A. The User/Operator must be competent and experienced to operate auger equipment. Any-
one who works with or around augers must have good common sense in order to be quali-
fied. These persons must also know and meet all other qualifications, such as:
1. Any person who has not read and/or does not understand all operation and safety
instructions is not qualified to operate any auger systems.
2. Certain regulations apply to personnel operating power machinery. Personnel under the
age of 18 years may not operate power machinery, including augers. It is your
responsibility, as owner and/or supervisor, to know what these regulations are in your area
or situation.
3. Unqualified or incompetent persons are to remain out of work area.
4. O.S.H.A. (Occupational Safety & Health Administration) regulations state:
“At the time of initial assignment and at least annually thereafter, the employer shall instruct
every employee in the safe operation and servicing of all equipment with which the
employee is, or will be involved.” (Federal Occupational Safety & Health Standards for
Agriculture. Sub part D, Section 19287.57 (a) (6).
B. As a requirement of OSHA, it is necessary for the employer to train the employee in the
safe operating and safety procedures for this auger. We included this sign-off sheet for your
convenience and personal record keeping. All unqualified people are to stay out of the work
area at all times. It is strongly recommended that another qualified person who knows the
shutdown procedure is in the area in the event of an emergency. A person who has not read
this manual and understands all operating and safety instructions, is not qualified to operate
the machine.
