Prepare Yourself
Wear personal protective clothing and Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) issued to you or called
for by job conditions. You must ALWAYS wear safety
glasses with side shields.
You may also need:
— Hard hat
— Safety shoes
— Safety glasses, goggles or face shield
— Apron and gloves
— Hearing protection
— Welding helmet or goggles
— Respirator or fi lter mask
Wear whatever is needed—don't take chances.
Keep hands—and clothing—away from all moving
parts. Don't wear dangling ties, loose sleeves, rings,
watches, or long hair.
WARNING! Prevent death or serious injury from entangle -
ment. Do not wear loose clothing or accessories. Stay
away from all rotating components when the engine is
running. Contact, wrapping or entanglement with rotating
or moving parts could result in death or serious injury.
Wear a rubber apron and rubber gloves when working
with corrosives. Wear gloves and safety shoes when
handling wooden blocks or sharp-edged metal.
Always use safety glasses, goggles or a face shield. They
provide eye protection from fl uids under pressure, during
grinding and while servicing batteries. Protection is also
needed from fl ying debris, liquids and loose material
produced by equipment, tools and pressurized air/water.
Wear a face shield and follow manufacturer's instuctions
when you disassemble spring-loaded components or work
with battery acids. Wear a welding helmet or goggles with
a shaded fi lter when you weld or cut with a torch.
Do not sand, grind, fl ame-cut, braze or weld without a
NIOSH-approved respirator or appropriate ventilation.
If welding is required on this machine, refer to the
manufacturer's operator's or service manuals or consult
your equipment dealer for proper procedures.
Keep pockets free of all objects that could fall out—and
drop into machinery.
Handle tools and heavy parts sensibly—with regard
for yourself and other persons. Lower items—don't
drop them.
