6.
Adjust the machine speed and travel path to minimize the
vibration level:
•
Drive around obstacles and rough terrain conditions;
•
Slow down when it is necessary to go over rough
terrain.
7.
Minimize vibrations for long work cycle or long distance
travelling: (for wheeled machine)
•
Use machines equipped with suspension systems;
•
Use lift arm suspensions on wheel loaders;
•
If no suspension system is available, reduce speed to
prevent bouncing;
•
Haul machines long distances between worksites.
8.
Back pain associated with whole-body vibrations can be
caused by other risk factors. To minimize the risk of back
pain:
•
Adjust the seat and controls to achieve good posture;
•
Adjust the mirrors to minimize twisted posture;
•
Provide breaks to reduce long periods of sitting;
