for human 
entry.

• Use the optional roof manhole only for entry 

into the bin and only when the bin is empty for 
cleaning purposes.

• If you enter the bin, make sure that there is 

no possibility that either loading or unloading 
auger could be started up. Lock out the power 
sources for all auxiliary equipment and have a 
responsible, trained person close at hand to 
keep unauthorized individuals away from the 
work area.

• Enter the empty bin with extreme 

caution. Wear protective clothing, 
goggles and a properly filtered 
respirator mask to guard against 
chemical vapour or residual dust.

Connect a safety line to yourself and have a 
responsible, trained person outside, holding 
the line, in case of an emergency.

• Do not enter the bin to break loose impacted, 

caked or bridged material. You could fall 
through the bridged material if you are trying 
to clear it from the top. Or have it cave in on 
you from the bottom. Either situation could 
result in you being buried in the falling material 
and suffocating.

• If material is bridged or caked causing a 

blockage. Use a long pole, a length of board 
to break the material loose.

• Be very careful when climbing up or 

down the exterior ladder. Remove 
excess mud or other material from 
your footwear that could cause 
slipping.

• The optional roof manhole should not be used 

to load or unload material. This will cause 
the material to be off center, either piling up 
or emptying unevenly to one side of the bin. 
This uneven stressing of the bin could cause 
structural damage.
