Machine Safe-Guarding

KEY CONCEPTS

• Basic Machine Safe-Guarding Guidelines

• Types of Machine Guards

• Preventing Accidents Using Guards

MOVING MACHINE PARTS CAN KILL YOU

• Contact with moving parts can cause• Crushed hands and arms• Severed fingers• Blindness• Death

• Good rule to follow • If machine parts move, they can cause injury, and must be guarded

DANGEROUS MOTIONS AND ACTIONS

• Rotating motions• Reciprocating motions• Cutting, sanding and

grinding actions

• Punching, shearing or bending actions

MACHINE GUARDING RULES

• Always use a guard when using saws, grinders and other machines

• Only use manufacturer recommended guards• Do not tamper with or remove installed guards• Read instructions before using machines• Use correct speeds on grinding wheels• Make sure machines are plugged in properly• Mechanical hazards can be found at the point of operation,

the power transmission apparatus, or at the area of transverse motion

5 TYPES OF SAFEGUARDING

• Guards• Devices• Automatic feeding

and ejection methods

• Location or distance• Protective aids

Safeguarding

GUARDS

• Fixed guards• Are the most preferred safeguard• Are a physical barrier

• Interlocked guards shut off or disengage the machinery when the guard is open

• Only approved workers shall remove or repair guards

GUARDS• Adjustable guards

• Require manual fitting• Machinery should be shut down while adjusting• Cause injuries when not adjusted properly

• Self-adjusting guards• Move to fit the stock• Reduce visibility

TYPES OF GUARDS: FIXED• A permanent part of the

machine

• Not dependent on any other part to perform the function

• Usually made of sheet metal, screen, bars or other material which will withstand the anticipated impact

• Generally considered the preferred type of guard

• Simple and durable

This grinder has a fixed guard on the side to keep fingers away from the

moving grind wheel

Guard

TYPES OF GUARDS: INTERLOCKED

• Usually connected to a mechanism that will cut off the power automatically

• Could use electrical, mechanical or hydraulic systems• Should rely on a manual reset system

TYPES OF GUARDS: ADJUSTABLE• Very flexible to accommodate

various types of stock

• Manually adjusted

The operator must move the guard to accommodate different size stock on this band saw.

Guard

TYPES OF GUARDS: SELF-ADJUSTING

• The opening is determined by the movement of the stock through the guard

• Does not always provide maximum protection

• Common complaint: Reduced visibility at the point of operation.... “I can’t see what I’m doing!”

Self-adjusting guard that automatically moves to accommodate different size stock. Note the unguarded pulley underneath.

Belt not Guarded

PREVENTING INJURIES WITH MACHINE GUARDS

• Transmission sources such as this should be guarded to keep hands and arms out of them

EXAMPLES OF MACHINE GUARDS

• This shows a pulley system which has correct guards to keep fingers and tools away from pinch points

• This is an “Enclosure Guard”


• This machine is using a gate system to keep hands out of the point of operation area


• This saw has:• a blade guard• anti kickback device

• It should have a retracting device to automatically bring the saw back into position


• Moving wheels are guarded with cover plates

• Adjustable guard on the blade at the point of operation


This machine uses a wire guard to stop the machine when a worker gets too close

Wire Guard


• A shield of safety glass prevents sparks and particles from striking the worker

• Rotating shafts are required to have guards on them

EXAMPLES OF MACHINE GUARDS• In order to operate this press the operator must

push both buttons at the top of the machine• This insures that his hands are not in the point of

operation area when the press activates

Buttons

EXAMPLES OF MACHINE GUARDS• This operator has wrist cuffs

attached to her arms to keep her from putting them in harms way

• Some versions will automatically pull the operator’s hands back when the press cycles

• Must be individually fitted to the worker at each shift


This cable will stop the machine when it is pulled.

The tripod type bar on top of this machine can be grabbed by a worker to stop the machine.

This safety bar will stop the machine if the worker gets too close to the operation area.

WOOD WORKING DEVICES

This wood working device has an adjustable guard that moves as the wood is fed into it.

When working closely with wood cutting machines, a push stick can keep your fingers on the end of your hands!!

PREVENTING INJURIES

Instead of having the worker pick the finished product out of the die with their fingers, this system uses an automatic device to push the product out of the die.

This machine ejects the finished product automatically.

