Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 006A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.215(a)(4): Work rests. On offhand grinding machines, work rests shall be used to support the work. They shall be of rigid construction and designed to be adjustable to compensate for wheel wear. Work rests shall be kept adjusted closely to the wheel with a maximum opening of one-eighth inch to prevent the work from being jammed between the wheel and the rest, which may cause wheel breakage. The work rest shall be securely clamped after each adjustment. The adjustment shall not be made with the wheel in motion. a. On or about July 11, 2018, in the cut and prep area, the abrasive wheel on the right side of the GE Cadet pedestal grinder (model: 100; S/N: 34943) had a work rest that was not adjusted closely to the wheel allowing for an opening of approximately three-eighth inch.
