Agricultural vehicle driver self-protection attention points

<

Agricultural motor vehicle drivers should pay attention to self-protection during work. To ensure your own safety and health, you need to pay attention to the following five points:

1. Prevent the harm of noise and vibration to the human body

The vibration and noise generated by the normal operation of agricultural locomotives far exceed the safety standards, which will cause the driver's hearing fatigue and distraction. When driving on high-speed or uneven roads, strong vibrations can cause bumps, back pain, swelling of the legs and legs, and sagging stomach.

Precautions: The exhaust pipe should be equipped with a muffler to reduce noise; the seat cushion and backrest with better elasticity should be modified, and gloves should be worn while driving; those who suffer from stomach sag or back pain should not drive the tractor.

2, to prevent diseases caused by exhaust gas

The exhaust gas discharged from the engine contains a large amount of harmful substances such as carbon particles, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, formaldehyde and acrolein. Long-term inhalation of air containing these substances by the driver can cause respiratory illness, eye irritation is prone to conjunctivitis, and carbon monoxide poisoning can occur when the concentration of smoke is high.

Precautionary measures: First, the exhaust pipe should be higher than the top of the cab, and the position of the exhaust pipe can be changed to keep the exhaust gas away from the cab; secondly, when the machine is fixed in the machine room, the door and window should be opened to make the indoor air clear; Third, when debugging the engine, it should be carried out in a well-ventilated place to avoid exhaust gas from entering the respiratory tract.

3, prevent oil poisoning caused by poisoning

Gasoline and diesel are toxic to humans. The anti-explosive agent tetraethyl lead in gasoline can invade the human body through the respiratory tract, digestive tract and skin, strongly irritating the nervous system, causing acute or chronic poisoning. When diesel vapor is inhaled into the lungs, it can cause pneumonia. Often contact with diesel vapor and oil, it can cause contact dermatitis, such as erythema, papules, chickenpox and so on.

Precautionary measures: First, when scrubbing parts with gasoline or diesel, use a wire brush or a brush to avoid direct contact with the gasoline and diesel. If gasoline or diesel is splashed into the eyes, rinse immediately with clean water. Second, it is forbidden to use the mouth suction pipe, especially when the leaded gasoline is refueled. Third, people with respiratory, cardiovascular, and central nervous system diseases should avoid contact with gasoline and diesel to avoid aggravating the condition. Fourth, drivers who are exposed to gasoline and diesel should wash their hands with warm water and soap immediately after work.

4, to prevent antifreeze poisoning

The commonly used antifreeze is glycol water antifreeze. Ethylene glycol has certain toxicity and has a stimulating effect on the human liver, liver, stomach, intestines and other internal organs. At the same time, most of the corrosion inhibitors incorporated in the glycol water antifreeze are toxic substances. Antifreeze poisoning does not appear immediately, and has certain latency. If the antifreeze enters the body, there will be no reaction for 10-12 hours, but then there will be dizziness, headache, nausea, abdominal pain, dry mouth, dry tongue, and cold sweat. After 3-5 days, the toxin damages the kidneys, causing severe damage to kidney function until the urination is completely stopped. If the condition worsens, it can also lead to death.

Precautionary measures: In the early stage of antifreeze poisoning, the stomach should be washed immediately with water or 2% soda water, and promptly sent to hospital for treatment. Antifreeze poisoning mainly enters the body from the mouth, so the driver friend should take anti-virus from the mouth. Always wash your hands after preparing or adding antifreeze.

5, prevent compounding agent poisoning

The compounding agent mainly enters the human body through three ways: human breathing, skin contact and ingestion. The most serious of these is respiratory and skin contact, and the possibility of eating is relatively small.

Preventive measures: First, the operating area should generally be greater than 18 square meters; second, keep the site ventilated, sanitary and well-lit, cover the container, and dispose of the remaining compounding agent and dirt in time; third, after the work is completed, timely Wash your hands; Fourth, avoid direct contact with the adhesive during operation. Wear protective gloves and protective masks. It is best to apply food oil on your hands (when wearing gloves is not easy to handle).
