    7. OPERATION EASYDRY® WIDE-CORR CENTURION® GRAIN BIN – GRAIN BIN DRYER 7. Operation Before continuing, ensure you have completely read and understood this manual’s Safety section, in addition to the safety information in the section(s) below. 7.1. Operation Safety • Always try to solve problems without entering a grain dryer from the inspection hatch or filler cap.

  • Page 153: Multiple Fans

    When using multiple fans in one bin, you must prevent reverse rotation of idle fans by making certain fans start- up simultaneously or by employing shutters that shield blades from moving air. Reverse rotation of idle fans pose concerns for the worker safety and fan/motor wear and tear. Contact your Westeel dealer for the appropriate size shutter.

    The result of these checks allow the operator to modify his drying and storage procedures before any grain goes out of condition. Westeel recommends probing for moisture content and temperature at least once a week during storage.

  • Page 157: Cleanout

    7. OPERATION EASYDRY® WIDE-CORR CENTURION® GRAIN BIN – GRAIN BIN DRYER Do not unload grain off-center as this can cause structural damage to the grain dryer, possible collapse, or injury to bystanders. Figure 124. Unloading Operation 7.9. Cleanout Important The grain dryer should be cleaned thoroughly to lessen the risk of fire, insect infestation, and mold growth.
