m) from power lines.
• Do not use the grain dryer if there is a chance of any loading
or unloading equipment contacting power lines.

2.14. Lockout/Tagout Safety
Inspect the power source(s) before using and know how to shut down in an emergency.
Whenever you service or adjust your equipment, make sure you shut down your power
source and gas supply and follow lockout and tagout procedures to prevent inadvertent
start-up and hazardous energy release. Know the procedure(s) that applies to your
equipment from the following power sources.
For example:
• De-energize, block, and dissipate all sources of hazardous energy.
• Lock out and tag out all forms of hazardous energy.
• Ensure that only 1 key exists for each assigned lock, and that you are the only one that holds that key.
• After verifying all energy sources are de-energized, service or maintenance may be performed.
• Ensure that all personnel are clear before turning on power to equipment. For more information on
occupational safety practices, contact your local health and safety organization.
