frederick, MD | I don't suggest spending lots of time hanging out under these bags. Besides the normal worry of a hydro line or something failing on the lifting machine you need to worry about the bag straps tearing.
Many seed producers will reuse bags. These bags are single use items. I have seen a bag strap tear free from the bag.
Many time operators of front end loaders like to pick the bags way up in the air without leveling the forks. This puts extrem strain on the straps.
After all the close calls I have seen I am careful.
Saw a planter sitting in the shop. We left for lunch and came back, it was on the ground. A Hyd hose blew apart.
Same thing once too with a manure spreader but this time the tire blew out. Would have crushed my man if he had been under it.
Please be careful. | |
