Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.177(f)(1):The employer did not ensure that employees remove the valve core to completely deflate the tire before demounting a multi-piece rim wheel. On or about 06/21/2023, in the maintenance shop located at 40096 Runway Blvd, Pratt, KS 67124, employee(s) were exposed to struck-by hazards in that it was not ensured that the Michelin Condor aircraft's left tire was completely deflated before demounting.