PREVENTING INJURIES - ROBOTS

• Robots can be deadly• Establish a system to keep

humans from getting into the robots work area

• A “Perimeter Guard” provides a fixed barrier around the danger area

• Maintenance workers must use a lockout system

DEVICES

• Presence sensing devices• Shut off power when you enter a dangerous area• Do not protect you if broken

• Pullback devices• Move your hand away from the danger zone• Are fitted for you before every shift

• Safety controls stop equipment when tripped

DEVICES (CONTINUED)

• Restraint devices• Safely hold you back• Must be fitted for you before every shift

• Two-hand control devices• Require you to push two buttons to activate• Do not protect your coworkers

FEEDING AND EJECTION METHODS

• Automatic feeds reduce risk when feeding stock into the machine

• Automatic ejection methods reduce risk when pulling stock out of the machine

• Robots perform dangerous tasks for you• Additional guards are required for all methods

SAFEGUARDING BY LOCATION OR DISTANCE• Dangerous parts are positioned out of reach• Examples are when machinery is

• Placed at a heights out of reach• Placed behind a fence or wall• Located a safe distance from operator controls

• Risk still exists - Hazards have not been eliminated

AIDS TO INCREASE PROTECTION

• Never use as only protection• Push sticks or push blocks• Awareness barriers• Shields

OPERATING PROCEDURES

• Each machine has its own set of operating instructions• Inspect guards before starting your shift• Report all missing or damaged guards• Only approved workers remove guards

LOCKOUT/TAGOUT PROCEDURESPREVENT INJURIES

• Turn off current at switch box• Lock and tag switch box• Release any stored energy• Verify equipment is

shut down• Tell co-workers before

restarting power

SUMMARY

• Contact with moving machine parts can kill you

• Guards and devices will protect you• Only trained employees should remove or repair guards

and devices

• Operating instructions for each machine should be followed

Abrasive Wheel Machinery


KEY CONCEPTS

• Appropriate use of Abrasive Wheels• Appropriate storage of Abrasive Wheels• Do’s and Don’ts

HOW TO USE ABRASIVE WHEELS• Grinding wheels should be equipped with a work

rest, also referred to as a tool rest, that holds the work firmly

• The work rest must be kept adjusted close to the wheel with a maximum opening of 1/8” to prevent the work from being jammed between the wheel and the rest

HOW TO USE ABRASIVE WHEELS• Grinding wheels must have an adjustable tongue

guard

• The tongue guard must be adjusted to within 1/4" of the wheel

STORAGE OF ABRASIVE WHEELS • Abrasive wheels must be stored where they will not be

exposed to• High temperature or humidity• Water or other liquids • Or where they would be subjected to physical damage from

falling tools or materials

• Before new abrasive wheels are used they should be visually inspected and ring tested

DO’S & DON’TS OF ABRASIVE WHEELS• Bench and pedestal grinders should be permanently mounted or

secured

• The maximum RPM rating of each abrasive wheel must be compatible with the RPM rating of the grinder motor

• Each electrically operated grinder should be effectively grounded• Each grinder should

have an individual "On" and "Off" control switch

DO’S & DON’TS OF ABRASIVE WHEELS

• The side of a wheel should not be used for grinding, unless it is a special type of wheel designed for that purpose

• Defective abrasive wheels (cracked, broken, out of balance) must not be used

• Discarded abrasive wheels should not be re-used

EYE & FACE PROTECTION

• Eye injuries at grinders have demonstrated that safety glasses alone are insufficient protection

• ALWAYS wear a face shield AND safety glasses with side shields when using a grinder

POWERED ABRASIVE WHEEL TOOLS

• Powered abrasive grinding, cutting, polishing, and wire buffing wheels create special safety problems because they throw off flying fragments

• Before an abrasive wheel is mounted, it should be inspected closely and sound-tested or ring-tested to be sure that it is free from cracks or defects

• To test, wheels should be tapped gently with a lightnon-metallic instrument

• If they sound cracked or dead, they could fly apart in operation and must not be used

• A sound and undamaged wheel will give a clear metallic tone or "ring"

FAILURE TO RING TEST

• Failure to ring test could result in a disintegrating wheel• This could lead to serious injury or death

Spindle guard removed for better viewing


• To prevent the wheel from cracking, the user should be sure it fits freely on the spindle

• The spindle nut must be tightened enough to hold the wheel in place, without distorting the flange

• Follow the manufacturer's recommendations• Care must be taken to assure that the spindle wheel will not exceed the

abrasive wheel specifications

• Due to the possibility of a wheel disintegrating (exploding) during start-up, the employee should never stand directly in front of the wheel as it accelerates to full operating speed


• Portable grinding tools need to be equipped with safety guards to protect workers not only from the moving wheel surface, but also from flying fragments in case of breakage

• In addition, when using a powered grinder• Always use eye protection• Turn off the power when not in use• Never clamp a hand-held grinder in a vise

Basic Electrical Training


BASIC ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Do you see anything wrong in this picture?

ELECTRICITY CAN KILL

• Treat electricity with the respect it deserves• Electricity is the most

commonly encountered hazard in the workplace

• Death can be caused from direct exposureor injuries after shock

HOW DOES A SHOCK OCCUR?

• Your body is a great conductor of electricity• Touching a circuit and the ground can cause serious

injury or death

• The greatest risk of shock is when you touch water• ‘Low voltage’ does not mean ‘low hazard’

HOW DOES ELECTRICITY WORK?

