1. Safety
1. Read and understand the Owner’s Manual.
2. Keep all safety shields in place.
3. Disconnect all electrical power prior to inspecting, servicing, lubricating or
adjusting the equipment.
4. Keep hands, feet and clothing away from moving parts while in operation.
NEVER stand or sit on unit while in operation.
5. To avoid serious injury or death, stay clear of the unit and make sure everyone
else is clear of the Stir-Ator before starting or operating the unit.
6. DO NOT operate the Stir-Ator unless shut off chain has been properly installed
and adjusted.
7. Never enter the bin while the Stir-Ator is in operation.
8. Exercise care when starting the Stir-Ator in a full bin of grain. Augers can be
stuck in the grain causing damage to the Stir-Ator or to the bin.
9. Operating the Stir-Ator during bin unloading can be beneficial to the unloading
process as well as prevent auger damage.
10. BURYING THE UNIT WILL DAMAGE THE BIN AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
11. DO NOT OPERATE DESIGN III STIR-ATOR IN AN EMPTY BIN. To test the unit in
an empty bin, make sure no one is inside the bin, then turn power “ON” and
“OFF” immediately from the outside of the bin. DO NOT let the Stir-Ator run in
an empty bin. Damage to Stir-Ator and bin can result.
12. All electrical hook-ups must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code.
Be sure equipment and bins are properly grounded.
13. When not operating the unit for extended periods of time or in some cases while
emptying the bin, it may be best to position the trolley at the bin wall to eliminate
possible Stir-Ator or bin damage.
