and work satisfactorily together. This is to ensure that the equipment or product works as ex-
pected, and to guarantee the safety of yourself and others. Carry out a visual inspection of the
equipment or product before use. Repair or replace damaged or worn parts immediately to
reduce the risk of injury. Grease moving parts and check that all nuts and bolts are tightened.
Repair if necessary. Learn and remember the correct working method. Beginners must work
slowly until they have learned how the machine or product works.
