1.10 ENTRAPMENT

A. Make sure all personnel are out of compressor

1.11 IMPLEMENTATION OF
LOCKOUT/TAGOUT
The energy control procedure defines actions
necessary to lockout a power source of any machine
to be repaired, serviced or set-up, where unexpected
motion, or an electrical or other energy source, would
cause personal injury or equipment damage. The
power source on any machine shall be locked out by
each employee doing the work except when motion is
necessary during setup, adjustment or trouble-
shooting.
A. The established procedures for the application of
energy control shall cover the following elements
and actions and shall be initiated only by Autho-
rized Persons and done in the following sequence:
12
1. Review the equipment or machine to be
locked and tagged out.
2. Alert operator and supervisor of which
machine is to be worked on, and that power
and utilities will be turned off.
3. Check to make certain no one is operating
the machine before turning off the power.
4. Turn off the equipment using normal
shutdown procedure.
5. Disconnect the energy sources:
a. Air and hydraulic lines should be bled,
drained and cleaned out. There should be
no pressure in these lines or in the reser-
voir tanks. Lockout or tag lines or valves.
b. Any mechanism under tension or pres-
sure, such as springs, should be
released and locked out or tagged.
c. Block any load or machine part prior to
working under it.
d. Electrical circuits should be checked with
calibrated electrical testing equipment
and stored energy and electrical capaci-
tors should be safely discharged.
6. Lockout and/or Tagout each energy source
using the proper energy isolating devices
and tags. Place lockout hasp and padlock or
tag at the point of power disconnect where
lockout is required
performing work. Each person shall be
provided with their own padlock and have
possession of the only key. If more than one
person is working on a machine each person
shall affix personal lock and tag using a
multi-lock device.
7. Tagout devices shall be used only when
power sources are not capable of being
locked out by use of padlocks and lockout
hasp devices. The name of the person
affixing tag to power source must be on tag
along with date tag was placed on power
source.
8. Release stored energy and bring the
equipment to a "zero mechanical state".
9. Verify Isolation: Before work is started, test
equipment to ensure power is disconnected.
