What are the best practices for using a snow rake to safely remove snow from your roof?

When using a snow rake to remove snow from your roof, it is important to start from the edge and work your way up, avoiding power lines and staying clear of the roof's edge. Do not stand directly under the area you are raking to avoid injury from falling snow or ice. It is also recommended to use a roof rake with a telescoping handle for better reach and to avoid climbing on the roof.
