AEM Offers New and Updated Equipment Safety Manuals
New online store enhances customer ordering experience
The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) is now offering new equipment safety manuals for pneumatic construction tools, augur boring machines and compact tool carriers.
To broaden the reach of its safety messages, AEM has produced a Spanish edition of the compact tool carrier manual as well as a Russian edition of its hydraulic excavator safety manual. A dozen of the association's other safety manuals are available in Spanish and/or French.
AEM has also significantly updated its aerial platform safety manual, incorporating many of the safety hazard and warnings illustrations from the association's pictorial database.
All AEM safety manuals, videos and related safety and training products are available online in a newly revamped store that makes it easier for customers to choose products, order and track purchases. Some safety materials are offered in downloadable files or in DVD format. AEM members receive discounts on select materials. See store.aem.org.
"It's been a busy year for AEM in the area of safety promotion, both domestically and internationally," noted Larry Buzecky, AEM's director of safety materials. "Helping manufacturers work together for the good of the industry is what AEM is all about, and manufacturers want to share information and ideas for a common goal, the safety of jobsite workers."
AEM safety manuals are produced with easy-to-understand diagrams, signs and charts that illustrate typical worksite and equipment hazards as well as safe practices in equipment preparation, operation, maintenance and transport. The manuals are ideal for group safety sessions on the job or in the classroom as well as individual usage.
AEM's safety and training materials cover more than 60 types of equipment used in agricultural, construction, forestry and utility applications. The association initiated its safety-tools program more than 35 years ago to provide job-proven and time-tested suggestions for promoting safety-conscious attitudes and performance. In addition to accident prevention, benefits include improved worker productivity and less equipment downtime for repairs.
