LOCKOUT/TAGOUT PROCEDURE DEVELOPMENT INFORMATION
Warning!
Before performing maintenance or service work on the baler, the
OSHA
(Occupational Safety and Health Administration) 29 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations)
1910.147 requires that each company develop, maintain, and follow a lock-out / tag-out
procedure for employees and equipment.(standard should be referenced for definitions to
various terms such as isolation, affected, and authorized.) This procedure must be followed
prior to performing maintenance or service work or entering any hazard area that may exist.
The following is merely a guideline for creating a company/equipment specific lock-out /
tag-out procedure and is not intended to supplant either the specific company procedure or
OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.147 and 29 CFR 1910.147 appendix A.
1.
All “affected” employees shall be notified that equipment is being shut down and
locked out prior to performing service or maintenance.
2.
The equipment, if operating, shall be shut down by normal means and the energy-
isolating device shall be de-activated to isolate the equipment from the energy source
by an “authorized” employee. Isolation shall include:
a)
Removing the key from the key-lock ON-OFF switch on the baler control box
b)
turning off disconnect and affixing a lock, securing disconnect in the off
position
c)
Affixing a tag to the lock, clearly identifying the individual who locked out
the machine, warn against hazardous conditions, and actions required to avoid
hazardous conditions, such as, “Do not operate”
d)
Placing operating equipment in such a position as not to be subject to possible
free fall and/or installing additional blocking devices to prevent freefall. See
drawing number AB340367 in user manual
e)
Relieving stored hydraulic or pneumatic pressure, after blocking devices are
installed
3.
Equipment isolation shall be verified by activating the normal operating controls,
ensuring first that no personnel are exposed (insure operating controls are returned to
the neutral or “off” position after verifying the isolation of the equipment).
4.
When the servicing or maintenance is completed, only after checking that the
equipment is ready to operate, ensuring that the surrounding area is clear, that
employees are safely positioned or removed from the area, and verifying that controls
are in neutral, shall the lockout devices be removed and the equipment be re-energized.
Tags and locks must be removed by the same person who attached them.
5.
Affected employees shall be notified that the servicing or maintenance has been
completed and the equipment is ready for use.
PTR Baler & Compactor strongly recommends that current and applicable ANSI and
OSHA standards be made available to operators at all times. At the time of printing the
applicable OSHA Standard 29 CFR1910.147 / 1910.147 Appendix A applied. Also
reference ANSI Z245.5, others may also apply.
