What safety equipment is recommended while conducting an air brake inspection?

  1. Safety glasses, protective headgear, and protective footwear

  2. Ear plugs and safety glasses

  3. Fire extinguisher and protective footwear

  4. Gloves and ear plugs

The correct answer is: Safety glasses, protective headgear, and protective footwear

Option B is incorrect because ear plugs are not necessary for conducting an air brake inspection. The noise level during the inspection is not high enough to warrant the use of ear plugs. Option C is incorrect because a fire extinguisher is not typically needed for conducting an air brake inspection.

It is important to protect your eyes, head, and feet while conducting an air brake inspection as there is a potential for debris and fluids to fall during the inspection process.
