S02 SAFETY
SAFE MAINTENANCE PRACTICE
Understand service procedures before
doing work. Keep work area clean and dry.
Never lubricate, service, or adjust engine
while it is running. Keep hands, feet, hair
and clothing away from moving parts.
Fix damage immediately. Replace worn or broken parts.
Remove any build up of grease, oil, or debris. On self-
propelled equipment, disconnect battery ground (-)
before making adjustments on electrical systems or
welding.
WORK IN CLEAN AREA
Clean work area and machine before
starting a job. Make sure you have all
necessary tools to do your job. Have the
right parts on hand. Read all instructions
thoroughly ; do not attempt short-cuts
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment
appropriate to the job. Operating equipment safely
requires the full attention of the operator. Do not wear
radio or music headphones while operating the engine.
SERVICE ENGINES SAFELY
Tie long hair behind your head. Do not wear
a neck tie, scarf, loose clothing, or necklace
when you work near moving parts. If these
items were to get caught, severe injury
could result. Remove rings and other
jewellery to prevent electrical shorts and
entanglement in moving parts.
PROPER USE OF TOOLS
Use tools appropriate to the work.
Makeshift tools and unfollowed procedures
can create safety hazards. Do not use U.S
mechanical tools on metric fasteners (i.e. a
1/2 inch wrench on a 13 mm nut).
Use power tools only to loosen threaded parts and
fasteners. For loosening and tightening hardware,
use the correct size tools. Avoid bodily injury caused
by slipping wrenches. Use only service parts meeting
manufacturer specifications..
SUPPORT ENGINES PROPERLY
Always lower the attachment or implement
to the base before you work on an engine.
If the work requires that the engine be
lifted, provide secure system. If left in a
raised position, hydraulically supported
device can settle or leak down.
Do not support engines on any kind of props that may
crumble. Do not work under an engine that is solely
supported by a jack. Follow recommended procedures
in this manual.
SAFE ILLUMINATED WORK AREA
Illuminate your work area adequately and safely. Use a
portable safety light for working inside the engine room.
Make sure the bulb is enclosed by a wire cage. The
hot filament of an accidentally broken bulb can ignite
spilled fuel or oil.
PROPER LIFTING EQUIPMENT
Lifting heavy components incorrectly can cause severe
injury or equipment damage. Use expertise of staff
holding relevant(s) legal capacity to operate heavy
lifting equipment, with the know-how of using slings
and chains.
