Description

 

Manual handling means any transporting or supporting of a load (including lifting,  

putting down, pushing, pulling, carrying or moving) by hand or bodily force.

Scope 

 

This assessment will cover the largest unit within each product range.

For specific weights and dimensions please refer to technical data section.

Main Hazards 

Vision may not be clear due to the size of the products.

Adopting an incorrect method of lifting may cause injury, attempting to lift these 

products will require help from others. (Team lifts)

Control Measures

 

Manual lifting procedure

The lift, key factors in safe lifting are:

a. 

Balance

b. 

Position of back

c. 

Positioning of the arms and body

d. 

The hold

e. 

Taking the lead for team lifts

a.  

Balance - Since balance depends essentially upon the position of the feet, 

they should be apart about hip breadth with one foot advanced giving full 

balance sideways and forward without tension.  In taking up this position, 

lifting is done by bending at the knees instead of the hips and the muscles 

that are brought into use are those of the thigh and not the back.

b.  

Position of back - Straight - not necessary vertical.  The spine must be 

kept rigid, this coupled with a bent knee position, allows the centre line of 

gravity of the body to be over the weight so reducing strain.

c.  

Positioning of arms and body - The further arms are away from the side, 

the greater the strain on the shoulders, chest and back. Keep elbows close 

to the body arms should be straight.

d.  

The hold - Before lifting ensure you have a good hold.

e.   Taking the lead for team lifts- As 

more than one person is required 

for these products ensure that one 

person is taking the lead.  This may 

be you so ensure that each person 

that is helping is made aware of the 

weight and of the items listed within 

this assessment.  Make sure you and 

any others helping know the route 

you intend to take that it is clear of 

any obstructions.  Never jerk the load 

as this will add a little extra force and 

can cause severe strain to the arms, 

back and shoulders.  If there are steps 

involved decide on where you will 

stop and take a rest period.  Move 

smoothly and in unison taking care 

to look and listen to others helping 

with the lift.  Where possible use 

a sack truck to move the product 

over long flat distances, only lift the 

products when necessary.  If in doubt 

stop and get more help. 

Individual capability

Individual capability plays an important 

part in handling these products.  Persons 

above average build and strength will 

find it easier and should be in good 

health.  Persons below average build and 

strength may require more rest periods 

during the handling process.

Pregnant women should not carry out 

this operation.

Persons who are not in good health 

should seek medical advice prior to 

commencing any lifting or manual 

handling operation.

Residual risk

Following the guidelines given above will 

reduce any risk to injury.  

All persons carrying out this operation 

must be fully trained and copies of the 

specific risk assessment made available 

for inspection and use in their training 

process.

Further guidance on Manual Handling 

can be obtained from the Health and 

Safety Executive.  Manual Handling 

Operations Regulations 1992.

MANUAL HANDLING OF APPLIANCE PRODUCTS

APPENDIX

Vast quantities of water are needlessly run off to waste due to Taps, Mixers and Showers 

discharging flow rates far in excess of the rates required for them to perform their duties.

The contrasting flow rates shown on this leaflet clearly illustrate the savings that can 

be made whilst still providing a good performance. 

British made Aquaflow Regulators provide constant flow rates by automatically 

compensating for supply pressure changes between 1 bar & 10 bars.

To facilitate installation into the wide range of plumbing equipment which is 

encountered in the U.K, Four Fixing Options are available:-

Options For Showers

1.  MXF “DW” Range - For fitting behind Fixed Shower Heads or onto Flexible Hoses 

for Handshowers (preferably onto the inlet end when lightweight hoses are used).

2.  Compression Fitting Range. “In Line” regulators as in Option 4 for Taps & Mixers.
