Lifting equipment Adhere to the following guidelines when lifting heavy weight equipment: CAUTION: Do not lift greater than 50 pounds. Always obtain additional resources or use a mechanical lifting device. 1 Get a firm balanced footing. Keep your feet apart for a stable base, and point your toes out. 2 Tighten stomach muscles. Abdominal muscles support your spine when you lift, offsetting the force of the load. 3 Lift with your legs, not your back. 4 Keep the load close.
