Please read and use this manual as a guide to equipment safety. This manual contains safety 
warnings throughout, specific to each function and point of operation. 
Operator Responsibility 
The operator’s responsibility does not end with efficient production. The operator usually has 
the most daily contact with the equipment and intimately knows its capabilities and 
limitations.  
Plant and personnel safety is sometimes forgotten in the desire to meet incentive rates, or 
through a casual attitude toward machinery formed over a period of months or years. Your 
employer probably has established a set of safety rules in your workplace. Those rules, this 
manual, or any other safety information will not keep you from being injured while operating 
your equipment. 
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 equipment without appropriate training and first    
reading and understanding this manual. 
•  NEVER try to pull material out of the equipment with your hands while it is running! 
•  Before you start the portable drying/conveying system check the following: 
•  Remove all tools from the equipment; 
•  Be sure no objects (tools, nuts, bolts, clamps, bars) are laying in the 
hopper area; 
•  If your portable drying/conveying system has been inoperative or unattended, check all 
settings before starting the unit. 
•  At the beginning of your shift and after breaks, verify that the controls and other 
auxiliary equipment are functioning properly. 
•  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. 
•  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. 
•  Report the following occurrences IMMEDIATELY: 
•  unsafe operation or condition 
•  unusual dryer/conveying system action 
•  leakage 
•  improper maintenance
