2.6 Personal Protection Equipment (PPE)
The machine is designed to accommodate and protect an operator
during operation from foreseeable injury
when used as intended
and when equipped properly 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 visibili-
ty/reflective jackets are required.
Personal protection equipment is also recommended when perform-
ing maintenance 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 Danger Zone
The danger zone encompasses the area around the machine in
which persons may be injured by movements of the machine during
operation, its attachments, or by falling loads.
Do not position yourself or allow anyone else within this danger
zone during machine operation. Keep a safe distance to ensure your
safety while the machine is in operation.
If someone enters the danger zone, the operator must stop all work
and give a warning signal to the person who may be in danger to
leave the danger zone. Work should not resume until all persons
have vacated the danger zone.
To minimize the possibility of a crushing hazard, a sufficient safety
distance (min. 0.5 m (1.6 ft)) 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 ele-
ments and the working range 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.
