" Win With Farm Safety"
Safety Tips
Some farm safety tips taken from Video Vignettes to help you with your
project and share with your family and friends.
• PTO Shafts have swift- moving components. Covers on PTO Shafts
will miriimize potential injury and routine maintenance checks will alert
you to any equipment malfunctions. And, by taking the extra time to
tuck- in clothing, button up shirts or removing drawstrings from
garments, clothes are less likely to get caught in moving parts.
• Give Kids a Place to Play: Allocating designated play areas far way
from farm equipment and access roads are positive safety measures taken
to ensure children's safety when playing outdoors.
• Take a Break: Farming requires long hours under difficult conditions
therefore taking well deserved breaks will help you feel refreshed and
alert while working with equipment.
• Follow a Routine: Following the same routine when handling livestock
can prevent potential injury. These creatures of habit will be less likely
to place you in a dangerous situation i f each day they are handled in the
same manner. Even family members can follow a daily routine; let one
another know your daily schedule so you may be alerted to anything
unusual.
• Keep Protective Covers on Equipment: Augers, bailers and combines
have several moving parts. Keeping these covered and fingers, hands,
clothmg and tools away, w i l l prevent loss or injury. If it moves, keep it
covered.
• Place Pad Locks on Grain Bins: Locks secure your grain and will also
ensure children cannot climb into them. Making grain bin access
impossible for children can prevent serious injury.
• Fence- Off Dug- Outs and Wells: Fencing off these dangerous areas will
ensure they won't become an inviting play place for children or an
unsafe path for curious livestock and pets.
• Turn off Farm Equipment before getting out: Turning off the engine
or motor on equipment may take a moment, but it can save a life or a
limb.
