<br /> ® OPERATION OF ®General safety requirements for equipment,machinery:
<br /> EQUIPMENT/MACHINERY • Arrange worksite for safe access to equipment/machinery.
<br /> ®Point-of-operation hazards • Use equipment/machinery in accordance with manufacturer's use and safety instructions.
<br /> ®Pinch points,moving parts • Ensure point-of-operation,mechanical power transmission,other moving parts are guarded with protective
<br /> ®'Struck-by,''caught between' devices;do not override interlocks,guards,protective devices.
<br /> ®Hot surfaces,heat • Secure long hair/loose clothing/hanging jewelry near moving/rotating parts.
<br /> El Extension cords,flexible wire • Heed warning signs/labels,keep safe distance;avoid locations of"struck by"and"caught between"hazards.
<br /> • Implement lockout/tagout for repairs/adjustments/tooling changes.
<br /> ®Fuel related(gas or liquid)
<br /> ❑Hydraulic pressure M Use safe lifting practices for movement of heavy portable equipment
<br /> ❑Implement safe work practices for compressed air,pressurized systems(pneumatic/hydraulic),stored energy.
<br /> ❑Pneumatic pressure
<br /> ®For climbing/fall hazards associated with large equipment,see Section BA.,"Fall Hazards."
<br /> ❑Kinetic,stored energy
<br /> M For electrical hazards,see Section B.8.,"Electrical Hazards."
<br /> ❑Noise
<br /> ®Operate fuel-powered equipment in well ventilated location.
<br /> ®Emissions,discharge gases
<br /> ®Working at heights,falls M Use safe practices for fuels,see Section B.13.,"Commercial Chemical Products."
<br /> ®Lifting,repetitive motion Geosyntec Procedure(s):HS-109-Hearing Conservation,HS-113-Personal Protective Equipment
<br /> ❑Illumination HS-119-Lockout/7-agout HS-121-Electrical Safety,HS-503-Powered Hand Tools,Others as applicable
<br /> ❑Electrical
<br /> ® LOCKOUT/TAGOUT OF HAZARDOUS s ® Implement control-of-hazardous-energy practices(lockout/tagout),provide lockout/tagout locks and
<br /> ENERGY devices,training workers,designate"authorized"personnel,notify"affected"personnel.
<br /> Geosyntec Procedure(s):HS-119-Lockout Tagout
<br /> WELDING,CUTTING,HOT WORK ❑General safe work practices:
<br /> (GAS OR ARC) • Hot work permit system to be implemented.
<br /> UV/IR light-eye/skin burns,hot-work • Operator properly protected(eye protection,clothing,apron,etc.).
<br /> hazards,toxic welding fumes, • Fire hazard controls(watcher,fire extinguisher,water,isolate combustibles).
<br /> compressed gases,electrical shock • Protect nearby personnel from hazardous UV,IR light(shielding,curtain).
<br /> ❑For gas welding/cutting,use gas cylinder safe practices(secured,upright,caps on when not in use,prevent
<br /> Damage;never secure gas cylinders to metal bench used for arc welding).
<br /> ❑For arc welding,follow electrical safe work practices.See Section B.8.,"Electrical Hazards."
<br /> ❑See Section B.13.,"Commercial Chemical Products,"for hazards of welding rods(toxic metals),welding gases.
<br /> Geosyntec Procedure(s):HS-511-Welding,Cutting and Other Hot Work
<br /> COMPRESSED AIR,COMPRESSOR ❑Never direct nozzle toward body;do not use compressed air for cleaning clothes.
<br /> (for compressed gases,see ❑If compressed air is used for cleaning,restrict pressure to 30 psi or below,equip nozzle with chip guard.
<br /> Section B.13.,"Compressed Gases") ❑Use eye protection.
<br /> ❑Ensure air tank,hoses,fittings are in good repair using factory fittings.
<br /> PORTABLE GENERATOR ❑Follow general safety practices for Operation of Equipment/Machinery(above),and as follows:
<br /> Hazards:Electrical shock,carbon • Use in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
<br /> monoxide in exhaust,fuel-related • Keep generator and work area dry.
<br /> fire,injury from mechanical hazards, • Never use indoors,or near building air intake vents due to carbon monoxide hazard.
<br /> lifting • Provide for ventilation and/or air monitoring where hazardous accumulation of exhaust emissions is possible.
<br /> • Use hearing protection in close proximity to operating generator,as needed.
<br /> • Use power cords/extension cords specified by instructions.
<br /> • Use ground-fault circuit interrupters(GFCIs)in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
<br /> • See Section B.8.,"Electrical Hazards."
<br /> • Shut down equipment before refueling. See safe practices for flammable/combustible liquids in Section B.13.,
<br /> "Commercial Chemical Products."
