q When carrying out demolition or breaker operations, install a front guard and use a laminated coating sheet on the front glass. q When working in mines or quarries where there is a hazard of falling rock, install FOPS (Falling Objects Protective Struc- ture) and a front guard, and use a laminated coating sheet on the front glass. q When carrying out the above operations, always close the front window. In addition, always ensure that by standers are a safe distance away and are not in hazard from falling or fly- ing objects.
