Check safety the working conditions of cleaning equipment
Learning Objectives: After reading the information sheet, you must be able to:
1. Check the working condition of the cleaning machines.
2. Observe safety in checking the condition of the cleaning machine.
Repairs and maintenance
There is always the chance that someone in the workplace will not know
enough about a particular machine to be able to see that is not complete.
Apart from that, the dismantled part may be hidden.
Partly dismantled machines should have the power locked off, and notice
should be fixed to a prominent part of the machine: “Danger. Do not start
machine under repair.”
Electrical Repairs are for electricians. Only certified electricians should attempt
electrical repairs adjustments.
Portable machine:
It is easy to under-estimate the damaging and destructive power of portable
power machine when its power is compared to that of any of the fixed machines.
But the portable machine’s potential for danger lies in the simple fact that it is
portable.
There are two safety areas to be concerned with:
1. Electrical safety
2. mechanical safety
Electrical safety watch for the following points:
Earthing. There are two alternatives. The tool must be double insulated, or else it
must be properly earthen. Management should ensure that all tools are regularly
checked on this point by certified electrician.
Cables. Must not be allowed to become worn. They are best suspended over aisles
and work areas, but if they have to run at ground level, they should be protected
by board each side, or bridge by runways. No extension cable should run more
than 36 meter from fuse to tool or machine.

Mechanical Safety:
a. Check before using tool that all fitting and removable parts have been
properly tightened. A loose screw can cause havoc.
b. Leave the guards where they have been fitted, so that they can do
their job.
c. Switch off the machine and unplug it before you do any cleaning or
adjustment.
d. Protect your eyes from flying swart, chips, knots and dust. Just as it
is important not to under-estimate the power tool, nor should you
under-estimate the need for the operator to have a good footing, and
to be in a steady and comfortable position. The essential thing is to be
able to hold the implement firmly without having strain.

Identification and Treatment of Common Hazards in the Work
Area
1. Identify common hazards in the work area.
2. Identify treatment on common hazards in the work area.
COMMON HAZARDS IN THE WORK AREA AND TREATMENT
A. FLOORS AND OTHER AREAS
A. Clean up spills such as oil on floors immediately. Floors should be
free of debris and accumulation of dust. Areas that cannot be cleaned
continuously, such as entranceways, should have anti-slip flooring.
B. Replaced any worn, ripped or damage flooring that posses a tripping
hazard. Repair all trap doors and railings. Any equipment or tools not
in use should be removed from the work area.
C. Guard floor openings. Trap doors, cages or railings around hay chutes
will prevent anyone from accidentally falling down.
D. Cut down and remove weeds and brush from around buildings. They
can hide tripping hazards.
B. MAINTAIN LIGHT FIXTURES
A. All buildings and yards should be adequately lighted. Dirty light fixtures
reduce essential light levels. Light fixtures in storage areas containing
combustible materials should be protected against breaking explosion.
C. AISLES AND STAIRWAYS
Aisles and stairways should be clearly marked and kept clear of objects that
can cause trips and falls.
Aisles should be wide enough to accommodate people and vehicle
comfortably and safely. Warning signs and mirror can improve sight lines and
blind corners. Properly arranged aisles encourage people to use them so that they
do not take “short cuts” or “bottleneck” storage. Stairways an aisle also require
adequate lighting.
D. SPILL CONTROL
The best way to control spill is to stop them before they happen. Regular
cleaning and maintaining machine and equipment is one way to do this. When
spills do occur, it is important to follow clean up procedures as indicated on the
Material Safety Data Sheet.
Spills must be clean up immediately. Absorbent material is useful for wiping
up greasy, oily or other liquid spills. Used absorbents must be disposed of properly
and safely.

E. TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT
Keeping tools neat and orderly can be very important to everyone’s safety,
whether in the tool room, on rack, in the yard, or in the bench.
Returning tools promptly after use reduces the chance of them being
misplaced or lost. Trainees should regularly inspect, clean and repair all tools and
take any damaged or worn tools out of service.
F. MAINTENANCE
A good maintenance program provides for the inspection, maintenance,
upkeep and repair tools, equipment, machines, and processes.
Maintenance involves keeping building, equipment and machinery in safe
efficient working order and in good repair. This includes maintaining sanitary
facilities and regular painting and cleaning walls, maintaining windows, damaged
doors, defective plumbing and broken floor surfaces.
G. WASTE DISPOSAL
The regular collection, grading and sorting of scrap contributes to good
housekeeping practices. Allowing materials to build up on the floor wastes time
and energy since additional time is required for cleaning it up.
Placing scrap containers near where the waste is produce encourage orderly
waste disposal and makes collection easier. All waste receptacles should be clearly
labeled. (Recyclable glass, plastic, metal, toxic and flammable, etc.) All waste
containers should be emptied regularly.
H. STORAGE
Stored materials should allow at least one meter (or about 3 feet) of clear
space under sprinkler heads.
Stacking cartons and drums on a firm foundation and cross tying them,
where necessary reduces the chance of their movement. Stored materials should
not obstruct aisles, stairs, exits, fire equipment, emergency eyewash fountains,
emergency shower, or first aid stations.
All storage areas should be clearly marked.

Republic Act (RA) No. 8749 otherwise known as the Clean Air Act (CAA).
The government is promoting the reduction of Air Pollution. As a chemical user we
have to use and dispose chemicals with care.
Work safely with chemicals
Working with chemicals can be a tricky process. If you stop to think about
it, we all use chemicals in some shape or form every single day. Whether we clean
our bathrooms, kitchen, chemicals are involved. Many of us use harsh chemicals
that come labeled with warnings, as well. In order to stay safe when using any
form of chemical agent, it's important to keep the following pointers in mind.
1. Know what you're working with. One of the fastest ways to get hurt
by chemicals is by being unaware of what you're using. Many
chemical agents react differently when combined together, so it's
important to know what you're handling. Just like water and oil don't
mix, neither do many chemicals. Do your research. Read labels. Be
prepared before you use any kind of chemical.
2. Wear rubber or latex gloves. The only way to stay 100% safe when
handling chemicals is by protecting your hands. If you are handling a
certain chemical and plan to work with a new one soon after, throw
out the previous gloves and put on some fresh ones. By avoiding
Date Developed:

NC ll
Issued by:
cross-contamination, you'll ensure a safe and non-threatening
experience.
3. Protect your eyes! Safety goggles are a must when working with
chemicals of any kind. Many chemicals emit strong vapors that can
absorb into your eyes when you breathe them in. This can be
especially dangerous if you wear contact lenses. Always wear fully
covered, plastic goggles when you open any chemical bottle.
4. Handle the chemicals carefully. The last thing you want is a

chemical burn, so avoid sloshing any form of chemical on your skin. If
you happen to get any chemicals on your skin, rinse immediately with
cold water for several minutes. If you notice a rash or burn appearing,
you may want to head to the hospital or call the Center for Disease
Control and Prevention.
5. Change your clothes after working with chemicals. You may even
wish to toss the clothes you used if any chemicals spilled on them.
The last thing you want is your whole load of laundry to go away from
the spread of one chemical.
6. Always work in a well-ventilated area. Blow some fans. Work

outside if possible. The more fresh air you have to breathe, the better
your lungs will withstand harsh chemicals. Wear a covering over your
mouth and nose if you're working with a highly concentrated
chemical. Ex. Working with acids in the washroom.
7. Label chemical containers and bottles. Many chemical users place

liquids or powders in non-labeled containers for storage purposes, and
at times, this can be dangerous. You want to keep a record of what
substance is in which bottle, as to avoid contamination or improper
use.

How to dispose used Chemical
1. Dispose used chemicals.
Disposing of chemicals and containers
When disposing of chemicals and containers:
1. Check the label for advice on disposal of chemicals or containers.
2. Triple rinse empty containers to remove all traces of the chemical.
3. Uncap, puncture and crush all rinsed containers. Do not burn containers.
4. Ask your local government authority about collection requirements.
The chosen disposal site should:

1. Be sited to avoid seepage and run off which may contaminate other areas.
2. Have a minimum depth of at least half a metre and a maximum depth of one
metre.
3. Be in an area where there is no danger of contaminating dwellings,
underground water, surface water, crops or livestock.
4. Be level, preferably with a clay liner and have lime spread across the
bottom.
5. Have a heavy duty plastic pit liner which may be used where there is risk
that chemicals may leach from the immediate area of the pit.
Drums, other packages and containers marked 'returnable' should be

returned to the supplier.
Please do not put liquid chemicals into your rubbish bin, once the waste is
inside the collection vehicle it is crushed and there is a risk that the chemical will
leak out of the vehicle and on to the road. You should also make sure you do not
pour chemicals or oil down your sink or in to street drains as it can pollute local
water courses.
When disposing of chemicals please follow the advice below:

1. Leave the chemical and hazardous materials in their original container.
2. If they are not in their original container, use a clearly marked suitable
storage method – for advice contact Waste Management.
3. Store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children.
4. Never pour hazardous household waste down the drain.
5. Never mix chemicals.

Laws on General Workplace Safety
1. Practice occupational health safety.
Occupational safety and health
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Occupational Health and Safety is a cross-disciplinary area concerned with

protecting the safety, health and welfare of people engaged in work or employment.
The goal of all occupational safety and health programs is to foster a safe work
environment. [1] As a secondary effect, it may also protect co-workers, family
members, employers, customers, suppliers, nearby communities, and other
members of the public who are impacted by the workplace environment. It may
involve interactions among many subject areas, including occupational medicine,
occupational (or industrial) hygiene, public health, safety engineering, chemistry,
health physics, ergonomics, toxicology, epidemiology, environmental health,
industrial relations, public policy, sociology, and occupational health psychology.
Definition
Since 1950, the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the World
Health Organization (WHO) have shared a common definition of occupational
health. It was adopted by the Joint ILO/WHO Committee on Occupational Health
at its first session in 1950 and revised at its twelfth session in 1995. The definition
reads: "Occupational health should aim at: the promotion and maintenance of the
highest degree of physical, mental and social well-being of workers in all
occupations; the prevention amongst workers of departures from health caused by
their working conditions; the protection of workers in their employment from risks
resulting from factors adverse to health; the placing and maintenance of the
worker in an occupational environment adapted to his physiological and
psychological capabilities; and, to summarize, the adaptation of work to man and
of each man to his job."
Reasons for safety and health
The reasons for establishing good occupational safety and health standards
are frequently identified as:
Date Developed:
December 9, 2019
NC ll
Issued by:
 Moral - An employee should not have to risk injury or death at work, nor
should others associated with the work environment.
 Economic - many governments realize that poor occupational safety and
health performance results in cost to the State (e.g. through social security
payments to the incapacitated, costs for medical treatment, and the loss of
the "employability" of the worker). Employing organizations also sustain
costs in the event of an incident at work (such as legal fees, fines,
compensatory damages, investigation time, lost production, lost goodwill
from the workforce, from customers and from the wider community).
 Legal - Occupational safety and health requirements may be reinforced in
civil law and/or criminal law; it is accepted that without the extra
"encouragement" of potential regulatory action or litigation, many organizations
would not act upon their implied moral obligations.
National implementing legislation

Different states take different approaches to legislation, regulation, and
enforcement.
In the European Union, member states have enforcing authorities to ensure
that the basic legal requirements relating to occupational safety and health are
met. In many EU countries, there is strong cooperation between employer and
worker organizations (e.g. Unions) to ensure good OSH performance as it is
recognized this has benefits for both the worker (through maintenance of health)
and the enterprise (through improved productivity and quality). In 1996 the
European Agency for Safety and Health at Work was founded.
Member states of the European Union have all transposed into their
national legislation a series of directives that establish minimum standards on
occupational safety and health. These directives (of which there are about 20 on a
variety of topics) follow a similar structure requiring the employer to assess the
workplace risks and put in place preventive measures based on a hierarchy of
control. This hierarchy starts with elimination of the hazard and ends with
personal protective equipment.
In the UK, health and safety legislation is drawn up and enforced by the
Health and Safety Executive and local authorities (the local council) under the
Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974. Increasingly in the UK the regulatory
trend is away from prescriptive rules, and towards risk assessment. Recent major
changes to the laws governing asbestos and fire safety management embrace the
concept of risk assessment.
In the United States, the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970
created both the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)
Date Developed:

