3.11.9SafetyProps
Safety Props are located at the front and rear of the vehicle under the conveyor. Painted yellow,
these manually-engaged safety devices prevent the conveyor from possibly drifting down during
maintenance work. The Safety Props should be engaged any time the conveyor is in the raised
position during maintenance or daily equipment checks.
3.11.10Side/HandRails
The Side Rails are mounted on the side of the conveyor to prevent cargo from falling off the con-
veyor belt. The operator holds the Hand Rails when climbing the conveyor to rearrange the load.
When not needed, these rails hinge down to conveyor belt level.
3.11.11FingerGuards
Finger guards painted yellow and are located on the front, rear, and bottom of the conveyor.
When used correctly, the adjustable guards prevent the operator from getting fingers caught
between the conveyor belt and the conveyor frame. The guards are adjustable as the belt
stretches.
3.11.12RubberBumperRoll
A Rubber Bumper Roll across the front of the conveyor frame protects the frame from damage.
3.11.13SteelHoopGuard(Optional)
A Steel hoop guard across the rear of the conveyor frame protects the belt from damage.
3.11.14GritPaper
Grit paper is positioned on the working platforms and the floor of the cab for better walking trac-
tion and safer operation. The grit paper on working platforms should be inspected monthly and
replaced when found to be torn or worn off.
