Clothing and Personal Protective Items Do not wear loose clothing and accessories. There is a hazard that they may catch on control levers or other protruding parts. If you have long hair and it hangs out from your hard hat, there is a hazard that it may get caught up in the machine, so tie your hair up and be careful not to let it get caught. Always wear a hard hat and safety shoes. If the nature of the work requires it, wear safety glasses, mask, gloves, ear plugs, and safety belt when operating or maintaining the machine. Check that all protective equipment functions properly before using it.
Fire Extinguisher and First Aid Kit (If equipped) Always follow the precautions below to prepare for action if any injury or fire should occur. Be sure that fire extinguishers have been provided and read the labels to ensure that you know how to use them in emergencies. Carry out periodic inspection and maintenance to ensure that the fire extinguisher can always be used. Provide a first aid kit in the storage point. Carry out periodic checks and add to the contents if necessary. Safety Equipment Be sure that all guards and covers are in their proper position. Have guards and covers repaired immediately if they are damaged.
Understand the method of use of safety features and use them properly. Never remove any safety features. Always keep them in good operating condition. Keep Machine Clean If water gets into the electrical system, there is a hazard that it will cause malfunctions or mis-operation. Do not use water or steam to wash the electrical system (sensors, connectors). If inspection and maintenance is carried out when the machine is still dirty with mud or oil, there is a hazard that you will slip and fall, or that dirt or mud will get into your eyes. Always keep the machine clean. 1-12 PC200LC-8
