II. MACHINE OPERATION (Continued)
11. Do not attempt to pull anything
out of the feed chute or shredder
box when machine is in operation.
Shut down the engine using
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) lockout/
tagout procedure (29CFR 1910.147) before
removing any foreign objects. Give a visual and
audible signal that all is clear before restarting the
machine.
III. MAINTENANCE:
1. Before servicing the machine, turn
off engine and allow all moving
parts to stop. Disconnect the
battery cables to prevent accidental
starting of the machine. Tag the
engine operating area to show that
the machine is being serviced.
Use lockout/tagout procedure
(29 CFR 1910.147).
2. On trailer units, perform general
maintenance such as checking the
safety chains, hitch, hitch bolts,
tires, and brakes. Repair or replace
if worn or broken. Never operate
machine on improperly inflated or
damaged tires. Always use a safety cage or cable
restraints when reinflating a repaired tire.
3. Battery maintenance. Lead-acid
batteries contain sulfuric acid,
that will damage eyes or skin
on contact. Always wear a face
shield to avoid getting acid in the
eyes. If acid contacts eyes, flush
immediately with clean water and get medical
attention. Wear rubber gloves and protective
clothing to keep acid off skin. Lead-acid batteries
produce flammable and explosive gases. Keep
arcs, sparks, flames, and lighted tobacco away.
4. Filling of fuel. Never fill the fuel
tank while the engine is running,
while smoking, or when near an
open flame. Never smoke while
handling fuel or working on the fuel
system. The fumes in an empty
fuel container are explosive. Never
cut or weld on fuel lines, tanks, or containers. Move
at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from fueling point
before starting engine. Wipe off any spilled fuel and
let dry before starting engine
IMPORTANT: Be careful not to allow fuel, lubricant,
hydraulic fluid, or cooling fluids to penetrate into
the ground or be discharged into the water system.
Collect all used fluids and dispose of them properly.
5. It is recommended that only authorized, genuine
FINN replacement parts be used on the machine.
6. Make certain that all decals on the machine are
maintained in good legible condition. Replacement
decals are available through FINN Corporation
by specifying the part number shown in the lower
right-hand corner of the decal. See the current set
of safety decals mounted on the unit. See Parts
Manual for the location and quantity of all decals on
this unit.
