- Read and understand the operator's manual before operating.
- Always transport the auger in the fully down position.
- The auger should never be towed without a safety chain securely attached between the auger hitch and the towing vehicle. Always check that the hitch pin is held securely in place before towing.
- When moving the auger on a public road: use a red flag, SMV (Slow Moving Vehicle) sign, and/or warning lights to provide adequate warning to operators of other vehicles. The overall width on some models exceeds 8 ft 6 in. It is the operator's responsibility to know and comply with regulations regarding transport on a public road.
- Exercise extreme caution in maneuvering on or around tight corners; the end of the auger extends far beyond the axle so remember that it will follow a wide path around a corner
- The auger must be on a level surface and wheels free to move when raising or lowering. Everyone should be kept clear during these operations.
- Empty the auger before moving, to prevent upending.
- Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from exposed flighting and all moving parts.
- Do not allow children or anyone other than the operator close to the auger when in operation. Make certain everyone is clear before operating or moving auger.
- Stop engine, disconnect the power source: and wait for all machine movement to stop before servicing, adjusting, cleaning, or unclogging the equipment.
- Make sure everyone is clear of machinery before starting the engine, engaging power, or operating the auger.
- Auger should be stored in the fully down position. Chock the wheels so that there is no chance of auger moving.
- Each time you prepare to use the auger check the PTO drive shaft to see that it is securely attached at both ends. The guard must be in good condition and rotate freely.
- Before operating the auger, make certain that all safety shields and devices are in place and in good condition.
- OSHA regulation 1928.57(a)(6) states, 'At the time of initial assignment and at least annually thereafter the employer shall instruct every employee in the safe operation and servicing of all covered equipment with which he is or will be involved.'
