21. SAFETY JOHN DROZD, 315-772-3022
• SPRING CLEAN UP: Check working surfaces where you will be mowing for debris that was plowed or blown into your yard that
can damage equipment or be ejected and become a projectile. Prior to operating landscaping equipment, ensure it is in safe/good
working order. Proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) includes eye/hearing protection, over the ankle shoes or boots, gloves,
long pants and long sleeved shirts, etc. Do not operate equipment in close proximity to people/pets to preclude projectile
injury.

9. • BIKE AND SKATING SEASON: Now is a good time to go over rules of the road to keep them safe. Discuss "Stop, Look and Listen"
prior to entering/crossing roadways, obeying traffic/warning signs and the requirement to wear bike helmets. Other appropriate
equipment and clothing to avoid injuries include long sleeved jackets/shirts, long pants and knee pads. Adjust bicycle seats so they
can comfortably pedal, brake and place their feet on the pavement, this is important for safe riding.
• ITS GRILLING TIME: Follow all safety instructions for charcoal and propane grills. Propane tanks and hoses should be inspected
for leaks, deterioration and tightness of fittings. Check propane ports for wasp or other nests to permit safe flow of gas and prevent
a leak of flammable mist. Operate grills well away from your quarters (min 15 feet) and never grill in garages or under
entranceways.
