Special Instructions
• None of the materials or processes used in the manufacture of these products are known to be harmful to the wearer.
• The manufacturer has examined under the system for ensuring quality of production by means of monitoring and inspection.
• These safety gumboots are designed to accommodate the basic safety requirements and standards for Personal Protective Equipment.
• The information contained herein is intended to assist the wearer in the selection of personal protective equipment.
Actual conditions of use cannot be directly simulated in a test environment therefore it is the responsibility of the end user and not the manufacturer or supplier to determine the boots suitability for the intended use.
• Do not use in environments exposed to heat and fire.
• It is important to note that footwear is subject to many different conditions encountered in everyday use and that it is impossible to make footwear resistant to slip in all conditions nevertheless it is generally accepted that problems are minimized if the guideline coefficients of friction are achieved.
• Should the footwear be cared for and worn in the correct working environment and stored in dry ventilated conditions, it should give a good wear life, without premature failure of the outsole, upper and upper stitching. The actual wear life for footwear is dependent on the type of footwear, environmental conditions which can affect the wear, contamination and degradation of the product.
• Do not modify this footwear as modification can invalidate type approval.
• Make allowance for extra socks or special arch supports when buying safety boots.
