The Arena of aviation is an environment hostile to the basic aircraft flying in lubricants, fuels and additives used and the same materials in the structure’ Fortunately, someone decided that one might be a good idea to leave the maintenance and handling of these products are aware of the dangers associated with these chemicals and compounds’ The result is a system known as material and safety data sheets (MSDS)
MSDS provide much information about hazards, handling and personal protection measures recommended when working with or around these products’ Notice of the recommendation, and I did not say the type or “right” answer is required’ Let’s face it, if you are trying to retrieve a downed airplane in May not have all the goodies you need, or which should have the room or to get all this in a remote location’ So, as mechanics, we know we must provide better protection for their work’ All I know is to check the dangerous people who seem to be almost obsessive, but it’s how the honest work’ We can not have rubber gloves when a chip for the detection, but almost guarantee that the technician will bring towels or rags and cleaning something’ For some of these jobs are likely to be negligible, but back to the store, which really is not much reason not to protect you as much as possible’
The issue of protection that leads to the following about the safety of maintenance personnel occasional enforcement of an increased risk of prostate cancer by maintenance technicians and pilots’ This sector seems to have its fair share of those who fought or prostate cancer’ Personally, I have seen most of the mechanics and pilots to leave the world of prostate cancer to heart attacks, lung cancer or anything else’ Is it the chemistry, radio waves or something else? I do not know, in the words of Scotty from Star Trek, “I’m an engineer not a doctor Jim! I’m not sure if there has been no medical research in chemical contamination of the blood or mechanical long-term exposure to chemicals Aviation or other hazards’
The time to intervene in the procedures for the repair or manufacture using the exercises, most of the rivets or technical shredders use safety glasses or face or two screens depending on the operation of maintenance’ Of course, there are times when we prefer to see our significant other through an eye, but not always’ Be aware of your actions and protect their eyes’
Aircraft noise about the dangers have been known for years and earplugs are generally available in most stores, if not purchase’ They are not expensive and do not want the constant of the signal or loss of hearing his audience not to use them’ Its use is the second part of the equation for the safety of ear plugs will not be a good session in the office or the toolbox’ When buying a set of earplugs to try to find something small, easy to use and easy to carry with you’ Soon you’ll find through their caps as easy as putting a seat belt and adjusts quickly’
Mechanics with long hair must keep their hair under a hat to go with no holes, torches or the plane of rotation of the components’
Responsibility for maintaining security lies squarely in the hands of the mechanics work, just remember that the responsibility also extends to their family members’ His family, you need a piece, with all fingers, hands and eyes in good health’ Get control of your health to include the examination of the prostate Redouté and live a pleasant life as a technician’
