Safety is paramount. Key safety measures include:

1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Always wear safety glasses, gloves, and a hard hat.

2. Equipment Inspection: Before each use, inspect all tools, including ropes, cable pullers, and anchors, for any signs of damage or wear.

3. Proper Anchoring: Ensure all equipment, especially cable pullers, is properly and securely anchored to a support that can withstand the maximum pulling force with an adequate safety factor. Never attach a cable puller to a PVC conduit.

4. Awareness: Keep all personnel and body parts away from the pulling path and moving parts of the equipment. Be mindful of potential pinch points and the risk of rope snapping under tension.

These practices help prevent accidents and ensure a safe working environment.
