Introduction

Safety is the most important element of any repair

procedure. Knowledge of the procedure to be performed

and safe work habits are essential to preventing death,

personal injury, or property damage. Use the following

statements as a common-sense guide to proper work

and tool-use habits.

Prepare for the Job

Preparation is essential to complete a procedure in a

safe and efficient manner.

• Wear proper clothing. Loose or baggy clothing could

become tangled in moving parts.

• Use eye/face protection. Always use proper eye/face

protection to protect your eyes from flying debris or

chemical splatters.

• Wear protective footwear. Wear safety shoes

(steel-toe) to protect your feet from falling objects.

• Use gloves when handling parts. Parts may have

sharp edges or may be hot.

• Remove jewelry prior to servicing electrical systems.

• Prepare proper tools and equipment. Always use the

correct tool for the job. Improper or homemade tools

can cause injury or machine damage.

• Prepare needed parts and materials. Gather the

needed parts and materials before beginning the

procedure.

• Allow machine to cool.Many components can get hot

during operation. Be sure to allow enough time for

components to cool before beginning service.

• Prepare proper work-space lighting. A well-lit work

area can make the job easier.

• Follow procedures and safety warnings. Service

procedures are written to be as safe and efficient as

possible. Never take shortcuts.

• Be prepared for emergencies. Accidents can

happen, even under the best conditions. Fire

extinguishers and first aid kits should be well

maintained and easily accessible.
