Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(d): The established procedure for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) did not cover the actions listed in and was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1)-(6): A) Tarpstop, LLC, located at 12000 Williams Road, Perrysburg, OH 43551: On or about July 27, 2016, the employer did not ensure that employees implement energy control procedures on the KMT circular cutoff saw (Model CT 350 AV, Serial # 120589002) prior to conducting activities such as, but not limited to, changing saw blades. The KMT circular cutoff saw was not isolated from the electrical energy source prior to engaging in this maintenance activity. The employees were exposed to amputation hazards. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [1910.147(d)(3)], lock-out/tag-out device application [1910.147(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [1910.147(d)(5)], and verification of isolation [1910.147(d)(6)], are not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards such as, but not limited to, changing saw blades.
