### Who may be harmed & how
109+
- User - the chucks are heavy and hard to grip, and require movement to unergonomic positions during changing. Dropping a chuck could cause a crushing injury to hands or feet.
110+
- The space - the lathe may also be damaged if a chuck is dropped on it.
111+
112+
### Control measures
113+
- Training - the user should ensure plentiful space around the chuck is cleared before attempting to change the chuck.
114+
- Equipment - appropriate shoes, preferably with steel toecaps, should be worn during chuck changes. A first aid kit is available.
