GENERAL

Successful operation of a machine depends upon good maintenance. Machinery must be

inspected regularly to make sure that all moving parts are in good operating condition and that all

bolts are tight. During the first week of operation, check the bolts for tightness daily and then

periodically thereafter. This procedure also applies to parts and components that have been disas-

sembled and reassembled during normal maintenance periods.

Caution must be used when operating your equipment in high winds. If possible lower your con-

veyor to its lowest setting during periods of high wind. If lowering you conveyor is not possible,

secure it to the ground at the axle. High winds can blow your conveyor over causing serious

injury and equipment damage.
