PERSONAL SAFETY

ƒ Personal safety as well as other people's is
one of our major concerns in the design and
development of a machine. However, every year
there are a lot of accidents that could have been
prevented. They happen mainly due to lack of
attention and observation of safety rules during
the operation. Read this manual carefully and
keep alert all the time.
ƒ Never operate the machine if you are under
the effect of alcoholic beverages, medicine or
drugs that might harm your alert state or your
coordination.
ƒ Wear Personal Protective Equipment – PPE
– when you operate the machine. Prolonged
exposure to noise might cause harm or hearing
loss.
ƒ Dress appropriately when you operate the
machine – tying long hair and not wearing
loose-fitting clothes is highly recommended.
Take off rings, necklaces and other objects that
might get stuck in the machine parts or moving
components. Loose-fitting clothes and long hair
might get caught by mechanisms in operation.
ƒ Always keep your hands at a safe distance from
moving parts.
ƒ Do not enter or allow anyone to enter the
bag, since there is risk of imprisonment and
suffocation.
ƒ Never attempt to clean or clear the endless screw
when the machine is turned-on. This procedure
can only be performed when the PTO is off, the
ignition key is removed from the tractor and the
machine is completely stationary.
ƒ Never put your hands in the grinding mill when
the machine is on.