• Electricity always• Travels in completed circuits through the path of

least resistance

• Flows toward the ground• Conductors allow electricity to flow• Insulators prevent electricity from flowing

KEY CONCEPTS

• Fundamental concepts of electricity

• Effects of electricity on the human body

• Recognize common electrical hazards

• Electrical protective devices

• Electrical Safety Do’s & Don’ts

FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

• Circuit• A complete and closed path around which a circulating electric

current can flow

• A system of electrical conductors and components forming such a path

• Fault• current flow through an unintended path

HOW ELECTRICITY WORKS

• To flow, electricity must have a complete path• Electricity flows through conductors

Examples: water, metal, the human body

• Insulators are non-conductors• The human body is a conductor

ENCLOSURE

BASIC ELECTRICAL TERMINOLOGY

• Voltage • electrical pressure (water pressure)

• Amperage• electrical flow rate (gallons/min)

• Impedance• restriction to electrical flow (pipe friction)

FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRICAL HAZARDS• What is Grounding?

• Electrical connection of a circuit or conductor to the earth

• Protection from electric shock• normally a secondary protection measure

• A ground is a conductive connection• between electrical circuit or equipment and earth,

or ground plane• creates a low resistance to the earth

EFFECTS OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK

• Ranges from• Minor pain, muscle contractions• Temporary lung paralysis• Heart dysfunction (can be fatal)• Heart Paralysis• Severe Burns

SOME COMMON ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

• Overhead lines• Minimum distance from overhead lines should be 10 ft.

• Frayed, cut, broken wires• Grounding prong missing• Improper use of cube taps• Improperly applied or missing strain relief

ELECTRICAL PROTECTION• Circuit Breakers

• Provided to protect EQUIPMENT not people• Do not reset breakers with a line voltage higher than 120V • Reset a breaker only if you know why it tripped

• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)• Provided to protect people• Trip range 4-6ma• Monthly test

• Distance• If you sense the presence of an electrical hazard or exposed

conductors that may be energized, keep your distance and STAY AWAY

PROPER USE OF CORDS

• Plug power equipment into wall receptacles with power switches in the Off position

• Unplug electrical equipment by grasping the plug and pulling

• Do not pull or jerk the cord to unplug the equipment• Do not drape power cords over hot pipes, radiators or

sharp objects

• Do not run power cords under carpets, floor coverings, paper, or other objects

THINGS TO CHECK

• Do check the receptacle for missing or damaged parts• Do not plug equipment into defective receptacles• Do check for frayed, cracked, or exposed wiring on equipment

cords

• Employees should know the location of electrical circuit breaker panels that control equipment and lighting in their work area(s)

• Circuits and equipment disconnects must be identified and clearly labeled

ELECTRICAL CORD USE

• Do check for defective cord clamps at locations where the power cord enters the equipment or the attachment plug

• Do not use “cheater plugs”, un-fused plug adaptors, extension cords with junction box receptacle ends or other “home made” equipment

• Extension cords should not be used in office areas• Extension cords should be limited to temporary or short-

term use by maintenance, laboratory & shop personnel

ELECTRICAL CORD USE

• Extension cords are for temporary use only• Cords should be put away neatly when finished

and/or at the end of each day• TAMU rules prohibit extension cords from use with

laboratory apparatus & instrumentation• Plug the instrument cord directly into the outlet

BE AWARE

• Temporary or permanent storage of any materials is not allowed within 3 feet of any electrical panel or electrical equipment

• Any electrical equipment causing shocks or with high leakage potential must be tagged with a Danger Tag or equivalent

• Consumer electrical equipment or appliances should not be used if not properly grounded (Look for the UL Label)

DE-ENERGIZE LIVE PARTS

• Avoid working on or near live parts• To de-energize live parts

• Turn current off at switch box• Lock and tag out switch box• Release any stored energy• Verify equipment is shut

down

• Inform coworkers before restarting power

PREVENT ACCIDENTAL CONTACT

• Take precautions to ensure dangerous live parts are out of reach

• When you enter a confined space• Use protective shields, barriers or insulation• Make sure doors and hinged panels are secured• Be familiar with TEES & TAMU rules for safe Confined Space

Entry

WORKING SAFELY WITH ENERGIZED EQUIPMENT

• Never enter a space if you can not see the live parts

• Be careful when holding conductive materials• Do not wear conductive jewelry• Avoid housekeeping until area is safe

WORKING SAFELY WITH OVERHEAD LINES

• Overhead power lines cause half of all electrical deaths

• De-energize lines before working• Stay safe by keeping the following distances

• 10 feet for lines under 50,000 volts• Additional 4 inches for every added 10,000 volts

WORKING SAFELY WITHPORTABLE ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT

• Do not work with damaged cords• If cord is damaged,

remove from service

• Do not use if you or the environment are wet

WORKING SAFELY WITH EXTENSION CORDS

• Extension cords are only a temporary solution• They are at higher risk of damage than

fixed wiring

• Damaged cords cause shocks and fires• They should be checked before shifts start• Put extension cords away after use, and/or at the end of

the day

GROUNDING PREVENTS INJURIES

• Grounding equipment prevents dangerous electricity from traveling through your body

