    Safety Precautions Preventing Farm Machine Hazards The following article describes important general safety precautions for machinery such as the NT-204C/NT-254 tractor. It is reprinted here with permission from Professor Thomas L. Bean, Safety Leader and Professor, Department of Food, Agricultural, and Biological Engineering, The Ohio State University Extension, The Ohio State University. AEX-593-91 Thomas L.
  • Page 17 Safety Precautions Both shear and cutting points are created on machinery designed to cut, such as harvesters, and on those that are not designed to cut, such as augers. They are hazardous because of their cutting force and they often move so rapidly that they may not be visible, so it is easy to forget they are operating or to underestimate the hazard.
  • Page 18 Safety Precautions Hazards increase with shafts that are not round. Clothing is more likely to catch if there is dried mud or manure on the shaft, or if the shaft is nicked. Ends of shafts that protrude beyond bearings are also dangerous. Universal joints, keys and fastening devices can also snag clothing.
  • Page 19 Safety Precautions Springs Compressed springs (Fig. 4 below) will expand with great force when released, and springs that are stretched will contract rapidly when released. Know what direction a spring will move and how it might affect another machine part when released, and stay out of its path. Figure 4 Burn Points Be aware of burn points: mufflers, manifolds and even gear cases under adverse climatic conditions.