and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).[2] OSHA, in the
U.S. Department of Labor, is responsible for developing and enforcing workplace
safety and health regulations. NIOSH, in the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services, is focused on research, information, education, and training in
occupational safety and health.[3]
OSHA have been regulating occupational safety and health since 1971.
Occupational safety and health regulation of a limited number of specifically
defined industries was in place for several decades before that, and broad
regulations by some individual states was in place for many years prior to the
establishment of OSHA.
In Canada, workers are covered by provincial or federal labour codes
depending on the sector in which they work. Workers covered by federal legislation
(including those in mining, transportation, and federal employment) are covered
by the Canada Labour Code; all other workers are covered by the health and safety
legislation of the province they work in. The Canadian Centre for Occupational
Health and Safety (CCOHS), an agency of the Government of Canada, was created
in 1978 by an Act of Parliament. The act was based on the belief that all
Canadians had "...a fundamental right to a healthy and safe working
environment." CCOHS is mandated to promote safe and healthy workplaces to
help prevent work-related injuries and illnesses.
In Malaysia, the Department of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH)
under the Ministry of Human Resource is responsible to ensure that the safety,
health and welfare of workers in both the public and private sector is upheld.
DOSH is responsible to enforce the Factory and Machinery Act 1969 and the
Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994.
Hazards, risks, outcomes
The terminology used in OSH varies between states, but generally speaking:
 A hazard is something that can cause harm if not controlled.

 The outcome is the harm that results from an uncontrolled hazard.
 A risk is a combination of the probability that a particular outcome will
occur and the severity of the harm involved.
“Hazard”, “risk”, and “outcome” are used in other fields to describe e.g.
environmental damage, or damage to equipment. However, in the context of OSH,
“harm” generally describes the direct or indirect degradation, temporary or
permanent, of the physical, mental, or social well-being of workers. For example,
repetitively carrying out manual handling of heavy objects is a hazard. The
outcome could be a musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) or an acute back or joint
Date Developed:

injury. The risk can be expressed numerically (e.g. a 0.5 or 50/50 chance of the
outcome occurring during a year), in relative terms (e.g. "high/medium/low"), or
with a multi-dimensional classification scheme (e.g. situation-specific risks).
Risk assessment
Further information: Risk assessment Risk assessment in public health
Modern occupational safety and health legislation usually demands that a
risk assessment be carried out prior to making an intervention. It should be kept
in mind that risk management requires risk to be managed to a level which is as
low as is reasonably practical.
This assessment should:
 Identify the hazards

 Identify all affected by the hazard and how
 Evaluate the risk
 Identify and prioritize appropriate control measures
The calculation of risk is based on the likelihood or probability of the harm

being realized and the severity of the consequences. This can be expressed
mathematically as a quantitative assessment (by assigning low, medium and high
likelihood and severity with integers and multiplying them to obtain a risk factor,
or qualitatively as a description of the circumstances by which the harm could
arise.
The assessment should be recorded and reviewed periodically and whenever
there is a significant change to work practices. The assessment should include
practical recommendations to control the risk. Once recommended controls are
implemented, the risk should be re-calculated to determine of it has been lowered
to an acceptable level. Generally speaking, newly introduced controls should lower

Disposing of chemicals and containers
When disposing of chemicals and containers:
 Check the label for advice on disposal of chemicals or containers.

 Triple rinse empty containers to remove all traces of the chemical.
 Uncap, puncture and crush all rinsed containers. Do not burn
containers.
 Ask your local government authority about collection requirements.
The chosen disposal site should:
 Be sited to avoid seepage and run off which may contaminate other
areas.
 Have a minimum depth of at least half a metre and a maximum depth
of one metre.
 Be in an area where there is no danger of contaminating dwellings,
 Be level, preferably with a clay liner and have lime spread across the
bottom.
 Have a heavy duty plastic pit liner which may be used where there is
risk that chemicals may leach from the immediate area of the pit.

