WORKPLACE SAFETY

Be sure to keep sparks, flames and
lighted tobacco away from flammable and
combustible materials like battery gases
and engine fuels. Always have an approved
fire extinguisher within easy reach.
Be sure that all tools and working areas are
properly maintained and ready for use.
Keep work surfaces clean and free of debris
that could get into machine components and
cause damage.
Be sure that your workshop or work area is
properly ventilated and well lit.
Be sure any forklift, overhead crane or other
lifting or supporting device is fully capable of
supporting and stabilizing the weight to be
lifted. Use only chains or straps that are in
good condition and of ample capacity.
Be sure that fasteners intended for one time
use (i.e., cotter pins and self-locking nuts)
are not reused. These components may fail
if they are used a second time.
Be sure to properly dispose of old oil or other
fluids. Use an approved container. Please
be environmentally safe.
