Corrective Actions Before and After a Fire
In the event of a fire in the machine, the top priority should
be the safety of the operator and workers in the work area.
In the event of a fire at a level that does not endanger
the operator or workers, the following actions should be
taken:
Move the machine well away from any inflammable
materials (e.g., fuel, engine oil, clothes, and bits of wood)
and adjacent buildings.
If the engine is running, it may cause a persistent fire.
Stop the engine without delay.
In the event of an electric short, disconnect the batteries
to eliminate the main ignition source.
In the event of an electricity leak resulting from damage to
the power wiring caused by fire, disconnect the batteries
to eliminate the secondary ignition source.
If a fire becomes too large to control, assess the following
risks :
If the machine is mounted with wheels, the tires may be
·
subject to a risk of combustion and explosion, and high-
temperature particles may splash into the air.
The tank, accumulator, hose and fitting may burst into
·
flames, splashing fuel and scattering particles throughout
the surrounding area.
If you have to handle a machine that has been damaged
by fire or one that is exposed to excessively high heat
after extinguishing a fire, take the following precautions:
Wear thick protective gloves and protective goggles.
Never touch any materials left after combustion with your
bare hands.
Avoid contact with melted polymer materials (e.g.,
plastics).
