2.2 EQUIPMENT SAFETY
GUIDELINES

1. Safety of the operator and bystanders is one of

the main concerns in designing and developing a
machine. However, every year many accidents oc­cur which could have been avoided by a few sec­onds of thought and a more careful approach to
handling equipment. You, the operator, can avoid
many accidents by observing the following pre­cautions in this section. To avoid personal injury or
death, study the following precautions and insist
those working with you, or for you, follow them.

2. In order to provide a better view, certain photo-

graphs or illustrations in this manual may show an
assembly with a safety shield removed. However,
equipment should never be operated in this con­dition. Keep all shields in place. If shield removal
becomes necessary for repairs, replace the shield
prior to use.

3. Replace any safety sign or instruction sign that is

not readable or is missing. Location of such safety
signs is indicated in this manual.

4. Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs which

can hinder alertness or coordination while oper­ating this equipment. Consult your doctor about
operating this machine while taking prescription
medications.

5. Under no circumstances should young chil-

dren be allowed to work with this equipment.
Do not allow persons to operate or assemble
this unit until they have read this manual and
have developed a thorough understanding of
the safety precautions and of how it works.
Review the safety instructions with all users
annually.

6. This equipment is dangerous to children and

persons unfamiliar with its operation. The opera­tor should be a responsible, properly trained and
physically able person familiar with farm machin­ery and trained in this equipment's operations.
If the elderly are assisting with farm work, their
physical limitations need to be recognized and
accommodated.

9. In addition to the design and conguration of this
implement, including Safety Signs and Safety
Equipment, hazard control and accident preven­tion are dependent upon the awareness, concern,
prudence, and proper training of personnel in­volved in the operation, transport, maintenance,
and storage of the machine. Refer also to Safety
Messages and operation instruction in each of the
appropriate sections of the auxiliary equipment
and machine Manuals. Pay close attention to the
Safety Signs axed to the auxiliary equipment

2.4 SAFETY TRAINING

2.5 SAFETY SIGNS

1. Safety is a primary concern in the design and man-

ufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our eorts
to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by a
single careless act of an operator or bystander.

2. In addition to the design and conguration of

equipment, hazard control and accident preven­tion are dependent upon the awareness, con­cern, prudence and proper training of personnel
involved in the operation, transport, maintenance
and storage of this equipment.

3. It has been said, "The best

safety feature is an informed,
careful operator." We ask you
to be that kind of an operator.
It is the operator's responsibility
to read and understand ALL Safety and Operating
instructions in the manual and to follow these.
Accidents can be avoided.

4. Working with unfamiliar equipment can lead

to careless injuries. Read this manual, and the
manual for your auxiliary equipment, before
assembly or operating, to acquaint yourself
with the machines. If this machine is used by
any person other than yourself. It is the ma­chine owner's responsibility to make certain
that the operator, prior to operating:

a. Reads and understands the operator's

manuals.

b. Is instructed in safe and proper use.

5. Know your controls and how to stop the Agri-Vac

and any other auxiliary equipment quickly in an
emergency. Read this manual and the one pro­vided with your other equipment.

1. Keep safety signs clean and legible at all times.

2. Replace safety signs that are missing or have be­come illegible.

3. Replaced parts that displayed a safety sign should
also display the current sign.

4. Safety signs are available from your authorized
Distributor or Dealer Parts Department or the
factory.

How to Install Safety Signs:

• Be sure that the installation area is clean and dry.

• Be sure temperature is above 50°F (10°C).

• Determine exact position before you remove the
backing paper. (See Section 3).

• Remove the smallest portion of the split backing
paper.

• Align the sign over the specied area and carefully
press the small portion with the exposed sticky
backing in place.

• Slowly peel back the remaining paper and care­fully smooth the remaining portion of the sign in
place.

• Small air pockets can be pierced with a pin and
smoothed out using the piece of sign backing

®

paper.

6. Train all new personnel and review instructions
frequently with existing workers. Be certain only
a properly trained and physically able person will
operate the machinery. A person who has not read
and understood all operating and safety instruc­tions is not qualied to operate the machine. An
untrained operator exposes himself and bystand­ers to possible serious injury or death. If the elder­ly are assisting with work, their physical limitations
need to be recognized and accommodated.

