OPERATING SAFETY RULES

AND PRACTICES

Operator Responsibility

Safe operation is in the responsibility of the operator.

The operator shall develop safe working habits and also be aware of hazardous conditions in order to protect himself, other personnel, the unit, and other material.

The operator shall be familiar with the operation and function of all controls and instruments before undertaking to operate the unit.

Before operating the unit, operators shall have read and be familiar with the operator s manual for the particular unit being operated and they shall also abide by the safety rules and practices in the following paragraphs.

Before operating any unit, the operator shall be familiar with unusual operating conditions which may require additional safety precautions or special operating instructions.

General

Before starting to operate the unit: A be in operating position;

Bplace directional controls in neutral; C turn switch to ON position.

Do not start or operate the unit, any of its functions or attachments, from any place other than from the designated operator s position.

Keep hands and feet inside the operator s designated area.

Understand unit limitations and operate the unit in a safe manner so as not to cause injury to personnel. Safeguard pedestrians at all times.

A Do not drive a unit up to anyone standing in front of an object.

BEnsure that personnel stand clear of rear swing area before conducting turns and maneuvers.

CExercise particular care at cross aisles, doorways, and other locations where pedestrians may step into the path of travel of the unit.

Before leaving the operator s position: A bring the unit to a complete stop;

Bplace the directional controls in neutral; C apply the parking brake;

In addition, when leaving the unit unattended:

A stop the engine or turn off the controls;

Bif the unit must be on an incline, block the wheels.

Maintain a safe distance from the edge of ramps, platforms, and other similar working surfaces.

When powered units are driven on and off highway trucks or trailers, the brakes on the highway trucks or trailers shall be applied and wheel chocks or other positive mechanical means shall be used to prevent unintentional movement of highway trucks and trailers.

When powered units are driven on and off semitrailers that are not coupled to a tractor, supports may be needed to prevent upending or corner dipping.

Report all accidents involving personnel, building structures, and equipment to the supervisor or as directed.

Do not add to, or modify the unit.

Do not block access to fire aisles, stairways or fire equipment.

Traveling

Observe all traffic regulations including authorized plant speed limits. Under normal traffic conditions, keep to the right. Maintain a safe distance, based on speed of travel, from the unit ahead; keep the unit under control all times.

Yield the right of way to pedestrians and emergency vehicles such as ambulances and fire trucks.

Do not pass another unit traveling in the same direction at intersections, blind spots, or at other dangerous locations.

EN - 1

3

Cross railroad tracks at an angle wherever possible. Do not park closer than 6 ft (1800 mm) to the nearest rail of a railroad track. Keep a clear view of the path of travel and observe for other traffic, personnel, and safe clearances.

Ascend or descend grades slowly, and with caution. Avoid turning, if possible, and use extreme caution on grades, ramps, or inclines; normally travel straight up and down.

Under all travel conditions, operate the unit at a speed that will permit it to be brought to a stop in a safe manner.

Make starts, stops, turns, or direction reversals in a smooth manner so as not shift load and/or overturn the unit.

Do not indulge in stunt driving or horseplay. Slow down for wet and slippery floors. Before driving over a dockboard or bridge plate, be sure that it is properly secured. Drive carefully and slowly across the dockboard or bridge plate, and never exceed its rated capacity.

Do not drive units onto any elevator unless specially authorized to do so. Do not exceed the capacity of the elevator. Approach elevators slowly, and then enter squarely after the elevator car is properly leveled. Once on the elevator, neutralize the controls, shut off power, and set brakes. It is advisable that all other presonnel leave the elevator before the unit is allowed to enter or leave.

When negotiating turns, reduce speed to a safe level consistent with the operating environment. Make the turns smoothly.

Changing and Charging Storage

Batteries

This section shall apply to batteries used in electric units. The two types of batteries commonly used are lead and nickel-iron. They contain corrosive chemical solutions, either acid or alkali, and, therefore , present a chemical hazard. While being charged, they give off hydrogen and oxygen, which, in certain concentrates, are explosive. Battery-charging installations shall be located in areas designated for that purpose; such areas shall be kept free of extraneous combustible materials. Facilities shall be provided for the following:

A Flushing spilled electrolyte; B Fire protection;

CProtecting charging apparatus from damage by trucks; and

DAdequate ventilation for dispersal of fumes from gasing batteries.

Where on-board chargers are used, charging shall be accomplished at locations designated for that purpose, taking into account the electrical requirements of the charger and facilities for fire protection.

Exception: Flushing faclilties shall not be required if charging is accomplished without removing the battery from the vehicle.

Where handling acid concentrates greater than 50 percent acid (above 1.400 specific gravity), an eye-wash fountain shall be provided.

A conveyor, overhead hoist, or equivalent material handling equipment shall be provided for handling batteries.

Chain hoists shall be equipped with loadcabin containers. Where a hand hoist is used, uncovered battries shall be covered with a sheet of plywood or other nonconducting material to prevent the hand chain from shorting on cell connectors or terminals. A properly insulated spreader bar shall be used with any overhead hoist. Reinstalled or new batteries shall meet or exceed the battery type marked on the unit. Reinstalled batteries shall be positioned properly and secured in the unit.

A carboy tilter or siphon shall be provided where acid in carboys is used. When diluting concentrated sulfuric acid to make up electrolyte, the acid ALWAYS shall be added to the water - not the reverse. Battery maintenance personnel shall wear protective clothing such as eye protection, long sleeves, and gloves.

Exception: Removal and replacement of batteries shall not require the use of protective clothing.

Trained and authorized personnel shall change or charge batteries.

Electrical installations shall be in accordance with NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, and any local ordinances.

Units shall be positoned properly and brakes shall be applied before attempting to change or charge batteries.

Where charging batteries, the vent caps shall be kept in place to avoid electrolyte

spray. Care shall be taken to ensure that vent caps are functioning. The battery (or compartment cover(s) shall be open to dissipate heat and gas.

Smoking shall be prohibited in the charging area.

Precautions shall be taken to prevent open flames, sparks, or electric arcs in batterycharging areas.

Tools and other metallic objects shall be kept away from the tops of uncovered batteries.
