    Protective hard hats must meetANSI Standard Z89.1

    Protective hard hats should: Resist penetration by objects. Absorb the shock of a blow. Be water-resistant and slow

    burning.

    Types of Hard Hats Class A

    Provides impact and penetrationresistance along with limited voltageprotection (up to 2,200 volts)

    Class B Provide the highest level of

    protection against electrical hazards,

    with high-voltage shock and burnprotection (up to 20,000 volts). Alsoprovide protection from impact andpenetration hazards byflying/falling objects.

    Class C Provide lightweight comfort and

    impact protection but offer noprotection from electrical hazards.

    Hard Hats with any of the followingdefects should be removed fromservice and replaced: Perforation, cracking, or deformity

    of the brim or shell; Indication of exposure of the brim

    or shell to heat, chemicals or

    ultraviolet light and otherradiation.

    Additional PPE that can be attachedto the hardhat are: Face Shield Hearing Protection Hard Hat liners-Must be FR. Breathing apparatus taped to the

    inside of the hard hat.

    You can search for specific gloves by the type of

    chemical, hazard, and application. This website also shows the breakthrough time

    and the cut, abrasion, and puncture ratings of eachglove.

    Engineering controls include thefollowing: substitution with a less toxic material

    change in process to minimizecontact with hazardous chemicals isolation or enclosure of a process or

    work operation wet methods to reduce the generation

    of dust, when applicable general dilution ventilation local exhaust, including the use of

    chemical fume hoods or other typesof specialized ventilation systems

    Administrative controls includeemployee training, use of standardoperating procedures, and work

    Respirators and other personal protectiveequipment may be used where engineeringcontrols are not feasible or cannot reduce

    exposure to acceptable levels, or whileengineering controls are being installed.

    The need for a respirator is dependent uponthe type of operations and the nature and

    quantity of the materials in use and must beassessed on a case by case basis.

    DATE: 1-31-13LOCATION: I-79 Waynesburg AreaTIME: 6:45 A.M.COMPANY: CONSOL Energy

    A CONSOL Energy employee was traveling south on I-79 in theWaynesburg area, when the employee struck a toolbox that was inthe middle of the interstate. The toolbox had blown out of anothervehicle that was traveling on the road. Another vehicle traveling onthe road clipped the toolbox with the front bumper whilechanging lanes to avoid the object, thus putting the toolbox in the

    path of travel of the CONSOL employee and a collision with theobject occurred. No injuries reported and the company vehiclesustained moderate damage. Although no injuries occurred, thiscould have been a very serious accident, and has importanttakeaways that can be utilized throughout the company, as many ofthe company vehicles are equipped with truck-mounted toolboxes.

    TIPS FOR SAFETY:

    VEHICLES equipped with truck-mounted toolboxes should be professionally installed according tomanufacturers recommendations. NEVERmodify the mounting hardware or the toolbox. Hardware

    is engineered according to manufacturers conditions of application, installation, and use.

    When PRE-OPERATIONALLYinspecting your vehicle, check the tightness of the mounting boltsand bed rail clips, and adjust accordingly. Hardware such as bolts can work loose from vibration.

    REMEMBER- most of the roads that company vehicles travel expose hardware to above average

    vibration.

    ALWAYS ensure that items in the bed of pickup trucks or other vehicles are properly secured byutilizing proper securing methods.

    NEVERoverload your toolbox with equipment that exceeds loading limits of the toolbox. Thisproduct is only intended and safe for use in storing and transporting small tools, equipment and

    other simil ar mater ials.* REMEMBER- Accelerating and decelerating forces affect mounting

    hardware and components. Overloading can cause hardware components to fail under theseconditions.

    ALWAYS ensure that the toolbox is manufactured for the vehicle application for which it isintended. RIGHT TOOL-RIGHT JOB

    The following illustration is the typical instillation of a truck mounted saddle toolbox. This representationshould not be substituted for specific manufacturers recommendations or instillation procedures. This is

    provided to give employees an understanding of how a typical toolbox is mounted. A full understanding ofthe toolbox owners manual is strongly recommended.

    The picture depicted below gives a basic understanding of how a toolbox mounts to a pickup truck bed. Thebolts and hardware can usually be located by opening the toolbox lid and looking on the inside edges.

    Usually the toolbox is mounted with 4 bolts and bedrail brackets with a locking nut (2 on each side of thetoolbox-Left and Right respectively). As stated above, these bolts need to be checked periodically for tightness. Ifa deficiency is noted, the bolts should be retightened to ensure the toolbox is secure. Note: In addition tochecking the tightness and securement of bolts periodically, thread sealant such as lock tight can help ensurethe connection is maintained competent.
