tion of barriers and warning signs, stationing of attendants to keep personnel out of re stricted localities, and, in extreme cases, complete closing of the areas Safe exposure times and safe practices can be established through measurement and control, and by profiting from past experience Work with radiation can and should be so planned and managed that radiation ex posures of employees and of the general public are kept to a minimum No radio active matenals which can result in exposures above guide levels should be released through contaminated air or water, through loss of control over contaminated waste materials, equipment or shipments, or by employees unknowingly leaving the place of work with contamination on their persons, clothing, or shoes Consider the type of work involving radiation The literature on radiation protection is an invaluable aid (see "References" at the end of this chapter) It is important to realize that any one of a wide range of operations may be under discussion, and that safety measures applying in one case may be inappropriate for another The following examples point this out Processing of feed matenals for nuclear reactors and operations includes large-scale mining and processing of ores containing useful radioactive matenals Feed streams for separation and punfication involve tons of matenals, with a small percentage of radio active matenals which are then further proc essed and punfied The Atomic Energy Commission is closely associated with this Certain kinds of work involve appli cations using radiation from radium, thonum, and other naturally occurring matenals which are not controlled exclusively by the AEC Some of these matenals are used, for example, in luminous instrument dials, in gas mantles, in certain ceramic colors, and as radiation sources Radiation fields occur in the operation of such devices as industrial, fnedical, and dental X-ray machines and X-ray diffraction machines, and cyclotrons and other particle accelerators Relatively small amounts of radiation are emitted in electronic tubes, television receivers, and electron micro scopes (See NBS Handbooks 55, 76, 93 Protection Against Betatron-synchrotron Radiation up to 100 men.

Motorized Equipment GENERAL SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CHANGING AND CHARGING STORAGE BATTERIES 1 Battery charging installations should be located m areas designated for that purpose Provisions should be made for flushing and neutralizing spilled electrolyte, for fire protection, and for protection of charging ap paratus from being damaged by trucks These areas should be provided with adequate ventilation for dispersal of fumes from gassing batteries 2 To avoid strains from manual handling of heavy awkward loads, a roller conveyer and/or a suitable overhead hoist or equivalent materials han dling equipment should be provided for the changing of batteries A carboy tilter or siphon is recommended for handling acid 3 Electrical apparatus installations should conform to the National Elec trical Code (ASI Standard Cl-1965 and NFPA Standard No 70), and any local ordinances 4 Only properly trained and authorized individuals should change or charge batteries 5 Trucks should be properly positioned and brakes set before attempting to change or charge batteries 6 When charging batteries, keep the vent caps m place to avoid electrolyte spray 7 Smoking should be prohibited as a precaution against ignition of released hydrogen In addition, keep tools from the top of the battery to avoid short circuits 8 Always pour acid into water--not water into acid (The heat of dilution is so great, that water poured on acid will boil and spatter) Treat acid bums (lead-acid batteries) with baking soda and water Treat electrolyte burns (alkaline batteries) with vinegar and water Fig 46-10 Courtesy The Industrial Truck Association Rubber cement and flammable solvents used for patching inner tubes, and casing compounds used tor filling tne cuts, should be kept in satets cans Electnc heating elements used for vul canizing or branding tires should be in spected regularly Defective winng should be replaced Where power-dnven rasps or scrapers are used for casings or inner tubes, the opera tors should be required to wear goggles (see Chapter 32, "Hand and Portable Power Tools") A local exhaust system should be applied to these machines to keep the fine rubber dust out of the workroom air This dust should be collected because deposits make walkways very shpperv Fire prevention Since fire is a hazard m the operation of heavy-duty trucks, they should be equipped with Type B-C fire extinguishers, listed by the Underwriters' Laboratories for use on burning oil, gasoline, grease, and electrical The extinguisher may be placed in a conveni ent location in the cab or on the running 1554
