•
not use hands or feet to clean out intake hopper.
Do not use downspout as a support. Stay clear of discharge end.
•
The machine is closely balanced. Do not move grain unless the intake end is
•
anchored or the discharge end is supported to prevent upending.
Set park brake on tractor before starting.
