When operating high-pressure cleaning equipment, always wear safety glasses and

• A. Avoid contacting high-pressure streams
• B. Heat-resistant gloves
• C. Hearing protection
• D. Respiratory protection

Answer: (A)

High-pressure cleaning streams can cause severe injuries, so the key safety practice is to avoid contact with the jet. Even with eye protection, keeping your body out of the stream prevents skin and tissue damage from the powerful force and potential injection injuries. While heat-resistant gloves, hearing protection, and respiratory protection are important for other hazards or tasks, the immediate, best completion to protect yourself here is to stay clear of the high-pressure stream.