• Examples are• Three prong plug• Equipment ground

Bad Plug

Good Plug

CIRCUIT PROTECTING DEVICES PREVENT INJURIES

• They shut off the flow of electricity if level becomes too dangerous

• Examples of these devices are• Fuses• Circuit breakers• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)

PERSONNEL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT (PPE)WILL SAVE YOUR LIFEExamples of PPE that will protect you fromdangerous electrical currents

• Industrial protective helmets

• Eye gear• Rubber gloves• Rubber shoes• Rubber mats

ALWAYS REMEMBER….

• Never use an electrical tool near water • Never us an electrical tool that has fallen into water• AC reverse polarity is hazardous• It does not take high voltage to kill• Always call an electrician before altering or tampering

with electrical equipment

• TAMU rules require a licensed electrician when installing, removing, or repairing electrical service

SUMMARY

• Electricity can kill !• Your body is a great conductor of electricity !• Do not work on or near live parts !• Treat electricity with the respect it deserves !


Hand and Power Tool Safety

HAND & POWER TOOL SAFETY

Tools are such a common part of our lives that it is difficult to remember that they may pose hazards. Tragically, a serious incident can occur before steps are taken to identify and avoid or eliminate tool-related hazards. The following information is based on the standards of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration; this training, however, should not be considered as a substitute for the full safety and health standards for general industry (published in Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 1910, Subpart P).

HAND AND POWER TOOL SAFETY

KEY CONCEPTS

• Maintaining Hand & Power Tools• Hazards Associated with Hand & Power Tools• Using Hand & Power Tools Safely

RIGHT TO KNOW

• Employees who use hand and power tools may be exposed to the hazards such as

• Falling, flying, abrasive, and splashing objects • Harmful dusts, fumes, mists, vapors, or gases

BE PREPARED

• Work with the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE)

• Receive training in the proper use of all tools • Be able to recognize the hazards associated with the different

types of tools and the safety precautions necessary

• Must be supplied a summary of the basic safety procedures and safeguards associated with hand and portable power tools

KNOW THE WORK AREA• Check for hazards• Know where the fire extinguisher/s is located• Exit routes• Emergency plans• First Aid Kit • Electrical outlets and accessibility• Eye wash station• Housekeeping • Can you think of any others???

HAND TOOLS

• Hand tools are non-powered and include anything from axes to wrenches

• The greatest hazards posed by hand tools result from misuse and improper maintenance

• Using a screwdriver as a chisel may cause the tip of the screwdriver to break and fly, hitting the user or other employees

• If a wooden handle on a tool such as a hammer or an axe is loose, splintered, or cracked, the head of the tool may fly off and strike the user or another worker

• A wrench must not be used if its jaws are sprung, because it might slip

• Impact tools such as chisels, wedges, or drift pins are unsafe if they have mushroomed heads

• The heads might shatter on impact, sending sharp fragments flying

HAND TOOL SAFETY

• Employers shall not issue or permit the use of unsafe hand tools• Wrenches, including adjustable, pipe, end, and socket

wrenches shall not be used when jaws are sprung to the point that slippage occurs

• The wooden handles of tools shall be kept free of splinters or cracks and shall be kept tight in the tool

INJURIES CAUSED BY HAND TOOLS

• Amputations and severed arteries

• Bruises and broken bones

• Eye damage and blindness

• Puncture wounds

HAND TOOL SAFETY

• Direct sharp tools away from you• Saw blades, knives, & other tools directed away from aisle

areas and employees working in close proximity

• Knives and scissors must be sharp• Dull tools can be more hazardous than sharp ones, replace or repair

dull tools

• Use spark resistant tools around flammable substances • Brass, plastic, aluminum, or wood

• Where fire hazard exists, spark-resistant tools made from brass, plastic, aluminum, or wood will provide for safety

KNOW YOUR POWER TOOLS

• There are several types of power tools, based on the power source they use

• Electric, pneumatic, liquid fuel, hydraulic, & powder-actuated

• Operators must read and understand the owner's manual • Labels affixed or included in the shipping container must be

read and understood

• Follow all manufacturer’s instructions for proper procedures

HAZARDS OF POWER TOOLS

All hazards involved in the use of power tools can be prevented by following five basic safety rules

1. Keep all tools in good condition with regular maintenance

2. Use the right tool for the job

3. Examine each tool for damage before use

4. Operate according to the manufacturer's instructions

5. Provide and use the proper protective equipment

INJURIES CAUSED BY POWER TOOLS

• Internal bleeding and heart failure

• Severed arteries and amputations

• Eye damage and blindness

• Puncture wounds

• Burns and permanent skin damage

GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR POWER TOOLS

• Be aware of hazards• Power lines• Electrical circuits• Water pipes• Other mechanical hazards in your work area

