Careless accidents - slips and falls by someone getting on or off a piece of equip ment - are the most common lost-time injury, he says. Farmers and their em- ployees can avoid accidents by following a few common sense safety practices. '"The first thing a farmer should be concerned with," says Mr. Ross, "is that harvesting equipment is in good repair, has had proper maintenance, and has all shields in place." Safety shields protect, operators when they make mistakes. All you have to do to cause an accident is lean on equipment without thinking, or slip and reach out to gain your balance, says Mr. Ross. A farmer should be completely familiar with his equipment. Hired help operating machinery must be properly trained and -aware of saféty procedures. Inexperienced operators often don't know how to react when something goes wrong. Even experienced oper- ators have to take care of themselves, says Mr. Ross. Proper rest is essential for someone spending long hours at the wheel of a tractor or combine. Regular and frequent refreshment breaks while working keep an operator alert. An alert operator reacts more quickly than a tired one. A split second delay can mean the difference between BEEN HOLDING OUT FORAHOT SUMMER DEAL? THIS IS THE TIME TO SEE US. THE HEAT IS ON!

Good personal protective equipment also makes an operator more comfortable and alert, says Mr. Ross. Such equipment has the . added advantage of providing protection from long-term health hazards such as noise and dust. It includes ear muffs if equip- ment is noisy, proper fitting clothing, a dust mask when combining, safety boots and a hard hat. To protect equipment health, says Mr. Ross, keep engines chaff-free and clean. Bigger machines should have a fire extinguisher - a five pound type is recom- mended for a combine. All platforms should be obstruction-free to prevent slips and falls. When getting on and off any machine, always remember the three point method - one foot and two hands, or two feet and one hand, on the machine during ascent and descent. If working on your own farm, says Mr. Ross, let someone know where you are and when you'll return. Custom operators should have a two-way radio to call for help if they get into trouble. Finally, every farmer should take special care that children are not. riding on machinery or playing around working machinery. Accidents happen all too quickly at this hectic time of 'year.
