Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 014A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.219(c)(2)(i): All exposed parts of horizontal shafting seven (7) feet or less from floor or working platform, excepting runways used exclusively for oiling, or running adjustments, shall be protected by a stationary casing enclosing shafting completely or by a trough enclosing sides and top or sides and bottom of shafting as location requires: On or about January 25, 2023, at a facility located at 502 E. Linden Street in Abbotsford, WI; multiple exposed horizontal shafts less than seven feet above the floor were not protected with a casing or other enclosure around the tops, sides, or bottoms of the shafts. RTE-3 contained part Lines 7, 6, and 5 each of which had a palletizing station. Conveyors for those palletizing stations were powered by motors turning pulleys located just after the Douglas boxing machine of each line and immediately adjacent to the palletizing station of each line. The unenclosed horizontal shafts exposed employees to entanglement hazards.
