Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.213(h)(1): The upper hood shall completely enclose the upper portion of the blade down to a point that will include the end of the saw arbor. The upper hood shall be constructed in such a manner and of such material that it will protect the operator from flying splinters, broken saw teeth, etc., and will deflect sawdust away from the operator. The sides of the lower exposed portion of the blade shall be guarded to the full diameter of the blade by a device that will automatically adjust itself to the thickness of the stock and remain in contact with stock being cut to give maximum protection possible for the operation being performed: On or about 23 November 2016, the lower exposed portion of the circular saw blade on the radial arm saw was not guarded to the full diameter of the blade by a device that automatically adjusted itself to the thickness of the stock and the guard did not remain in contact with the material being cut. This exposed employees to contact with the rotating blade. Abatement is not required for this item.
