Study Notes

Machine Safety

  • Before cleaning or adjusting any machine, always unplug and/or lock it out.
  • This is a crucial safety step to prevent accidents and injuries.

Lifting Safely

  • When lifting an object from the floor, maintain a straight back and bend your knees.
  • This posture helps distribute weight evenly, preventing strain on your back.
  • Avoid lifting with a bent back and straight knees, as this puts excessive stress on your spine.

Controlled Product Symbol

  • The image indicates the type of material a product contains.

Straining Utensils

  • Sieve, conical strainer, and colander are all utensils used for straining soups and sauces.
  • Parchment is a type of paper and is not a straining utensil.
