Safety guidelines for operating organic fertilizer equipment and fertilizer mixers

1.Safety Checks Before Operation

First, check that the power cord is intact and the grounding is secure to prevent electric shocks. Make sure all bolts on the mixer are tight, especially the mixing blades. Check that the gearbox oil is within the marked range and the drive belt has proper tension.

2.Safety Rules During Operation

Always start the fertilizer mixer empty (no material inside). Only begin adding material once it’s running normally. Stand in a safe spot—never put your hands or tools into a moving mixer. Control how much and how fast you add material to avoid overloading the motor or causing breakdowns.

3.Safety During Maintenance and Cleaning

Only service or clean the fertilizer mixer when the power is completely off. Use tools—not your hands—to clean inside or near the blades. Regularly check wear parts like blades and replace any that are bent or badly worn. Grease bearings as scheduled.

4.Operator Safety Gear

Only trained staff who know the machine and its rules should operate it. Wear fitted clothing, tie back long hair, and avoid loose items or jewelry. Use required protective gear like dust masks, safety glasses, and non-slip shoes.

Following these rules significantly reduces risks, extends the fertilizer mixer’s life, and keeps people safe while working.
