Chapter 1: Safety

11 of 60

Learn and always use safe operation. Cooperate with co-workers to promote safe practices.
Immediately report any potentially dangerous situation to your supervisor or appropriate
person.

REMEMBER:

• NEVER place your hands or any part of your body in any dangerous location.
• NEVER operate, service, or adjust the rate monitor without appropriate training and

first reading and understanding this manual.

• NEVER try to pull material out of the rate monitor with your hands while it is

running!

Before you start the GH Hopper check the following:

• Remove all tools from the unit;
• Be sure no objects (tools, nuts, bolts, clamps, bars) are laying in the feeding area.

Report the following occurrences IMMEDIATELY:

•  Unsafe operation or condition
•  Unusual action
•  Leakage
•  Improper maintenance

Note: If your rate monitor has been inoperative or unattended, check all

settings before starting the unit.

Note: At the beginning of your shift and after breaks, verify that the controls

and other auxiliary equipment are functioning properly.

Note: Keep all safety guards in place and in good repair. NEVER attempt to

bypass, modify, or remove safety guards. Such alteration is not only
unsafe, but will void the warranty on your equipment.

Note: When changing control settings to perform a different mode of

operation, be sure selector switches are correctly positioned. Locking
selector switches should only be adjusted by authorized personnel and
the keys removed after setting.

Note: NEVER stand or sit where you could slip or stumble into the rate

monitor while working on it.

Note: DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewelry, which can be caught while

working on a rate monitor. In addition, cover or tie back long hair.

Note: Clean the rate monitor and surrounding area DAILY, and inspect the

machine for loose, missing or broken parts.

Note: Shut off power to the GH Hopper when it is not in use. Turn the switch

to the OFF position, or unplug it from the power source.
