Maintenance Requiring Two People

Identify maintenance actions that require two people to perform the repair. Two people are required
when:
• A repair involves the risk of injury that would require one person to perform first aid or call for
emergency support. An example is work around high-voltage sources. If an accident occurs to one
person, another person may be required to remove power and call for emergency aid.
• Heavy lifting is involved. Use the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)
lifting equation to determine whether one or two persons are required to lift a system component
when it must be removed and replaced in its rack.
3.2.4

Equipment Racks

Lift equipment racks without the use of lifting equipment only when sufficient personnel are available to
ensure that regulations covering health and safety are not breached. Use an appropriately powered
mechanical lifting apparatus for moving and lifting the equipment racks. In addition, comply with any
local regulations that govern the use of lifting equipment.

WARNING: Crush Hazard could result in death, personal injury, or equipment damage.
Equipment racks can weigh up to 360 kg (800 lb). See the following instructions for proper
lifting procedures.
