Chapter 5: Using Your Clean Bench
Positioning Work Materials
Position work materials directly in front of you to avoid
twisting your neck and torso. This makes it possible to
work with your shoulders relaxed and your upper arms
hanging freely at your sides.
Minimizing Your Reach
Arrange your frequently used materials to minimize the
distance you reach for them.
Hand Manipulation
Notice how you use your fingers and hands while
working. Avoid keeping any unnecessary tension in
your thumbs and fingers. Observe whether you have a
heavy touch or a light touch while working.
Reaching for Materials
To reach material that is not near your hands, move
your whole arm; avoid stretching your fingers and
angling your wrists.
RELAX YOUR THUMBS AND
FINGERS WHILE WORKING;
NOTICE AND RELEASE EXCESS
TENSION.
Don't work with unnecessary tension
in your thumbs and fingers.
Wrist Position
Use your whole arm and shoulder to move objects, not
just your wrist. Don't rest or anchor your wrist while
moving items; keep your wrist, arm, and shoulder free
to move.
Aligning Forearms, Wrists, and Hands
When working in the clean bench, keep your forearms,
wrists, and hands comfortably aligned with each other
in a straight, natural line. Avoid bending or angling
your wrists.
