(A/: Use NIOSH Lifting Equation to analyze the task in the figure below. The operator in this task
must load a heavy reel of supply stock (illustrated at floor height) from the floor onto the machine.
The diameter of the reel is 30 inches, the width of the reel between the worker's hands is l2 inches,
and the reel weighs 44 lbs.
The activity occurs only once per shift. so F is assumed to be < 0.2, and duration is assumed to be
:
less than I hour. No asymmetric lifting is involved (i.e, A 0), and the couplings are classified as
fair. Determine RWL and LI at both the origin and the destination of the lift?
