Electrically Insulated Gloves
If electrically insulated gloves are not available locally, they can be obtained through Vermeer Corporation. A
one-pair purchase voucher is supplied with the machine.
Rubber electrically insulated gloves, when in good condition and correctly used, help protect the wearer from
serious injury, death, and electrical burns. Gloves must be at least Class 2, with a voltage rating of 17,000 volts
or more. Wear leather protectors over gloves. They provide protection for the gloves, but do not provide any
protection against serious injury, death or other potential dangers from electric shocks or burns.
The operator is not required to wear electrically insulated gloves while seated on this self-contained directional
drill unit. Anyone assisting with installation of rack anchor stakes or assisting the operator during drilling must
wear electrically insulated gloves and boots.
Correct care of gloves is essential to wearer safety.
•
Visually inspect gloves and leather protectors prior to each use (see the following instructions).
•
Do not fold gloves. Folding causes dangerous cracking damage. Store gloves in glove bag when not in use.
•
Do not store gloves inside out. This causes damage from ozone and severely strains the rubber.
•
Keep gloves clean. The gloves will be more comfortable to wear, and any damage will be more visible.
•
Prevent snags. Do not wear rings, watches, jewelry, or other sharp objects on hands or arms when wearing
gloves.
•
Prevent contact with wood or metal splinters or other sharp objects which may damage gloves.
•
Prevent contact with chemicals, which can damage gloves. If contact is made with chemicals, wipe gloves off
immediately. Clean gloves with a mild soap, then rinse with clear water and let them air dry.
The ASTM In-Service specifications call for an electrical retest of gloves at a test lab every six months. This test
is to recertify the non-conductivity of the gloves. Contact your Vermeer dealer for the location of the test lab in
your area or a listing of the test labs.
