              5. Cross cut the bag approximately 12 inches
            
            
              (300 mm) at right angles to the bag toward
            
            
              the top of the pile of grain in the bag.

                Cut
              
            
            
              
                Spread
              
            
            
              
                Cross Cut
              
            
            
              
                Slit
              
            
            
              
                NOTE
              
            
            
              Always place the cross cut on the bag
            
            
              before slitting to prevent the plastic from
            
            
              opening in an uncontrolled manner.  The
            
            
              cross cut will stop the slit.
