Consider that small microwave ovens are very effective in cooking foods. If you follow these
guidelines you can minimize exposure of yourself and other people in the operations that you
control.
Physical Safety
Lifting Heavy Objects
Back and other injuries can result from one person trying to lift too much weight.
Use extreme caution when lifting klystrons. Klystrons weigh up to 100 pounds (45 kg) and
require two persons to lift them.
Due to the weight of the drawers, at least two persons are required for installation of the drawers
to the final rack assembly. At least two people are also required for removal of the drawers from
the rack assembly.
Extending Rack Slides
a.
Serious injuries can result from heavily loaded racks or drawers falling forward.
b.
Due to the weight of the drawers, the rack must be securely bolted to the floor in all four
corners to prevent tipping when the drawer slides are extended.
c.
Verify that all slides are securely mounted and that all latches and stops are functioning
properly.
d.
Serious injuries can also result from hands, fingers, or clothing getting caught in slides and
drawers when extended drawers are being pushed back into a rack.
e.
Exercise extreme caution when sliding extended drawers back into a rack.
