Manual lifting
1. STOP and THINK . PLAN the LIFT
๏ƒ˜ where is the load going to be place? Use appropriate handling aids if
possible. Do you need help with the load? Remove obstructions such as
discarded wrapping materials. For a long lift โ€“ such as floor to shoulder
height- consider resting the load mid-way on a table or bench to change
grip.
2. Place the feet.
๏ƒ˜ Have the feet apart, giving a balanced and stable base lifting(tight
skirts and unsuitable footwear make this difficult). Have the leading leg
as far forward as is comfortable.
3. Get a firm grip.
๏ƒ˜ Try to keep the arms within the boundary formed by the legs. The
optimum position and nature of the grip depends on the circumstances
and individual preference, but it must be secure. A hook grip is less
fatiguing than keeping (using) the fingers straight. If it is necessary to
vary the grip as the lift proceeds, do this as smoothly as possible.
4. Donโ€™t jerk.
๏ƒ˜ Carry out the lifting movement smoothly, raising the chin as the lift
begins, keeping control of the load. Donโ€™t twist the trunk when turning
to the side.
5. Keep close to the load.
๏ƒ˜ Keep the load close to the trunk for as long as possible. Keep the
heaviest side of the load next to the trunk. If a close approach to the
load is not possible, try sliding it towards you before attempting to lift.
6. Put down, then adjust.
๏ƒ˜ If precise positioning of the load is necessary, put it down first, then
slide it into the desired position.
