Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.213(r)(4): The mention of specific machines in paragraphs (a) thru (q) and this paragraph (r) of this section, inclusive, is not intended to exclude other woodworking machines from the requirement that suitable guards and exhaust hoods be provided to reduce to a minimum the hazard due to the point of operation of such machines. a. On or about August 27, 2018, located in the Old Pallet Plant, employees operated a Whirlwind upcut saw to cut wood material. The upcut saw did not have suitable guarding to prevent employee exposure to the saw's point of operation, thereby exposing the employees to an amputation hazard.
