4. GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

4-1 Only those personnel actively engaged in performing or witnessing this test shall be permitted in the testing area. All specified safety regulations shall be strictly observed.

4-2 To prevent injury or death, ensure that proper test equipment is used during testing.

4-3 The warning signs shall be posted prior to starting the test.

4-4 Safeguarding of personnel and equipment shall be adhered to at all times.

4-5 Comply with Navy Safety and Occupational Health (SOH) manual, OPNAVINST 5100.23 as well as any additional guidance from other applicable policy.

4-6 Comply with ship's regulations when working at or over the side. Wear non-inflatable life preserver, safety harness, and safety lanyard secured to a suitable structure.

4-7 For hinged safety nets, rig temporary lifelines and lashing, as required, prior to lowering safety net frames to the down (horizontal) position.
