1. SafetyMaintenanceDANGERWhen working on or around the Stir-Ator, it is essential that a safe system ofwork is strictly followed. Failure to do so may result in serious injury to theoperator. Before carrying out any work on the Stir-Ator.1. Stop the Stir-Ator and all other machines BEFORE entering the bin.2. Ensure the isolator switch is locked into the “OFF” position, with the only key in the possession.3. Due to the height of the Stir-Ator in a bin, it is recommended that routine maintenance be carried outwith the bin full, working off boards laid on top of the grain.4. If access to the Stir-Ator is required when the bin is completely or partly empty, a safe means ofaccess must be used, preferably using a working platform.5. If using a ladder, DO NOT place the ladder against the Stir-Ator carriage unless it has been securelyclamped on either side to prevent movement. Failure to do this could cause a fatal accident. Notethat drying floors in grain stores may be slippery and therefore the ladder should be securely fixedbefore attempting to gain access.6. When setting a ladder against the Stir-Ator, a vise grip or some type of tie-down should be used inthe front and back of the track drive unit. This keeps the Stir-Ator from rolling or sliding around thebin while service work is being performed.7. If an unusual amount of service work is to be performed on a Stir-Ator, removing the augers andlowering the unit to the floor of the bin may be the safest way to repair the unit.8. Caution needs to be exercised when using a ladder to perform service work in a partially filled grainbin. The ladder can sink into the grain causing it to fall.9. Notice of noise and dust hazard: The Stir-Ator runs at noise levels below 70 db and should notpresent any risk to hearing. Decals indicating the possibility of dust are provided in the owner’smanual bag and should be installed per the diagram shown on Page 6. Dust may be created as anormal part of the stirring function of the Stir-Ator augers and although no person should be in thebin during the stirring operation, some residual dust may remain in the air after the Stir-Ator has beenturned “OFF”. The level of dust will vary depending on the condition of the grain. Operator’s shouldassess the risk to themselves and others, as required in the EU under the Control of SubstancesHazardous to Health Regulations. They should then implement appropriate control measures toreduce the risks to health.10. If attending to stuck augers, NEVER attempt to release the auger without isolating the Stir-Ator first.11. Before restarting the Stir-Ator, ensure that there is no one remaining in the bin and that the bin accessdoor is locked/closed.12. Remember to replace all guards before restarting.4 PNEG-1162CEX DMC DIII Stir-Ator
Installation1. The correct installation procedure is outlined in this manual.1. Safety2. Always install all recommended safety devices, such as safety isolators, grain level switches anddoor isolators. Failure to do so is a misuse of the equipment and may result in unsafe operation.3. Always use the recommended flexible cable (type HO7). Failure to do so may result in damage tothe electrical cable and risk electrical shock.4. All electrical wiring should be in accordance to EN60204:1998.5. All electrical installation must be carried out by a suitably qualified electrical engineer.6. The system and all associated steel work must be safely earthed.Operation1. Read and understand the owner’s manual.2. Keep all safety shields in place.3. Prior to inspecting, servicing, lubricating or adjusting the Stir-Ator, ensure the isolator switch is lockedin the “OFF” position, with the only key in the possession.4. Do not operate the Stir-Ator unless shut off chain has been properly installed and adjusted.5. NEVER enter the bin while the Stir-Ator is in operation.6. In the event that an auger becomes bound, the system should be switched OFF, isolated and lockedOFF before any attempt to release the auger.7. Operating the Stir-Ator during bin unloading can be beneficial to the unloading process as well asprevent auger damage.8. DO NOT OVER FILL THE GRAIN BIN. BURYING THE STIRRER WILL DAMAGE BIN AND WILLVOID THE DESIGN III WARRANTY.9. DO NOT OPERATE DESIGN III STIR-ATOR IN AN EMPTY BIN.PNEG-1162CEX DMC DIII Stir-Ator 5
