Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.212(a)(3)(ii): Point of operation guards were not designed and constructed as to prevent the operator from having any part of their body in the danger zone during the operating cycle: a) On or about 06/14/2017 in the weaving department; where the point of operation on the crimper/cutters was accessible through the point of operation guards. The openings in the guards were too big, too close to the point of operation. b) On or about 06/14/2017 in the shear areas; where the point of operation guards on the Aidra shear (3 1/2 inch opening - 6 1/2 inches from the point of operation) and the Peck, Stow shear (3 inch opening - 6 inches from the point of operation) did not protect the shear operators from the point of operation. c) On or about 06/14/2017 in the shear area; where the Stamco shear was operated with two operators, each having their own foot pedal. The foot pedals did not require concurrent operation of both foot pedals by first releasing both pedals before initiating the next stroke of the press. ABATEMENT DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED
