“DO-IT-YOURSELF” SAFETY PROGRAM

GRAVITY FLOW WAGON

Gravity flow wagons are the result of many farm accidents across the country. Grain that is emptied from the bottom of wagons can act like quicksand, sucking both adults and children to the bottom and often suffocating them.  This video warns viewers about the dangers of this type of machinery and teaches valuable tips that may save someone’s life!
