FARM EQUIPMENT SAFETY TIPS
https://www.ntstiresupply.com/blog/farm-equipment-safety-tip
Every time you’re out on the farm, remember this simple formula:
Safety = Good Working Equipment + Capable and Attentive Operators
Keep these tips in mind to avoid accidents when operating equipment and
machinery on your farm.
1. Read and comply with the manual. Always thoroughly read the manual for
each piece of equipment. Your new tractor may function differently than your
old one, for example. Then, comply with the instructions and rules
2. Follow and keep up with federal and state laws. These laws are in place to
protect both you and the citizens around you, and it’s best to make sure you’re
keeping up with changes to avoid fines. For instance, Wisconsin recently
changed its lighting and marking requirements for all Implements of
Husbandry (IoH) to further protect both operators and drivers on public roads.
3. Always keep your slow-moving-emblem (SMV) clean, visible and
properly mounted. This is an important law. Following it can prevent rear-end
collisions while transporting and potentially save a life. Road safety is so
important.
4. Dress appropriately. An untied shoelace, flowing long hair and stray threads
from an old shirt have, in the past, led to horrendous injuries when operating
farm equipment. Dressing appropriately can mean reducing risk of such
injuries.
5. Ensure you’re well rested. Feeling fatigued when operating machinery can
be dangerous. Make sure you’re taking breaks from work when you need rest.
6. Avoid alcohol. Even one drink can affect your ability to operate machinery.
Keep alcohol out of the picture until you’re done for the day.
7. Maintain awareness. Stay focused. Be aware of what you are doing and
where you are going.
8. Adjust equipment accordingly. This means keeping all guards, shields and
access doors in place when operating equipment, and making necessary
alterations to equipment to fit operational conditions.
9. Keep children and animals away from working areas. Farms offer a world
of adventure for curious kids. To avoid any disastrous accidents, keep your
child’s play area separate from your work area. Know where your children are
even when you are mowing the lawn. Don’t let a split-second accident impact
your child forever. 10. Read up about planter equipment safety. Although
operators should bear in mind similar safety precautions when using planter
equipment, it’s good to read up about the specifics.
Farm equipment safety starts with you! Know how to properly use your
equipment and keep your farm buildings safe.
