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.
