WARNING: DO NOT STEP UP ON ANY PART OF THE FORAGE BOX AT ANY TIME. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

When finished unloading, reduce engine speed to idle and disengage the tractor PTO or hydraulics. Pull the forage box straight ahead to pull the rear door away from the unloaded pile of forage. Gravity will allow the rear door to swing shut. The rear door latches will engage to secure it closed. Visibly observe that rear discharge door properly latches close.

The unloading process described is to be performed by the operator alone. This will eliminate unexpected “start-ups” and minimize other hazards that could result by more than one person in control. If the forage box should become clogged, shut off all power to the forage box and wait for all motion to stop. Disconnect PTO drive shaft or hydraulic supply and return hoses and then clean out the machine.

Never use “live” power to aid in the clean-out of a clogged machine. If any mechanism fails, move the for- age box to a safe work area and then repair the mecha- nism before proceeding with unloading of the forage. If repairs require removal of forage from inside of the for- age box, then remove the rear discharge door (bolted hinges on top of each side) and then empty the forage manually by hand through the rear opening.

DANGER: NEVER ENTER THE FORAGE BOX OR FRONT UNLOADING UNIT FOR ANY REASON WITHOUT FIRST DISCONNECTING THE PTO DRIVE SHAFT OR HYDRAULIC HOSES FROM POWER SUPPLY. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERI- OUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

Never enter the forage box for any reason if there is any possibility of power being applied to the unit.
