1.6 Mechanical Safety
Using Ladders
●
Use wooden or fiberglass ladders when you need to perform live working at
heights.
●
When a step ladder is used, ensure that the pull ropes are secured and the
ladder is held firm.
●
Before using a ladder, check that it is intact and confirm its load bearing
capacity. Do not overload it.
●
Ensure that the wider end of the ladder is at the bottom, or protective
measures have been taken at the bottom to prevent the ladder from sliding.
●
Ensure that the ladder is securely positioned. The recommended angle for a
ladder against the floor is 75 degrees, as shown in the following figure. An
angle rule can be used to measure the angle.
●
When climbing a ladder, take the following precautions to reduce risks and
ensure safety:
–
Keep your body steady.
–
Do not climb higher than the fourth rung of the ladder from the top.
–
Ensure that your body's center of gravity does not shift outside the legs
of the ladder.
Drilling Holes
When drilling holes into a wall or floor, observe the following safety precautions:
●
Wear goggles and protective gloves when drilling holes.
●
When drilling holes, protect the equipment from shavings. After drilling, clean
up any shavings that have accumulated inside or outside the equipment.