SAFE USE AND DISPOSAL OF HOUSEHOLDCHEMICALS

Household chemical products must be used according to directions and
they must also be disposed of safely. Safe disposal of householdchemicals means
that they are disposed of in a way that will not:

HOUSEKEEPING
December 9,2019
NC ll Issued by:
00
• harm people.
• harm the environment.
Most household wastes are safe, can be disposed of safely and most are
intended to go down the drain in normal use. The best way to dispose of most
household chemical products is to use as much of the product as possible. If
some remains, dilute with water and flush down the drain.
Household chemical products should NOT be mixed, so do not put more

than one product down the drain at a time. Hazardous waste products include
acids, paints, poisons and solvents. Buy only what you need and use and reuse as
much as possible. Allow liquid wastes to dry out whenever possible. Leave paint
can lids open to dry leftover paint, then put the cans in the trash. NEVER dispose
of hazardous wastes down the sink drain or into the sewer system. Do not burn or
dump any hazardous wastes on the ground, as waste that is dumped on the
ground or into a drain eventually flows to surface and ground water sources where
it can pollute drinking water. Burning some waste products can release toxic
fumes or gases into the air.
Follow these suggested guidelines for disposing of products safely:
1. Acids and caustic products. Acids and caustics are found in some cleaning
products like drain openers. Use these materials completely according to
label directions. These products are usable even when a few years old.
2. Aerosols. Empty aerosol containers completely before disposing with other

trash to prevent an explosion hazard.
3. Antifreeze. Store out of reach of animals and children, as they are attracted
to the sweet taste of anti-freeze. Don’t pour used antifreeze on the ground—
dilute it thoroughly with water and pour down the drain.
4. Bleach. Try to use up the entire product. NEVER mix chlorine bleach with
ammonia or acidic products such as drain, toilet bowl, or metal cleaners, as
toxic fumes (strong enough to be fatal) will result.
5. Cleaners and polishes. Cleaners and polishes (rug, floor, and oven cleaners
and furniture polish) should be used completely whenever possible. Seal
empty containers and dispose of them with the rest of your garbage.

2. Disinfectants. Use the products completely according to label instructions
and with caution.
3. Gasoline. Avoid buying more than you can use at one time. Use completely
by mixing old gasoline with fresh gasoline. Store in an approved container in
a cool, dry place.
4. Insecticides. Use insecticides completely according to label directions. If

you can’t use the material, save to dispose of on a hazardous collection day
in your community. NEVER reuse the containers. Dispose of excess
according to label directions.
5. Paint. If possible use the product completely or mix with other paints to
use. Allow any remaining paint to dry out and harden. Once the paint is
solid, put it in the trash.
6. Solvent. Clean used solvents (paint thinner, turpentine, varnish) by

allowing the paint or direct particles to settle out in a container. Drain off
the clear liquid for re-use. Do not dump remaining material onto soil or
down sewers, drains or the toilet.

Proper disposal of Garbage
1. Follow the procedure in disposing garbage
2. Observe safety in disposing garbage.
Garbage used to be that material you put on the curb and had done with.
Today, environmental concerns and lack of landfill space have made us reassess
the stuff we toss. Although recycling and other strategies may cost a little more in
time and effort, the rewards are measured in conservation of natural resources
and limiting the release of toxic substances into the environment. With more and
more articles being made of synthetic materials, "taking out the garbage" is no
longer a simple matter.
We never realize how simple practices at home can go a long way in securing
a clean and green environment for us. Proper disposal of domestic garbage with
segregation of recyclable waste is one such practice which if put into practice in
our daily life can really work wonders.
Instructions
All you need is three dustbins instead of one. One for your usual day to day
waste or the so called “biodegradable” waste, two for the “non-biodegradable
waste, three for recyclable waste, Following this practice you would also get to
know how much of plastic you use and you can try to reduce the usage of plastics.
Here are some tips to do so.

