, type 2 (upholster, to be fastened to the trousers legs into
bag on height of knee) are suitable to offer protection against
hardware, lying on floor, as well as prevent chronically disease (e.g.
bursitis or cartilage-defect). Already existing disease cannot be cured
by wearing this knee-protection, but hurtful effects can be limited.
Important premise for the attainment of this aim is the combination of
knee-protection with proper work-wear, equipped with appropriated
kneepad-pockets which are made for this kind of purpose.
These PPE cannot prevent body injury completely. Furthermore,
no protection is offered:
-
from fire crossing and extinguishing hazards
-
from chemical hazards (kneepad is NOT solvent-resistant)
Always observe the general instruction on page 11 - 14.