5

2.6 PREPARATION

2.7 INSTALLATION SAFETY

1. Never operate the Agri-Vac® and auxiliary equip­ment until you have read and completely un­derstand this manual, the auxiliary equipment
Operator's Manual, and each of the Safety
Messages found on the safety signs on the and
auxiliary equipment.

2. Personal protection
equipment includ­ing hard hat, safe­ty glasses, safety
shoes, and gloves
are recommended
during assembly, in­stallation, operation,
adjustment, main­taining, repairing, removal, or moving the imple­ment. Do not allow long hair, loose tting clothing
or jewelery to be around equipment.

3. PROLONGED EXPOSURE
TO LOUD NOISE MAY CAUSE
PERMANENT HEARING LOSS!
Motors or equipment attached
can often be noisy enough to
cause permanent, partial hear­ing loss. We recommend that you wear hearing
protection on a full-time basis if the noise in the
Operator's position exceeds 80db. Noise over
85db on a long-term basis can cause severe hear­ing loss. Noise over 90db adjacent to the Operator
over a long-term basis may cause permanent,
total hearing loss. NOTE: Hearing loss from loud
noise (from tractors, chain saws, radios, and other
such sources close to the ear) is cumulative over
a lifetime without hope of natural recovery.

4. Clear working area of debris, trash or hidden ob­stacles that might be hooked or snagged, causing
injury, damage or tripping.

5. Operate only in daylight or good articial light.

6. Be sure machine is properly anchored, adjusted

4.10 CONVEYING OILSEEDS

For conveying oil seed commodities (such as
sunflower seeds or canola) we recommend a
raised tip blower and washout ports.
The raised tip blowers have a tip on the impellor
that cleans the casing as the blower rotates.
After conveying oilseeds, we recommend washing
the internal surfaces to remove any residue.
This will reduce the risk of seizing caused by a
build up of oil residue.

4. Install the plugs into the receiver tank inlet and air­lock outlet.

5. Touch up all paint nicks and scratches to prevent
rusting.

6. All hoses should be stored inside or under a
shelter.

7. Move the machine to its storage position.

8. Select an area that is dry, level and free of debris.

9. Motors should be stored in a clean, dry, ventilated
location. When in storage the motor shaft should
be turned several rotation every month and the
bearings re-lubricated every year.

10. It is recommended that the starter be powered up
once per year, for one hour continuously to avoid
deterioration of electrolyte and subsequent starter
failure.

5.2.4 BELT TENSION AND ALIGNMENT

Rotational power from the power source is transmitted
to the blower and airlock through the belt drive (electric
model). To obtain ecient transmission of power and
good belt life, the belts must be properly tensioned
and the pulleys aligned.

Belts that are too tight will stretch and wear quickly
or overload the bearings. Belts that are too loose will
not transmit the required power and will slip, overheat
and wear quickly. Pulleys that are not aligned will
result in rapid belt wear.

Follow this procedure when checking and adjusting
belt tension and pulley alignment.

over-lled (Use Walinga
Oil Part # 98-13813-5).

d. Install and tighten the level plug.

e. Install and secure the belt/chain covers.

®

Super Duty Blower

IMPORTANT:

It is necessary to maintain the recom­mended oil level in the reservoir. A low
level causes heating from lack of lu­brication and rapid gear and bearing
wear. Too much oil causes heating from
oil churning and can cause seal and
breather leaks.

5.2.7 AIRLOCK

The airlock acts as a seal between the vacuum and
pressure sides of the machine and is located at the
bottom of the receiver tank. As the rotor turns, a
pocket is lled with material when it points upward.
As the pocket rotates, it is moved to the bottom and
is moved into the pressure side of the system. The
grain is picked up by the stream of pressurized air
and moved out the discharge piping.

Ecient operation of the airlock requires a pressurized
t between the tips of the rotor and the case to maintain
a seal between vacuum and pressure sides.

When checking or maintaining the airlock, follow this
procedure:

1. Clear the area of bystanders, especially small
children.

2. Checking Tip Clearance:

a. Checking the airlock can be done through the

inspection door at the top of the tank.
