Don't put your hands in jeopardy. Block the wheels on moving parts to keep them from moving suddenly. Tractors and combines accept various implements. Be aware that these implements will cause the tractor or combine to handle or operate differently. During harvesting, stay out of trucks and wagons when grain is being loaded or unloaded.
Suffocation can occur when a person is trapped in flowing grain.
Safety in Transporting Most agricultural equipment has only one seat for the operator, extra riders are at risk and should not be allowed to ride on any agricultural tractor. Use appropriate safety equipment provided, such as seat belts or harnesses and handrails or foot rests. When operating equipment on the public roads, check to see that slow moving vehicle signs are securely attached, clearly visible and that they are not faded. Grain Auger Safety Many accidents occur around augers and conveyors. Augers are used in the field when loading and at the grain center when unloading.