• Wear proper apparel• Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects or jewelry• Long hair must be restrained• Gloves should not be worn when operating certain power

tools

• All observers should be kept at a safe distance away from the work area


• Ground all tools unless double insulated• Avoid dangerous environments

• Do not use power tools in a damp, wet and/or explosive atmosphere -- fumes, dust or flammable materials

• Never carry a tool by the cord or hose• Never yank the cord or the hose to disconnect it from the

receptacle


• Keep cords and hoses away from heat, oil, and sharp edges

• Disconnect tools when not in use, before servicing, and when changing accessories such as blades, bits and cutters

• Tools should be maintained with care• They should be kept sharp and clean for the best

performance


• Be sure to keep good footing and maintain good balance

• All portable electric tools that are damaged shall be removed from use and tagged "Do Not Use"

• Secure work with clamps or a vise, freeing both hands to operate the tool

• Avoid accidental starting• Workers should not hold a finger on the switch button while

carrying a plugged-in tool

GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR POWER TOOLSDon't use an accessory or attachment unless

• The power tool manufacturer recommends its use on the product • The accessory limitations and specifications

• Such as speed, size, mounting and guarding requirements, etc. • Match the limitations and specifications of the power tool as

shown in the owner/operator's manual

• The use of accessory does not require the removal of or defeating of any guards, barriers or other safety-related devices on the power tool, unless they are replaced by other appropriate guards or protective devices

• Unplug tools before installing, adjusting and changing any accessory or attachment of any kind

ELECTRICAL POWER TOOLS• Hazards include the possibility of electrocution, burns and

slight shocks that can lead to injuries or even heart failure

• These general practices should be followed when using electrical power tools

• Electric tools should be operated within their design limitations

• Gloves, if kept clear of rotating parts, and safety footwear are recommended during use of electric tools

• When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry place

• Electric tools should not be used in damp or wet locations

• Work areas should be well lighted

GENERAL SAFETY FOR ELECTRICAL POWER TOOLS

• Electric tools must either have a three-wire cord with ground and be grounded, be double insulated, or be powered by a low-voltage isolation transformer.

• Double insulation is more convenient• The user and the tools are protected in two ways: by normal

insulation on the wires inside, and by a housing that cannot conduct electricity to the operator in the event of a malfunction

ELECTRICAL POWER TOOLS - SAWS

• Saws can cut arteries or amputate body parts

• Protect yourself by• Examining guards• Knowing where the cord is• Letting the blade reach full speed• Securing the object being cut

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR PORTABLE CIRCULAR SAWS• Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields

complying with the current national standard and a full face shield when needed

• Use a dust mask in dusty work conditions • Wear hearing protection during extended periods of

operation

• Don't wear loose clothing, jewelry or dangling objects, including long hair, that may catch in rotating parts or accessories

• Don't use a circular saw that is too heavy for you to easily control

PORTABLE CIRCULAR SAW SAFETY PRECAUTIONS• Be sure the switch actuates properly

• The switch should turn the tool on and return to the off position after release

• Use sharp blades• Dull blades cause binding, stalling, possible kickback, waste power

and reduce motor and switch life

• Use the correct blade for the application• Check for the following:

• Does it have the proper size and shape arbor hole? • Is the speed marked on the blade at least as high as the no-load RPM

on the saw's nameplate?

APPROPRIATE USE OF PORTABLE CIRCULAR SAW

• Prior to each cut, check to see if the blade guard working • Check often to ensure that guards return to their normal position

quickly• If a guard seems slow to return or hangs up, repair or adjust it immediately• Never defeat the guard to expose the blade by, for example, tying it back

or removing it

• Before starting a circular saw, be sure the power cord and extension cord are out of the blade path and are long enough to freely complete the cut

• Keep aware of the cord location• A sudden jerk or pulling on the cord can cause loss of control of the saw

and a serious accident

APPROPRIATE USE OF PORTABLE CIRCULAR SAW• For maximum control

• Hold the saw firmly with both hands after securing the work piece • Clamp work pieces• Check frequently to be sure clamps remain secure

• Avoid cutting small pieces that can't be properly secured and material on which the saw shoe can't properly rest

• When you start the saw, allow the blade to reach full speed before contacting the work piece

• When making a partial cut, or if power is interrupted, release the trigger immediately and don't remove the saw until the blade has come to a complete stop

MITER BOX SAWS AND CHOP SAWS

• Because of the saw's downward cutting motion, stay alert to keeping hands and fingers away from the blade's path

• Be sure all guards are in place and working• If a guard seems slow to return to its normal position,

adjust or repair it immediately

• Use only recommended size and RPM rated blades • When installing or changing a blade, be sure the blade

and related washers and fasteners are correctly positioned and secured on the saw arbor

PORTABLE DRILLS

• Need to check with care your drill's capacity limitations and accessory recommendations because it is the most commonly used power tool

