THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS

The use of a brake drum handler is subject to certain hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means, but only by the exer-

cise of intelligence, care, and common sense. It is therefore essential to have owners and personnel involved in the use and operation

of handlers who are careful, competent, trained, and qualiﬁed in the safe operation of the equipment and its proper use. Examples of

hazards are dropping, tipping or slipping of loads caused primarily by improperly securing loads, overloading, off centered loads, use

on other than hard level surfaces, and using equipment for a purpose for which it was not designed.
