2.0 SAFETY
2.6 Safe Riding Gear (continued)
Eye Protection
Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection.
Whenever riding this RPAMS upfitted vehicle, always wear
shatter-proof goggles or use a shatter-proof helmet face shield.
RPAMS recommends wearing approved Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) bearing markings such as VESC 8, V-8,
Z87.1, or CE. Make sure protective eye wear is kept clean.
Gloves
Wear gloves for comfort and for protection from sun, cold
weather and other elements.
Boots
Wear sturdy over-the-ankle boots for support and protection.
Never ride a RPAMS vehicle with bare feet or sandals.
Clothing
Wear long sleeves and long pants to protect arms and legs.
Rider Comfort
Under certain conditions, heat generated by the engine mid
chassis location and exhaust system can increase temperatures
in the cab area. The condition occurs most frequently when a
vehicle is being operated in high ambient temperatures at low
speeds and/or high load conditions for any period of time. The
use of certain cab enclosure systems may contribute to this
condition by restricting airflow. Any discomfort due to heat
accumulating in this area can be mitigated by wearing proper
riding apparel and by increasing airflow.