• Check carefully for loose power cord connections and frays or damage to the cord

• Replace damaged tool and extension cords immediately • Be sure the chuck is tightly secured to the spindle

• This is especially important on reversible type drills• Tighten the bit securely as prescribed by the owner/operator's

manual

• The chuck key must be removed from the chuck before starting the drill

• A flying key can be an injury-inflicting missile

PORTABLE DRILL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Check auxiliary handles, if part of the too• Be sure they are securely installed• Always use the auxiliary drill handle when provided

• It gives you more control of the drill, especially if stalled conditions occur. • Grasp the drill firmly by insulated surfaces

• Always hold or brace the tool securely• Brace against stationary objects for maximum control• If drilling in a clockwise -- forward -- direction, brace the drill to prevent a

counterclockwise reaction

• Don't force a drill • Apply enough pressure to keep the drill bit cutting smoothly • If the drill slows down, relieve the pressure • Forcing the drill can cause the motor to overheat, damage the bit and

reduce operator control

PNEUMATIC TOOLS

• Pneumatic tools are powered by compressed air and include chippers, drills, hammers, and sanders

• Hazards of pneumatic tools• Getting hit by one of the tool's attachments or by some kind of

fastener the worker is using with the tool

• Noise • Working with noisy tools such as jackhammers requires proper,

effective use of hearing protection

GUIDELINE FOR USING PNEUMATIC POWERED TOOLS• The manufacturer's safe operating pressure for hoses, pipes,

valves, filters, hose connections, and other fittings shall not be exceeded

• The use of hoses for hoisting or lowering tools shall not be permitted

• All hoses exceeding 1/2-inch inside diameter shall have a safety device at the source of supply or branch line to reduce pressure in case of hose failure

• When using pneumatic tools, employees must check to see that they are fastened securely to the hose or whip to prevent them from becoming disconnected

A h l k d h h h

GUIDELINE FOR USING PNEUMATIC POWERED TOOLS• Eye protection is required and face protection is recommended• Safety clips or retainers shall be securely installed and

maintained on pneumatic impact (percussion) tools to prevent attachments from being accidentally expelled

• Screens must be set up to protect nearby workers from being struck by flying fragments around chippers, riveting guns, staplers, or air drills

• Compressed air guns should never be pointed toward anyone. Users should never "dead-end" it against themselves or anyone else

• All pneumatically driven nailers, staplers, and other similar equipment provided with automatic fastener feed, which operate at more than 100 p.s.i. pressure at the tool shall have a safety device on the muzzle to prevent the tool from ejecting fasteners, unless the muzzle is in contact with the work surface

COMPRESSOR SYSTEM GUIDELINES FOR PNEUMATIC TOOLS• Before making or breaking any air connection, always turn off the

air supply• Use the valve to turn off the air • Never kink the hose as a shortcut!

• Kinking the hose may damage or even rupture the air hose • Protect the air hose from damage• Move it out of the way of vehicles so that it isn't run over• Be sure not to drag hoses around sharp corners• Be sure to use the proper size air hose and fittings to keep air

pressure at a maximum throughout the entire line• Most manufacturers recommend 90 psi at the tool

COMPRESSOR SYSTEM GUIDELINES FOR PNEUMATIC TOOLS

• To ensure the best connection, clear any dirt off the nipple before connecting the air hose to the tool

• When the tool is connected, check the hose and all connections for leaks or damage before using the tool

• Maintain a clean, dry, regulated source of air to operate air tools at peak performance

• Filters, regulators, and lubricators should be used to keep the air system working at its best

TOOLS WITH COMPRESSED AIR

• Two biggest risks are being hit by the• Fasteners• Tool’s attachments

• Prevent these types of injuries by• Never point the tool at yourself or at anyone else• Securely fastening attachments to the tool

ELECTRICAL POWER TOOLS –POWER ABRASIVE TOOLS

• Power abrasive tools throw off dangerous fragments at high speeds

• Protect yourself by• Not standing in front of the wheel during start-up• Wearing eye protection• Looking where sparks may fall• Ring testing• Using vise-grip pliers

TOOLS WITH POWDERED CARTRIDGES

• Fire fasteners like bullets from a gun • Prevent accidents by

• Never pointing the tool at anyone • Removing cartridges if not using the tool• Knowing the material fastening into

• Can cause explosions. Prevent accidents by• Avoiding explosive environments• Being careful with misfires

FUEL-OPERATED TOOLS

• The biggest dangers are from vapors that can burn, explode or give off dangerous fumes

• Prevent these types of accidents by• Cooling the engine before refilling• Using special containers to transfer and store fuel• Ventilating work areas

• Ensure fire extinguishers are available

WORKPLACE DANGERS

• Loads should not be suspended over personnel below• People in the direction of travel should be warned to

move and remain clear of a lifted load at all times

• Directional crane movement should be made smoothly and deliberately. Avoid rapid movements in any direction

