Hot steam and temperatures can cause burns
When the steam generator is switched on, it produces hot steam that
comes out of it and the hay chest. Before you open the safety cap of
the steam generator, allow it to cool down.
Areas of the hay chest, for example the manifold spikes, can get very hot.
Take care when you steam forage and unload it.
