1.34 When de-fueling ALWAYS use a proper fuel retriever.

1.35 ALWAYS carry fuel in the correct and clearly marked container.

1.40 Electrical Safety (where applicable).

1.41 Electricity can kill – NEVER work on LIVE/ENERGISED equipment.

1.42 Prior to carrying out any maintenance work you MUST identify electrical isolation

methods and isolate all electrical supplies.

1.43 Prior to use and with all electrical supplies isolated, you MUST check all electrical

cables, plugs and connectors for the following;

1.44 Are intact and have no signs of damage, to include but not limited to bare wires,

chaffing, cuts and loose wiring.

1.45 If there are any signs of damage, the damage item MUST be taken out of service

until the damage has been repaired by an electrically competent person.

1.46 All trailing cables should be routed so as not to cause any kind of trip hazard.

1.47 NEVER work on or near electricity with wet hands, wet clothing and wet gloves.

1.50 Batteries (where present).

1.51 Batteries present a risk if they become damaged by the possible leaking of

electrolyte. This electrolyte is an acid and can cause serious burn injuries. Care

should be taken when working on or near them. NOTE the electrolyte may be in

a liquid or gel form.

1.52 Should you come in to contact with electrolyte you should;

1.53 Remove all clothing contaminated with electrolyte. If you cannot remove then

saturate them in water.

1.54 Get medical assistance as soon as possible. You must advise the medical staff of

the type of acid.

6

1.55 Lead/acid battery = dilute sulphuric acid.

1.56 Nickel/cadmium = potassium hydroxide alkali electrolyte.

1.57 Use fresh running water to wash off excess electrolyte, continue this until medical

assistance arrives. Make sure that you do not was the electrolyte to another part of

your body or face.

1.58 If electrolyte comes in to contact with Eyes the electrolyte needs to be immediately

washed away with large amounts of water. Make sure that you do not wash the

electrolyte to another part of your face or body.

1.59 Gasses from charging batteries are highly flammable and great care should be taken

to charge in well ventilated areas.

connecting/disconnecting ALWAYS exercise great care so that the terminals or

battery leads are NOT allowed to touch and cause a spark. ALWAYS use suitable

insulated tools.

1.60 Vibrations (where applicable).

1.61 Prolonged use of hand held (operated) machines will cause the user to feel the

effects of/from vibrations. These vibrations can lead to white finger (Raynaud’s

phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition reduces the ability of the

hand to feel and regulate temperature, causing numbness and heat sensations and

may cause never damage and circulatory tissue death.

1.62 Not all factors that lead to white finger disease are known, but cold weather, smoking

and other diseases that affect blood vessels and blood circulation as well as large

and long-lasting impact of shocks are considered factors in the formation of white

finger. Note the following to reduce the risk of white finger and carpal tunnel

syndrome;

1.63 Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.

1.64 Take regular breaks.

1.65 All of the above precautions may help reduce the risk of white finger disease but not

rule out the carpal tunnel syndrome. Long-term and regular users are therefore

recommended to observe the condition of your hands and fingers. Seek medical

attention immediately if any of the above symptoms should occur.

1.70 Noise (where applicable).

1.71 The operating noise of the machine can damage your hearing. Wear hearing

protection such as earplugs or ear defenders to protect your hearing. Long-term
