[QUOTE="Fido, post: 4466114, member: 80295"] 8 Keys to Lifting and Lowering 1. Get close to the object--work within your Power Zone. 2. Position your feet shoulder width apart, one slightly ahead of the other. 3. Bend at the knees--keep the natural curve of your back. 4. Test the object for weight and shifting contents. 5. Get a firm grip and grasp opposite corners. 6. Lift with a smooth steady motion--don't jerk. 7. Move your feet. Step or pivot--don't twist. 8. Use existing equipment for facilities to assist in the lift or lower. [/QUOTE]
