Work Area Safety
| Be
aware of moving machinery when working near the deck. Skidders and trucks
are moving in and around the deck continuously as well as the swinging of
the loader boom and grapple.
Never approach the loader until the loader operator has seen you and stopped the boom completely. Never stand with a pile of logs to your back. If one should roll you will not be able to react quickly to avoid being struck. Never walk beneath a suspended loader grapple. Hydraulics do fail occasionally. Loader operators should never swing the boom over workers on the ground. Truck drivers need to leave the cab and maintain a safe distance until loaded. Deckmen need to maintain a safe distance from the loader while topping/trimming. All lodged or hung trees need to be pulled down as soon as possible.
