MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDUREBEFORE unclogging, cleaning, adjusting, lubricating or servicing the unit:1.2.3.4.Disengage the tractor PTO.Shut off the tractor engine, remove the ignition key and take it with you.Wait for all movement to stop.Remove the Telescoping PTO Drive and ALL power connections from the tractor.ONLY when you have taken these precautions can you be sure it is safe to proceed. Failure to follow theabove procedure could lead to death or serious bodily injury.Most farm accidents, like industrial, home and highway accidents, are caused by the failure of some individuals toobserve simple and fundamental safety rules or precautions. For this reason, farm accidents, just as other types ofaccidents, can be prevented by recognizing the causes of accidents and doing something about them before anaccident occurs.Regardless of the care used in the design and construction of farm equipment, there are many points that cannot becompletely safe-guarded without interfering with accessibility and efficient operation.A careful operator is the best insurance against an accident.The complete observance of one simple rule would prevent many thousand serious injuries each year.

in pile foundations for Level 1 earthquake situation. The proposed load factors in the study are a function of the chosen soil investigation/testing and piling method, which is applied to the bending moment in piles. Therefore, better choices of soil investigation/testing and high quality piling method will result in more reasonable design results. Introduction Reliability-based design .