• Under no circumstances may anyone ride the hook or load

EQUIPMENT SAFETY: GENERAL

• Do not operate a crane or hoist if limit switches, steel ropes, chains or other components are worn or in disrepair

• Never operate a hoist that has been tagged with an “Out of Order” or “Do Not Operate” tag

• Never pull a hoist by the pendant (hanging) power cable

EQUIPMENT SAFETY: ELECTRICAL

• Familiarize yourself with the location of the disconnect switch and ensure that the switch is readily accessible and not blocked

• If loss of electrical power occurs, place controls in the “OFF” position to prevent unexpected startup upon restoration of power

• Disconnect power to a hoist that is unsafe or in need of repair. Arrange to have the disconnect switch locked and the control panel tagged with and “Out of Order” or “Do Not Operate” tag

EQUIPMENT INSPECTION: GENERAL

• Hoist operators must inspect equipment daily before use• Control buttons should be labeled to indicate their

function

• Know the location of disconnect switch that will cut the power off only to the hoist or crane

• Be sure that the disconnect switch is readily accessible and not blocked

• Check for any loose or missing parts• Report any unsafe conditions immediately

EQUIPMENT INSPECTION: OPERATIONS• Operate each control button to make sure it functions properly,

releases immediately, and does not stick

• Check upper hoist limit switch by slowly raising the block to trip the switch

• Lower the hoist block to activate the lower limit switch if the hoist is so equipped, leaving at least one turn of rope on the take-up drum

• Operate the crane or hoist several feet in each direction that it travels. Listen for any unusual noises. Look for any jerky movements

• When moving an A frame hoist, take care to ensure that the wheels on each side stay on the track

EQUIPMENT INSPECTION: DAILY CHECKLIST ITEMS

• Hooks• End Stops• Block Assembly & Sheaves• Wire Rope• Load Chain• Nylon or Synthetic Web Slings

DAILY INSPECTION CHECKLIST:HOOKS

• Check all hooks• Hooks should not be cracked, stretched, bent, or twisted • Each hook must have a safety latch that

automatically closes the throat of the hook

• If the latch is bent, spring is broken,or is otherwise damaged the latch must be repaired before use

• Hooks should rotate freely in blockassembly without any “grinding”felt or heard

VARIOUS TYPES OF HOOKS

EQUIPMENT INSPECTION: END STOPS

• End stops prevent the trolley from running off the beam• End stop bumpers are provided on all runways and bridges to

prevent the end trucks and trolley from exiting the track • The bumpers are bolted to the track to physically limit the travel of

the end truck and trolley

• End stops come in a variety of shapes, colors and sizes• End stops function to stop movement beyond the safe range to

prevent the crane/hoist from failing

DAILY INSPECTION CHECKLIST :BLOCK ASSEMBLY & SHEAVES

• Check the block assembly for structural damage or cracks in any components

• Sheaves should rotate freely without any grinding felt or heard coming from the bearings

• The sheave guard must be unbroken and intact

• No part of the sheave guard should be in contact with the wire rope or sheave

BLOCK AND TACKLE:COMPONENTS

BLOCK AND TACKLE:DESCRIPTION• A block is a pulley, or sheave, mounted in a case or frame

that’s fitted with an eye or shackle to attach it to an object

• A second eye or shackle at the opposite end of the block is known as a becket

• When two or more blocks are used with a rope or chain for hoisting or hauling, the entire assembly is known as a tackle

• The mechanical advantage gained by using two or more blocks in a tackle is known as the purchase

• Purchase is equal to the number of lines leading into and away from the moving block only, and includes a line attached to the moving block’s becket

• A line attached to the load is not included

BLOCK AND TACKLE:CALCULATING THE PURCHASE• A moving block with one sheave and a line attached to its

becket will give a purchase, or mechanical advantage, of 3 to 1 because there is one line leading into the block, one line leading away from the block, and one line attached

• Another way of saying this is that the purchase of a tackle equals the number of parts pulling on the load, with a part identified as either a line leading into or out of the sheave of the moving block or a line attached to the moving block’s becket

• In practice, the purchase is never quite that much because of friction in the sheaves

• Frictions is traditionally calculated at one tenth of the load for every sheave over which the line passes

• In modern blocks with roller or needle bearings, this figure is probably excessive, but it does build a safety factor into the calculations

BLOCK AND TACKLE: FIXED BLOCK

• Incidentally, a fixed block adds no power• It merely changes the direction of pull • But when one tackle is applied to the hauling part of

another, the total purchase gained is the power of the first multiplied by the power of the second

DAILY INSPECTION CHECKLIST:WIRE ROPE• Make sure wire rope is properly seated in its drum and

sheave grooves without any slack or overlapping

• Check the wire rope by lowering the block to the lowest level and looking for the following conditions. If any of these conditions are observed, they should be reported immediately

• Reduced diameter of the rope. This may indicate the rope has been stretched, has lost its inner core support, or has worn outside wires