HOUSEKEEPING

1. Bin 1, for Biodegradable waste, leftover foods, vegetable peels and other
biodegradable waste that can be use to compost fertilizer for vegetable
garden. Composting provides soil conditioner and amendments that reduce
the need for chemical fertilizers.
2. Bin 2 for non-biodegradable waste. All waste that cannot be broken down
by other living organisms like broken glass, plastics, candy wrapper, etc.
20.
3. Bin 3 for recyclables, plastics and other recyclable waste separately (plastic
bags, wrappers, empty milk packets, Paper waste etc.) and either pass them
to recycling units or give them to garbage collectors. Now a day we get
everything wrapped in plastic wrappers right from fruits and vegetables, so
it’s a good habit to collect these wrappers separately after using the
contents.

4. Some of these wastes are also classified as hazardous wastes. Are those
that are potentially dangerous and can cause diseases, fire, etc. The
hazardous wastes include toxic wastes. Toxic wastes are those that are
poisonous in nature. These are Hazardous wastes that need another bin.
21.
5. Sell your stuff. Toys, appliances, household items and furniture all change
hands at these spring rituals, providing an outing as well as an opportunity
to pick up needed items at reasonable prices. Antiques dealers and parts
dealers prowl them, and as technology becomes ever-more disposable,
hobbyists who disassemble televisions and computers and reclaim precious
metals offer to take them off people's hands. The hobbyists make enough to
support their hobby and the seller saves a fee at the recycling center.

6. Award your garbage to private or public trash collectors as a last resort, not
a first choice. It's not that they don't need the business; it's just that they're
running out of landfill. And there are just so many things that can be
reused, adapted, composted or recycled. After reducing, selling off and re-
purposing as much as possible, you'll still have garbage. Check to see where
your trash is being dumped. Some landfills are used to produce methane
gas and other bio fuels. Many pick-up services run recycling businesses on
the side and manage their own landfills. Find out if your city's "bulk waste"
and "compost" drop off sites recycle cooperatively with a local scavenger
service. Reward companies that perform "best practice" business with your
patronage.

Proper Cleaning in Carpeted Stairs
1. Follow the procedure in vacuuming carpeted stairs
2. Observe safety in vacuuming carpeted stairs.
Procedures
1. Locate an electrical outlet close to the stairwell, preferably somewhere at the

top. It's okay to use an extension cord if your vacuum's cord won't reach
from the outlet, but make sure the extension cord is heavy-duty extension
and the outlet is grounded.
2. Attach the smallest nozzle to the canister hose. This attachment is usually
straight with an angled tip to easily get into corners and crevices. Your
vacuum may also have come with a special attachment specially for cleaning
stairs. If so, attach that now. If not, you may be able to purchase it as a
add-on attachment. Check with your vacuum cleaners manufacturer to see
what stores may carry it.
3. Begin at the top stair and clean the corners and edges. Wedge the nozzle
into the corners and drag from the back edge of the corner to the front of the
stair. Then, start in the corner and clean from corner to corner against the
back edge of the stair.

HOUSEKEEPING
December 9,2019

4. Work your way down the stairs. When you get to the bottom of the stairs,
remove the small nozzle and replace it with the regular beater-brush
attachment.
5. Vacuum your way back up the stairs, first running the wide attachment
across the width and length of each stair. Then turn the attachment so it is
facing outward and vacuum the vertical panel between each stair. Continue
this process until you are back at the top of the stairs.
6. Bring your upright vacuum cleaner to the top of the stairs and plug it in. If
your machine has an adjustable setting, change it to "rug" and adjust for
the carpet pile.
7. Attach the hose attachment (if the vacuum has one) and put the base of the
vacuum on the second stair from the top. As you vacuum you will continue
to place the upright on the stair directly beneath the one you are cleaning. It
helps to keep both you and the vacuum more easily balanced.
8. Use the hose attachment and its smallest nozzle to vacuum the stairs as you
would with a canister vacuum. If your machine doesn't have a hose
attachment, then you will need to use the base to clean the stairs.
9. Place the base in the corner of the stair with the base facing away from you
while you are standing on the stair below the one you're cleaning. Drag the
base directly toward you, from the back of the stair to the front. Repeat this
all along the length of each stair, making your way down to the bottom of
the staircase.

