the machine at all times. This machine should only

5. Safety
The KEENAN MechFiber Mixer Wagon has many safety features built into its
design but ultimately, safe operation requires the vigilance of the operator and
an understanding of potential safety hazards. The machine is designed to be
used as a mixer/chopper wagon for mixing animal feeds. It should not be used
for any other purpose which will aect its performance or safety.
