Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.215(a)(4): Work rest(s) on grinding machinery were not adjusted closely to the wheel with a maximum opening of one-eighth inch: (a) Magna Energy Services, LLC @ 0902 Road 4, Wiggins, CO. On or before February 12, 2013 the employer did not ensure that the Dayton abrasive grinder(s) used in the shop by employees was equipped with an adjustable tool work rest for safely grinding operation and to compensate for any wheel wear by maintaining it adjusted closely to the wheel with a maximum opening of an 1/8 inch to prevent the work from being jammed. This condition exposed employees to the hazard of flying projectiles in an event of grinding wheel breakage during operating cycles.