Pool Cleaning Procedures
Learning Objective: After reading the INFORMATION SHEET, you must be able
to;
Follow the procedure in cleaning the pool.
Pool cleaning procedures depend on several factors: how the pool is designed,
what tools are being used and how dirty the pool is. To prevent having to consult a
professional, it is best to try and clean your pool on a weekly basis. Make a habit of
checking your water chemistry, as well as your motors at the same time.
Pool Cover Debris
1. Brush the leaves off the swimming pool cover to reduce the debris that gets into
the pool. Sweeping away any matter on the surrounding deck, as well as placing all
your waste into a plastic bag, will cut down on the time it takes to clean the actual
pool.
Skimming
2. Get leaves off the top of the swimming pool and any other floating matter. You
may use your hands to do this or a leaf swimmer, which is useful for large debris. As
with cleaning the cover, it is a preventative measure that reduces the amount of
debris found on the pool floor.
Brushing Walls
3. This step deals with matter such as oils and scum on the walls. It is important
to do this weekly so that your pool doesn't have build up, which is hard to remove.
Use a stiff brush for concrete or softer one for vinyl. Be careful not to ruin your grout
if you have tiles. Chemicals and pumice stone may be used in difficult spots. Areas
like the steps and the water line may need particular attention. The steps tend to be
forgotten and hard to reach, and the water line is usually where oils and other matter
settle. Start on the shallow end going towards the deep end, and try to move debris
toward the filter. Brush the tile or concrete and wait for a couple of hours to a day to
let the debris settle before vacuuming.
Skimmer basket
4. Before you vacuum, make sure you clean the lint and hair off the skimmer
basket. This will make the pool's circulatory system more efficient. Check all the other
strainer baskets like the pump and the heaters.
Vacuuming
5. There are a variety of vacuums on the market for pool cleaning, but generally
vacuuming goes from one end of the pool to the other in overlapping lines. Move the
vacuum slowly, particularly in a dirty pool, so that you don't disturb the dust at the
bottom. The vacuum filter may need to be cleaned out after each session.

Cleaning Laundry Room
Learning Objectives: After reading the INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be

able to:
1. Follow the procedure in cleaning laundry room.
PROCEDURE:
1. Catch up the laundry. Get all the clean clothes put away. Wash dirty
clothes that are in the laundry room and put those away, too. After that, if
the laundry room itself is your target, bring in only one load at a time from
other rooms.
2. If you store cleaning supplies in the laundry room, dispose safely of

any hopelessly outdated stuff, especially if you don't use it anymore or
the container appears to be in danger of spilling its contents. If you
need to dispose of household chemicals, contact your municipality about
proper disposal.
3. 4
23. 3. Organize what remains. Place it in shelves, cabinets, or bins so that the
items you use most are close at hand. If possible, clear the tops of the
washer and dryer and any work surfaces.5

4. Dust the walls and cabinets. Lint buildup in a laundry room can make for
a lot of dust on the walls. A long-handled duster or dust mop will make this
a quicker job.
5. 6
5. Wipe off the outsides of your washer and dryer. Use a mild, diluted spray
cleaner and a rag.
6. Clean any counter tops and wipe out the laundry sink. Laundry sinks
often end up getting the messy jobs, like cleaning paint brushes or muddy
shoes, so yours might not ever gleam. Just clean the worst of it and move
on.
7. Clean out your dryer vent about once a year. While it's not a visible mess,
it does pose a fire hazard and reduce the efficiency of your dryer. A clogged
vent can also contribute to dust in your home.
8. Sweep and mop the floor, and shake or hose out any scatter rugs or mats.
9. If you have hard water, try running a wash load with vinegar in it
periodically. The acid will help to dissolve the minerals. You can even add it
to the rinse cycle with your clothes, and no, your clothes will not reek of
vinegar when they are dry.

How to Clean Nozzles
Over time, calcium, lime and hard water buildup on the nozzle of a water hose can
decrease its performance. Cleaning a water hose nozzle is an easy process that can
ensure its most efficient use. Cleaning nozzles can be done safely to ensure there
is no risk to the environment---or to your own health.
1. Fill the bucket with an equal solution of vinegar and hot water. Heat the water
for five to 10 minutes on the stove. Ensure the water is not boiling.
2. Unscrew the nozzles from the water hose. Loosen the nozzle from the hose
gently to prevent cracking and bending of the nozzle and the washer that holds
the nozzle in place.

