Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 007A 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 March 1, 2023, and times prior, employees were exposed to struck by hazards due to the Baldor Grinder Buffer item 350 work rest not being adjusted to 1/8th of an inch.
