ground or other obstacle in the fall path. The required value of the free space should be taken from 
instruction manual of used equipment.

?

there are many hazards that may affect the performance of the equipment and corresponding safety 
precautions that have to be observed during equipment utilization, especially:- trailing or looping of 
lanyards or lifelines over sharp edges,- any defects like cutting, abrasion, corrosion, - climatic 
exposure,- pendulum falls,- extremes of temperature,- chemical reagents,- electrical conductivity.

?

personal protective equipment must be transported in the package (e.g.: bag made of moisture-proof 
textile or foil bag or cases made of steel or plastic) to protect it against damage or moisture.

?

the equipment can be cleaned without causing adverse effect on the materials in the manufacture of 
the equipment. For textile products use mild detergents for delicate fabrics, wash by hand or in a 
machine and rinse in water. Plastic parts can be cleaned only with water. When the equipment 
becomes wet, either from being in use or when due cleaning, it shall be allowed to dry naturally, and 
shall be kept away from direct heat. In metallic products some mechanic parts (spring, pin, hinge, 
etc.) can be regularly slightly lubricated to ensure better operation. 
Other maintenance and cleaning procedures should be adhered to detailed instructions stated in the 
manual of the equipment.

?

personal protective equipment should be stored loosely packed, in a well-ventilated place, protected 
from direct light, ultraviolet degradation, damp environment, sharp edges, extreme temperatures and 
corrosive or aggressive substances.
