29 CFR 1910.147(d): Application of control. The established procedures for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) shall cover the following elements and actions was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1) through (d)(6): a.) Dimensional Metals, Inc., at the jobsite located at 58 Klema Dr. North, Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068: On and or/preceding March 15, 2022, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts, in-going nip points during servicing and cleaning the rollers of the flush panel roll former (model: CA-84-60-18-L-SP S/N: 19685.00). The employees failed to implement energy control application steps as LOTO devices were not applied to the electrical disconnect [per the 1910.147(d)(4) requirements]. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving dissipation of residual energy [(d)(S)(i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards. b.) Dimensional Metals, Inc., at the jobsite located at 58 Klema Dr. North, Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068: On and or/preceding March 15, 2022, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts, in-going nip points during cleaning rollers on the Forstner CTL machine (model: RM-TSS S/N: 104887). The employees failed to implement energy control application steps as LOTO devices were not applied to the electrical disconnect [per the 1910.147(d)(4) requirements]. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving dissipation of residual energy [(d)(S)(i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards. c.) Dimensional Metals, Inc., at the jobsite located at 58 Klema Dr. North, Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068: On and or/preceding March 15, 2022, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts, in-going nip points during cleaning, setting up and adjusting on the Schlebach roll former (model: SW25 S/N: SWI18-M1019).The employees failed to implement energy control application steps as LOTO devices were not applied to the electrical disconnect [per the 1910.147(d)(4) requirements]. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving dissipation of residual energy [(d)(S)(i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards. d.) Dimensional Metals, Inc., at the jobsite located at 58 Klema Dr. North, Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068: On and or/preceding March 15, 2022, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts, in-going nip points during cleaning rollers on the Strippit (model: 023102901 S/N: E01307215). The employees failed to implement energy control application steps as LOTO devices were not applied to the electrical disconnect [per the 1910.147(d)(4) requirements]. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving dissipation of residual energy [(d)(S)(i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards.
