2.6 Personal Protection Equipment
The machine is designed to accommodate and protect an operator during opera-
tion from foreseeable injury
when used as intended and when equipped prop-
erly for the task(s) being performed.
Operators should not wear rings, scarves,
open jackets, and should ensure that all clothing is tightly secured. Long hair
should be restrained. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) must be worn in the
absence of an enclosed cab. In this case PPE would include, but not be limited to,
safety glasses. The use of some attachments may require additional PPE, such as
hearing protection, hardhat, gloves, and steel-toed shoes. In some applications
high visibility/reflective jackets are required.
Personal protection equipment is also recommended when performing mainte-
nance or service on a machine. Always wear appropriate protective equipment for
working conditions when working on or around the machine. Loose clothing
should not be worn and long hair should be restrained. Wear hard hats, protective
face/eyewear, safety shoes and any other equipment necessary to ensure your
safety and the safety of others around you as you work.
2.7 Hazard Zone
The hazard zone encompasses the area around the machine in which persons
may be injured by movements of the machine, its attachments, or by falling loads,
during operation.
Do not position yourself or allow anyone else within this hazard zone during
machine operation. Keep a safe distance to ensure your safety while the machine
is in operation.
If someone enters the hazard zone, the operator must stop all work and give a
warning signal to the person who may be in danger to leave the hazard zone.
Work should not resume until all persons have vacated the hazard zone.
To minimize the possibility of a crushing hazard, a sufficient safety distance (min.
1.6 ft (0.5 m)) must be kept from solid objects, e. g. buildings, slopes, scaffolding,
other machines, etc. If that distance cannot be kept, fence off the area between
solid construction elements and the working elements of the machine.
If conditions are such that the machine operator’s view of the driving and working
zone is restricted, he must be guided or the driving and working zone must be
secured by means of a solid barricade.