HOUSEKEEPING
December 9,2019
NC ll Issued by:
00
3. Soak the nozzle in the mixture of vinegar and water for 10 minutes. Soaking the
nozzle loosens caked-on hard water and calcium buildup from inside the nozzle.
4. Remove the nozzle from the bucket. Wipe away any excess vinegar and water
from the surface of the nozzle.
5. Dry the nozzle with a washcloth or place it in the sun so that it can dry for five
to 10 minutes. Drying the nozzle allows for easy attachment when you re-attach
the nozzle to the water hose.
6. Re-attach the nozzle carefully to avoid bending and cracking the nozzle. Firmly
tighten the nozzle to prevent leaks when using the water hose.

How to Clean a Floor Polisher Machine
Keeping a clean work site starts before the cleaning crew enters the building. By
keeping the floor polisher clean, worn parts will present themselves before they
break down, causing lost time on a job. Elegant Cleaning Services, of Nutley, N.J.,
offers steps to keep a two-speed floor polisher clean
Procedure:
1. Mix some all-purpose cleaner as per the manufacturer's specifications. After

dipping a rag into the mixture, tightly wring it out. (You can use detergent
soap)
2. Wipe down the handles, pipe and base of the machine. Dry and buff with
additional rags.
3. Mix some floor stripper as per the manufacturer's specifications. Dip a rag
into the mixture and tightly wring it out.

4. Wrap the unplugged electrical wire with the rag dipped in the floor stripper.
Pull the wire through to remove any sticky floor finish that is building up on
the wire.
5. Wipe down the bottom portion of the machine and the bumper with the floor
stripper rag; this section also builds up a sticky residue from floor finish.
The floor machine's wheels collect debris as the machine spins the polishing
pad.
Brush the sides of the wheels as debris tends to build up from the spinning
machine. Once the heavy dirt is removed, wipe down with a damp cloth.
6. Use the steel wool to scrub any stubborn spots, such as rust, on the metal
housing.

7. Clean of brush. Never store polisher with the brush attached. The weight of
the machine will deform the bristles and destroy its ability to properly scrub
or polish and will also cause machine to “wobble” when operated. Brush
must be stored lying down.
8. To clean brush, rinse it with warm water. Hardened wax deposits can be
removed by dipping the bristle into wax solvent as Naphtha, brush the
brush while wet.. Allow brush to dry resting on the wooden backing.

Worn-out cleaning tools, including sponges, mops, squeegees, and such, are
a waste of time. They make you work harder to get the job done. Dirty cleaning
tools are worse, because they’re downright counterproductive, smearing grime and
germs all over the things you’re trying to clean.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Maintenance is an excellent means of improving the performance and
condition of equipment and facilities. An effective maintenance program identifies
problems long before any equipment or facility breakdowns or deteriorates. A good
maintenance system presents the early discovery of problems, thus providing
plenty of lead time for effective maintenance planning.
Preventive maintenanceis defined as program maintenance which are performed
in order to prevent failures from occurring or to find failures before they develop to
a breakdown.
The said system is related to overhauling, repairs, replacements on fixed
cycles, and schedules based on actual experience and statistics. It means to
reduce number and frequency of repairs on crisis situation by organizing and
planning the following:
- inspections
- routine jobs
- periodic adjustments
- replacement in advance of critical parts
- condition monitoring
- lubricant analysis
- vibration analysis
This maintenance includes:
- Routine activities such as lubrication, visual inspection, tightening bolts,
adjustments of clearances and cleaning.
- Shutting down of equipment for the purpose of gaining parts, such as
filters, mechanical seals, bearing, isolating valves and other parts.
- General overhaul of the equipment and general cleaning of the physical
facilities.
- Regular inventory of spare parts and tools to assure their availability as
needed.
- Coordination with operations as to availability of the equipment and the
facilities when required.
