BREATHING DUST IS DANGEROUS TO HEALTH 1) Operate in a well-ventilated place and use appropriate extraction equipment or a damp cloth to remove dust. 2) Dampen all dust. 3) Dispose of waste in heavy gauge plastic sacks in accordance with legislative requirements.
  • Page 7 GUIDANCE NOTES ON SAFETY 1.5.1 PERSONNEL a. Drilling may entail the employment of men inexperienced in this class of work. Care should therefore be taken to explain and enforce safety precautions, and to teach good practice in the handling and use of equipment and plant.
  • Page 8 b. Before travelling, checks should be made to all vehicles for road worthiness, giving special attention to lights, indicators, screen wipers, registration plates, brakes, brake lights, steering, security of loads, particularly overhanging loads, tyre pressure and wear and lack of mud before proceeding onto a public highway.
  • Page 9 o. When loading or un-loading on a public highway, assistants should be used to hold back traffic. These men should be responsible to the vehicle driver only. p. Where the access to and from the site does not have good visibility in all directions, traffic leaving the site should be controlled by a person nominated for that purpose.
  • Page 10 Where working platforms are required to support men, equipment and/or materials, the platform should be properly constructed. It should be of adequate dimensions, and if over 2 metres above ground, should have guard rails and tow boards so placed as to prevent falls of persons or articles from the platform.
  • Page 11 High noise level areas should be identified and hearing protection worn where necessary. g. Where engine noise or other sounds prohibit verbal communication, a clear set of signals which are clearly understood and known by each team member should be used. This will also apply when ear defenders are worn. h.
  • Page 12 o. The jaws of pipe wrenches should be kept in good order and replaced when necessary. p. Pipe or other material should never be used to extend the handle of any type of wrench or tong to obtain greater leverage. q.
  • Page 13 ee. The hoist should not be used to lift with less than three full wraps on the drum. ff. When moving drill rods and casing, gloves should be worn and the working platform clear of grease, mud or ice. gg. Drill rods or corebarrels should never be left balanced across or leaning onto the rig.
  • Page 14 Both the compressor and drilling rig should be equipped with air pressure gauges. Before commencing operations, a check should be made that these are operative, the readings should be noted, and the main air valve checked that it is in proper working order and can be used easily and quickly. This valve should be of the plug cock type.
  • Page 15 1.5.8 PLANT MAINTENANCE a. Plant, machinery and structures should be inspected at regular intervals in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. In the case of plant which is subject to corrosion, steps should be taken to effect repairs before corrosion reaches dangerous limits. b.
  • Page 16 m. When high pressure grease guns are used, protective gloves should always be worn and care taken to avoid injecting grease under the skin. n. Hoses used for steam cleaning should be of the type made for steam service. The metal nozzle should always be securely clamped to the hose and maintained in serviceable condition.
  • Page 17 b. Such training should include not only basic safety precautions, but also a thorough understanding of the correct use of all plant, equipment and tools. In addition, knowledge should be given of the forces of both energy and mass which the crew control through the medium of the drill rig. d.
  • Page 18 d. Washing and kitchen waste water should be discharged into a pit or sump dug into the ground remote from ditches and water courses. e. Empty tin cans, bottles, plastic containers, drums and scrap metal, wire rope etc., should be placed in containers for transport to recognised waste disposal sites.
  • Page 19 o. Rig personnel should wear only close-fitting clothing, preferably distinctly coloured overalls. Clothing should be kept clean by frequent washing, and each crew member should have a clean change of work clothes on location at all times. Particular care should be taken to ensure that drawstrings to hoods or other items of clothing are not left dangling so as to become entangled in any moving parts.
  • Page 20 1.5.12 WIRE ROPES - GENERAL SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE a. Regular inspection of ropes in service is essential if high standards of safety are to be ensured, and the relevant test certificate must be obtained and available. b. All running ropes in continuous service should be visually inspected once every working day by an authorised person.
  • Page 21 Rope delivered in reel form should have the reel jacked up to turn freely, so that the rope can be carried straight away from the reel. Provision should be made to stop reel rotation by using a braking device, however simple. g.
  • Page 22 v. When wire rope clips are used, the base of the clip must bear on the “live” end of the rope - the “live” end being the free-running portion of the rope.