• Any number of broken strands of wires• Kinked, crushed, cut, or “bird

caged” wiring, or wiring withheat damage

Wire Rope “Bird Cage”

WIRE ROPE• A wire rope is composed of a number of wire strands

formed helically around a central axis• The axial member is known as the core, and may be

made of various materials, such as fiber or steel• Wire rope is aptly described as a precision machine• In operation, its strands change position with respect

to each other• Individual wires within each strand perform in a

similar manner• The relationship between these parts is carefully

engineered to permit the rope to function smoothly in operation

WIRE ROPE• As with other precision equipment, internal lubrication

must be provided during fabrication• This combats frictional forces (which oppose movement of parts)

and prevents corrosion• Operating factors which affect a rope in service are

tension, wear, bending, crushing and corrosion• Neglect and misuse will substantially reduce a wire rope’s

useful life• Wire rope itself is a very complicated and delicate tool• Wire ropes are twisted bundles of wire around a core of

natural or occasionally metal fibers• A wire rope is made up of several strands of coiled wires• The wires are wound together in one direction to form a

strand• The strands are then laced together in the opposite

direction to form a wire rope

WIRE ROPE

WIRE ROPE: COMMON PROBLEMS

DAILY INSPECTION CHECKLIST:LOAD CHAIN

• Check load chain for damage, wear at contact points, cracks, or distorted (bent, twisted, or stretched) links

• Inspect all mechanical coupling links to insure linking pins are secure and in good condition

DAILY INSPECTION CHECKLIST:NYLON OR SYNTHETIC WEB SLINGS• Check the condition and

capacity of nylon or synthetic web slings

• Capacity ratings must be legible on the manufacturer’s label

• The capacity of the sling being used must be adequate for the load and attachment method

• Replace excessively worn slings immediately

WEB SLINGS: VARIOUS TYPES & CONFIGURATIONS

LOAD SAFETY: GENERAL

• Do not exceed the rated load capacity of the crane, hoist, chain, cable, slings, or other component

• Ensure that slings, load chains & other lifting devices are fully & securely seated in the hook before moving a load

• Remove slack from the sling, chain, or cable before lifting• Raise load only to the height necessary to clear lower

objects

LOAD SAFETY: GENERAL

• Ensure that all loads are lifted high enough to clear obstructions before moving the bridge or trolley

• Whenever possible, maintain a minimum clearance of one foot above loads and to the sides

• Never leave the controls unattended while a load is suspended • If it becomes necessary to leave the controls,

lower the load to the floor

LOAD SAFETY: AVOIDING SWINGING LOADS

Use the following practices to avoid swinging loads

• Locate the hoist directly above the lifting point of the load before lifting

• Lower loads directly below the hoist• Keep hoisting ropes vertical • Do not pull or push the load• Maintain two full wraps of cable on the hoisting drum

LOAD SAFETY: LIFTING AT- OR NEAR-CAPACITY LOADS• Before lifting loads at- or near-capacity

• Raise the load a few inches off the floor • Test the hoist brakes by returning the master switch or

push button to the “OFF” position

• If the brakes do not hold• Lower the load to the floor slowly & do not operate the

crane

• Report the situation immediately• Tag with an “Out of Order” or “Do Not Operate” tag,

and DO NOT USE until repaired

STANDARD HAND SIGNALS: FOR SAFETY


Razor Knife Training

Always be sure that blades are properly seated in knives and that knives are properly closed and/or fastened together before use.

A dull blade requires more force and is more likely to slip than a sharp one. Change the blade whenever it starts to tear instead of cut.

Always use sharp blades.

Always keep your free hand (and other body parts) away from the line of the cut.

Always wear a cut resistant glove on your free hand while cutting with a razor knife.

Always pull - never push the knife.

The blade could break off -wedging in the material and cutting your arm severely.

Don’t bend or apply side loads to blades by using them to open cans, loosen screws or pry loose objects

Blades are brittle and can snap easily.

Never leave a blade open.

Always retract the blade when not in use.

When making cut-outs on rolls always pull the knife down. Never push it away from you.

When using a knife to cut through thick materials, be patient - make several passes, cutting a little deeper into the material with each pass.

TIPS FOR CHANGING BLADES

• Carefully remove the used blade from the knife• Always hold the blade at the non-sharp side• Discard the used blade in a safe place (designated

sharps container)• Carefully wrap it in several layers of tape to cover sharp

side and points

• Make sure to re-assemble the knife correctly• Make sure the screw is tight

ALWAYS REPORT ANY INJURY TO YOUR SUPERVISOR

Key Points

Operating Principles…There are two main types

Indirect-Acting

A device that uses explosive powder to propel a captive piston against a fastener to drive the fastener into a structural element. In some areas, the generic term “powder actuated tool” is used.

Direct-Acting

With this type of tool, the explosive force of the cartridge acts directly on the fixing (fastener), driving it along the barrel, into the wall or material.
