You should not wear around powered rotating equipment.

• A. Gloves
• B. Boots
• C. Safety Glasses
• D. Hats

Answer: (A)

Gloves should not be worn around powered rotating equipment because they can easily snag on moving parts like spindles, belts, gears, or conveyors. Even snug gloves can be pulled into the machine, pulling fingers and hands into serious harm. They can also catch on chips, coolant lines, or rough surfaces, making it hard to quickly withdraw a hand. The safer practice is to remove gloves before operating or servicing such equipment and handle parts with tools or clamps when the machine is running. Protective eyewear and sturdy footwear are appropriate safety gear, while a hat can pose a snag risk if loose. The main idea is to avoid anything that can grab or drag your hand into the machinery.
