SQ08-SQ40 General Safety

CAUTION when Climbing:
Ladder SAFETY

Watch your Step. Use the Ladder, Upper Guardrails and the rear Handrail and rear Step(s) provided when servicing the Dryer. Never sit on the Guardrail. Do not climb on other areas of the Dryer. Follow the instructions on the Ladder CAUTION Decal  located at the Ladder on applicable models.

 

The Unload Cover has been designed as a Step. It must be kept clean, or a buildup of chaff residue here can decompose and become slippery and hazardous.

 

Side Ladders are provided on all SQ models for access to the Transition Door area. There should always be a Ladder DANGER Decal (13-23790) near the bottom of the Ladder. It contains important SAFETY information necessary because the Dryer is near grain bins. Some statements on the Decal directly applicable to the Dryer include, but may not be limited to, the following statements:

• Face the Ladder when ascending or descending. Maintain a firm grip. Center your body between Side Rails.

• Do not use Ladders or climb up to service the Dryer if you tire easily, are in poor health, are subject to fainting spells, use medicine or alcohol, or are physically handicapped /tired.

•  Keep steps and rungs free from slippery material such as ice, snow, mud, grease, manure, etc. Wear slip-resistant shoes.

•  Never climb a damaged Ladder. Before use, inspect the Ladder carefully for deterioration from chemicals or weather. If it is damaged or exposed to fire or damaging chemicals, contact your BROCK Dealer for a replacement.

• The maximum load of the Dryer Ladder is 300 pounds [136 kg].
