5.WEAR PROPER APPAREL. DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, or jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair and wear non-slip footwear.

6.NEVER OPERATE MACHINERY WHEN TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.

Be mentally alert at all times when running machinery.

7.Only allow trained and properly supervised personnel to operate machinery. Make sure operation instructions are safe and clearly understood.
