2.4 Safety Instructions for the Use of Tools and Accessories
When completing the tasks, only use
tools that are suitable for the conditions at the place of work and for which safety and the protection
of health are assured with proper use.
Verify proper functionality before use. In the use of tools and supplies, also consider the ergonomic
relationships between the place of work, tools and supplies, workplace organisation, workow and
tasks; this is particularly important in regards to posture during the use of tools and supplies.
Ensure legally prescribed
protective work clothing is worn.
When repair and maintenance tasks must be completed
under raised parts or equipment, ensure suitable precautions are taken to secure the applicable com-
ponents against falling. Equipment used to raise loads must prevent the load from accidentally shifting
in a dangerous manner, dropping in free fall or being accidentally released.
When using lifting platforms, ensure that the B500/B500-S power wheelchair is centred on the platform
and no parts such as the anti-tipper project into the danger area.
