Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains, can become
entangled in the coring drum. These items could then swing outside the
housing at great velocities. Such a situation is extremely hazardous. Inspect
the area for such objects before coring. Removing any like object from the
site. Never allow the rotating core drum to contact such items.
Remove from the sweeping area all property that could be damaged by flying
debris.
Use extreme care and maintain minimum ground speed when transporting on
hillside, over rough ground and when operating close to ditches or fences. Be
careful when turning sharp corners.
Reduce speed on slopes and sharp turns to minimize tipping or loss of
control. Be careful when changing directions on slopes. Do not start or stop
suddenly on slopes. Avoid operation on steep slopes.
Before leaving the operator's area for any reason – lower the minicor-3 to the
ground, stop the power unit engine, set the brakes and remove the key from
the ignition.
When coring, adhere to all government rules, local laws and other
professional guidelines for your coring application.
Never raise the minicor-3 more than a few feet off the ground. The minicor-3
can tip back or the prime mover can tip over causing death or serious injury.
When maneuvering close to buildings or passing through narrow areas, be
sure to allow sufficient clearance for the power unit and minicor-3 attachment.
Drive slowly.
Keep hands and feet away from core drum pivot points and from under the
core drum
Keep alert and watch the rear as well as the front when driving the power
unit.
