Personnel should wear personal protective equipment, which will
be referenced separately in the individual sections of this manual,
while working on and with the machine.
Personal protective equipment refers to the following:
Protective clothing
Protective clothing is tight-fitting, tear-resistant clothing with tight
sleeves and no protruding parts.
Fall arrest safety harness
The fall arrest safety harness reduces the risk of injury when falling
from a great height.
There are attachment points on the machine's base frame which
serve for the attachment of a fall arrest safety harness.
At working heights of 2.00 m or more, GROVE recommends the
use of a fall arrest safety harness. At working heights above
3.00 m, using a fall arrest safety harness is a legal requirement.
Hearing protection
Hearing protection protects against hearing loss due to noise.
