HAZARD AWARENESS
All operators and workshop personnel should be aware of the physical and biological risks that are inherent in the operation of a road sweeper. The
risk falls into two main categories as follows:
• Risks represented by the sweeper and its various systems.
• Risks represented by the sweeper's operating environment.
Both have the potential for exposure to a variety of hazards, ranging from hot surfaces to infectious diseases, that can occur during day-to-day
operation, while carrying out adjustments or when involved with the general maintenance and servicing activities on the Machine.
Typical Machine-related hazards are:
• Exposure to hot surfaces and sharp edges.
• Exposure to moving parts.
• Exposure to various fluids (including some hot and/or pressurised).
• Exposure to surface contamination resulting from general operating conditions.
Typical environmental hazards are:
• Exposure to sharp objects (e.g. broken glass, discarded hypodermic syringes) while operating or working on the Machine.
• Exposure to various infectious diseases (e.g. Legionnaire's, Weil's, Hepatitis, Tetanus) while operating or working on the Machine.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using external equipment such as the high-pressure water lance, or when dealing with potentially hazardous situations while sweeping (e.g.
unblocking a suction nozzle), always wear the appropriate Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and exercise extreme caution if required to handle
any of the material being swept.
Before working on the Machine, subject it to a thorough steam cleaning or high-pressure hot water wash using appropriate detergents etc.
Even after taking all reasonable steps to reduce the risk from the hazards described, always wear the appropriate Personal Protection Equipment
(PPE) when carrying out sweeping duties or when working on the Machine. This includes:
Safety Gloves (including where necessary cut-resistant knitted Kevlar).
Safety boots or shoes with protective soles and toecaps.
Eye/Face protection (including where necessary full-face mask with under-chin lip).
Earplugs or Ear defenders as appropriate
