OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When the mixer is in operation it has many moving parts which could cause severe injury or death to persons coming in contact with these parts. To help avoid serious accidents, the following guidelines should always be followed:
1.BE SURE ALL SAFETY SHIELDS are in place before operating, including driveline shields.
2.NEVER PUT ARMS OR FEET INSIDE unit or discharge door opening, nor climb on or in the mixer while it is running. NEVER allow anyone to position themselves over or near the top of the mixer while it is running. Rotating reel, augers, and sprockets can grab clothing or create pinch points which can cause severe injury or death to the operator or bystanders. Always lock out the power so that the mixer cannot be accidentally turned on while inspecting, servicing, repairing, or cleaning mixer.
3.NEVER HAND FEED MATERIALS into mixer while it is running. Rotating reel and augers inside mixer may not be visible from the loading point, and may cut or grab hands, clothing, or material being loaded, causing severe injury. Always stop mixer and lock out the power before hand loading materials.
4.NEVER ATTEMPT TO RELEASE JAMMED MATERIALS OR CLEAN MATERIALS from any area of the mixer or discharge chute without stopping mixer and locking out the power first. Moving parts can be hidden by materials, and stopped parts can start unexpectedly, causing severe injury. Always stop mixer and lock out the power before attempting to remove jammed material or to clean. Be aware that the spring loaded reel arms can spring back unexpectedly, causing injury.
5.DO NOT ALLOW OPERATION of this unit by inexperienced and unqualified people. Keep all unquali- fied people away from mixer during operation. Operators of this unit must be alert and use good judgement at all times.
6.DO NOT wear loose or floppy clothing while operating this unit. Loose clothing may become entangled in moving machinery.
7.BE SURE the inside of the mixer is clear of any obstructions and that all shields are in place before operating. Repair or replace any damaged or missing shielding. Exposed sprockets and chains due to missing shielding can grab hands and clothing and cause severe injury or death.
8.SHOULD A PROBLEM OCCUR during operation of mixer, always stop mixer and lock out the power before investigating problem. If mixer power has not been locked out, the mixer may start unexpectedly, causing severe injury or death.
9.USE CAUTION WHEN WORKING AROUND THE DISCHARGE AREA. Never reach into discharge area without first locking out power. Moving parts can be hidden by material, and stopped parts can start unexpectedly, causing severe injury.
