Risk assessment and hazard mitigation
Machine Tools are specifically designed to perform precise material-removal operations.
Stationary Machine Tools include lathes and milling machines and are typically found in a
machine shop. They are mounted in a fixed location during operation and are considered to be
a complete, self-contained machine. Stationary Machine Tools achieve the rigidity needed to
accomplish material-removal operations from the structure that is an integral part of the machine
tool.
In contrast, Portable Machine Tools are designed for on-site machining applications. They
typically attach directly to the workpiece itself, or to an adjacent structure, and achieve their
rigidity from the structure to which it is attached. The design intent is that the Portable Machine
Tool and the structure attached to it become one complete machine during the material-removal
process.
To achieve the intended results and to promote safety, the operator must understand and follow
the design intent, set-up, and operation practices that are unique to Portable Machine Tools.
The operator must perform an overall review and on-site risk assessment of the intended
application. Due to the unique nature of portable machining applications, identifying one or more
hazards that must be addressed is typical.
When performing the on-site risk assessment, it is important to consider the Portable Machine
Tool and the workpiece as a whole.
