Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.215(b)(9): The distance between the abrasive wheel periphery(s) and the adjustable tongue or the end of the safety guard peripheral member at the top exceeded one fourth inch: The employer is failing to protect employees from struck-by hazards. This was most recently documented on or about November 25, 2019 at CNH Industrial, LLC. located at 3301 S. Hoover Rd. Wichita, Kansas. The employer failed to ensure that the distance between the abrasive wheel periphery and the adjustable tongue guard was adjusted to no greater than one fourth inch. Employees engaged in grinding activities at the Wissota bench grinder located in the Experimental Fabrication and Tooling Shop were exposed to struck-by hazards in that the distance from the abrasive wheel to the adjustable tongue guard measured approximately 3/4 inches on the right wheel and 7/8 inches on the left wheel. 29 CFR 1903.19(c)(1) requires certification that the abatement of the above violation is complete.
