Do Not operate this equipment without wearing appropriate personal protective
equipment for your eyes, ears and feet.
All personnel in the immediate work area

1.1 Safety – Mechanical
Do Not perform maintenance without following the Lock Out/Tag Out procedure
to eliminate all energy sources.
Before performing any type of maintenance on your Blastrac equipment, be sure that all
moving parts have completely stopped. Rotating parts, for example, may continue to
rotate for a period of time once it has been deactivated. Follow lock-out/tag-out
procedures to be sure that the power has been disconnected and will remain
disconnected until all maintenance has been completed.
•
Assure every power source that can produce mechanical movement has
been deactivated and locked in the off position.
•
Assure all potential energy sources have been minimized. (Example: Move
the machine to level ground before performing any maintenance so machine
cannot move by gravitational force.)
•
Assure loose or freely moveable parts of the machine have been secured
against accidental movement.
All drive guards must be kept in place and in good condition except during maintenance
or when repair work is being performed. Once maintenance or repair work is complete,
be sure all guards are correctly remounted.
Stay clear of the blower outlet and never open the top lid of the dust collector unless the
machine is locked and tagged out.
