Kermit: (offscreen) "Workers operating the Bissell 22C1 Cleanview Helix Plus Bagless Vacuum face serious, safety issues. the Bissell 22C1

is designed and built with the operators safety in vacuuming. please make sure that workers are trained to avoid hazardous surroundings and that all vacuuming operations are performed safely. the following guidelines are based on safety principles issues by the state of California Department of Industrial Relations which includes Canadian Center of Occupation Health and Safety, and the indoor power equipment institute."

## Ensuring 22C1 Safety

[Safety music continues playing in background]

Kermit: (offscreen) "The 22C1 is equipped with an operator presence control system that shuts off the vacuum if the operator unplugs the machine with the power on."

Rohan Johnson tests the operator presence control before using his 22C1 vacuum

Kermit: (offscreen) "Keep your 22C1 vacuum in good working order, and inspect them periodically for an insecurely incorrectly attached on board tools."

Rohan Johnson keeps his 22C1 vacuum vacuum in good working order

Kermit: (offscreen) "For example, check in for damaged parts, etc. experienced service personal should inspect your 22C1 for the necessary safety features and overall maintenance at least anally. only qualify personal should conduct the service and repairs. proper safety equipment in place on the 82H1 vacuum is essential that is just the program of your safety program."

Kermit: (offscreen) "Do not operate the 22C1 vacuum that is reclined when the tools are attached."

Rohan Johnson doesn't operate the 22C1 vacuum that is reclined when the tools are attached

Kermit: (offscreen) "Check if your chairs, tables, or seats if you need to."

Rohan Johnson checks if his chairs, tables, or seats if he needs too

Kermit: (offscreen) "Always unplug the cord from the outlet when you're leaving the 82H1 unattended, but never leave the 22C1 vacuum unattended if the tools are attached to the hose."

Rohan Johnson unplugs the vacuum, and waits to make sure all moving parts come to a stop

Kermit: (offscreen) "Do not operate the 22C1 in areas where the wheels are within 5 feet as measured from the outside wheeling of unproductive edges of retaining walls, stairs, drop-offs, or similar locations that present an overturn, or rollover hazard. use a dust buster or a stick vacuum instead."

Rohan Johnson doesn't operate the 22C1 in areas where the wheels are within 5 feet as measured from the outside wheeling of unprotective edges of retaining walls, stairs, drop-offs, elevators, or similar locations that present an overturn, or rollover hazard. instead, he uses a Black and Decker dust buster

Kermit: (offscreen) "When it is necessary to use the 22C1 vacuum near stairs, drop-offs, or elevators, evaluate the terrain in any conditions."

Rohan Johnson evaluates the the terrain in any conditions

Kermit: (offscreen) "Establish a safety zone to ensure the 22C1 is operated at a safe distance from such hazards. sometimes, a distance of 2 vacuuming widths is efficient."

Rohan Johnson establishes a safety zone to ensure the 22C1 is operated at a safe distance from such hazards and stays a least 2 vacuuming widths away

## Training For Workers

[Safety music continues playing in background]

Kermit: (offscreen) "Employers are responsible for providing workers for training before they can operate the 22C1 vacuum. training ensures that each operate is confident to operate a 22C1 vacuum safely."

A worker trains Rohan to use the 22C1 safely

Kermit: (offscreen) "Training must be provided in a language in vocabulary that workers can understand. training should cover topics in the safe operation of the Bissell 22C1 vacuum that workers will use."

Videos show what Kermit describes

Kermit: (offscreen) "These topics include a review of all safety devices in place to ensure that shields are securely in place, and properly used, the important survey of the terrain for hazards prior to vacuuming."

A workers trains Rohan to use the 22C1 and makes sure there are no hazards

Kermit: (offscreen) "How to identify obstacles in the vacuuming path such as large toys, man made hazards, such as walls, soft or wet spots, and the areas of use the 22C1 vacuum is prohibited. reading and understanding the operations, maintenance, limitations in the warning sections of the 22C1 equipment manual."

Rohan Johnson does what Kermit describes

Kermit: (offscreen) "Be particularly alert when backing up or operating near blind corners."

Kermit: (offscreen) "Do not use your vacuum when cleaning on any above floors. always use on board tools when doing above floor cleaning."

Rohan Johnson uses on board tools when doing above floor cleaning

Kermit: (offscreen) "A review of stability and rollover hazards associated with the 22C1 vacuum on surfaces in areas that can pose a risk, locations that present a rollover hazard including rollover risk include loading ramps, wet surfaces, and areas near drop-offs, stairs, doors, and windows."

Videos show what Kermit describes

Kermit: (offscreen) "Employers should also be trained to use all required personal protective equipment (PPE) at all times. hearing and head protection, work boots, etc."
