    WV FACE Fatal Fact

    A worker was trimming

    trees and dumping brush

    over a steep bank.

    He was not wearing his

    seat belt.

    The drop-off had no

    barricade or stop log.

    He accidentally rolled

    over the banks edge.

    He was crushed by his

    tractor.

    Preventing Machine Hazards

    There are thousands of machine-related

    injuries each year.

    Proper training can prevent these injuries.

    Workers should know how to operate a

    piece of machinery and inspect for

    problem areas before turning on the

    power.

    Preoperational Considerations

    Have you reviewed the owner's manual?

    Are the Warning decals in place?

    Are the machine guards properly placedand in good condition?

    Are air and hydraulic lines in good

    condition and not leaking? Is the setup a proper setup?

    Is the work zone free from hazards?

    Personal Protection

    Wear personalprotective equipment,such as goggles,safety shoes andleather gloves.

    Long hair should betucked under to avoidgetting caught inmachinery.

    Avoid wearingjewelry.

    Machine Maintenance Safety

    Keep machines

    repaired, lubricated,

    and adjusted.

    Clearly mark controlswitches and valves

    that control machines.

    Check machines for

    emergency stop

    switches

    While Operating Machines

    Stay away from moving parts.

    Turn power off and remove key before

    working around or performing

    maintenance on the machine.

    Use appropriate lockout and tagout

    procedures to prevent equipment from

    being re-energized while work is being

    performed on or around it.

    Wood Chippers and Shredders

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    14/91

    14

    Hazards of Wood Chippers

    Workers feeding materials into self-feedingchippers or shredders can get caught inchipper knives.

    A workers limb can be shredded. An unlatched, improperly secured, or

    damaged hood can be thrown from the

    chipper or shredder. Fixtures can easily be thrown if they come

    into contact with the rotating knives.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    15/91

    15

    Selecting the Work Area

    Position the chipper or shredder so that workers

    do not have to stand on slopes when feeding

    material into the machine.

    Keep the area around the chipper or shredderfree of tripping hazards.

    Put up warning signs to keep the public a safe

    distance from work area.

    Ensure the dislodging chute is positioned to

    prevent chips from being blown in any direction.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    Chipper Safety Precautions

    Wear a hard hat, sturdy slip-resistantfootwear, eye protection, hearingprotection, gloves without cuffs, and pants

    without cuffs. Keep shirtsleeves buttoned and shirts

    tucked into pants.

    Read the operators manual and completetraining on proper use and safetyprecautions before using it.

    17

    Chipper Safety Precautions

    Do not work alone when using a chipper or

    shredder.

    Test all safety and emergency shut-off

    devices before operating the chipper or

    shredder.

    Make sure the material to be chipped is

    free from stones, metal, and other foreign

    objects.

    Hazards of Mowers

    Objects can bethrown from themower at very highrates of speed.

    Before mowingremove debris fromlawn.

    Keep all guards andsafety shields inplace.

    General Power Mower Safety

    Begin by reading the operators manual.

    Wear protective, close-fitting clothing.

    Use hearing protection if indicated by the

    operators manual. Take mowers out of gear before starting.

    Read all warning labels.

    Obey the warning labels!

    Leave Safety Devices Alone!

    Never disengage or

    bypass any safety

    guard or interlock

    switch. This mower now has

    the ability to amputate

    and throw objects at

    deadly speeds.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    29/91

    29

    Prevent Dangerous Fires!

    Never fill the gasoline

    tank if the engine is

    running.

    Store gasoline in anapproved, properly

    labeled container.

    Never store gasoline

    or any other material

    in a food container.

    Riding Mower Precautions

    Turn off the mower before getting off.

    When mowing on a slope with a riding

    mower, you should mow down the slope.

    Be aware of power take offs.

    Wear a seat belt all of the time when the

    mower is equipped with ROPS.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    33/91

    33

    Make Seatbelts a Habit!

    This landscaper isnttaking any chances.

    Using the belt willensure he remainswithin the safety zoneprovided by the rollover protectivestructure.

    Seatbelts should beused 100% of thetime.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    34/91

    34

    Walk Behind Mower Precautions

    Start push mowers from a firm stance with

    feet in a safe position.

    When mowing on a slope with a push

    mower, you should mow across the slope.

    In the event of a fall, push the mower

    away from the body.

    This Worker Had a Close Call

    Anything with

    rotating blades

    can do damage

    to your body. Keep all parts

    of your body

    away from

    lawnmowerblades.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    36/91

    36

    Dress for the Task at Hand

    Sturdy shoes are a must; steel-toed workboots are advised.

    Long pants and long sleeve shirts protect

    from flying debris, grass clippings, andsun.

    Safety glasses or goggles, especially

    when mowing near solid objects like graveldriveways.

    Hearing protection may be necessary.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    37/91

    37

    Wear the right shoes!

    A poor choice of foot

    wear.

    Steel toed boots with

    lugged soles shouldbe worn.

    The steel toe will help

    protect your feet.

    The lugged soles will

    help prevent slipping.

    Tractor Hazards

    A tractor is a useful piece of equipment tolandscapers, but misuse can be deadly.

    A tractor can overturn often crushing the

    operator. Operators can be entangled in PTO shaftsand other rotating parts.

    People can be struck-by flying objects

    when using pull behind rotary mowerattachments.

    41/91

    41

    Preventing Overturns

    Safe work practices are necessary.

    Most overturns occur to the side.

    Select a low gear and match speed toconditions and loads.

    If a front-end loader is mounted, keep it as

    low as possible.

    Always remember, If you are

    uncomfortable on the slope, its too steep.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    42/91

    42

    Preventing Overturns

    Rear overturns pose a threat as well.

    It may be possible to back up slopes or

    drive forward down slopes that are too

    steep to traverse.

    Shift to the lowest gear that will be needed

    before climbing the slope - dont change

    gears on the slope.

  • 8/14/2019 english_b_9_machinery_vehicular_safety.ppt

    43/91

    43

    Preventing Overturns

    Look your work area over for ditches,

    drop-offs and stream banks.

    Consider marking or barricading bank

    edges storage areas, and other frequently

    traveled work zones.

    A rollover protectivestructure (ROPS) willoffer significantprotection.

    These roll-bars aredesigned to withstand thedynamic forces during arollover.

    Using the seat belt is

    necessary to ensure thatyou remain within thezone of protectionprovided by the ROPS.

    Excavation Safety Facts

    Each year as many as 400 workers die and

    another 4000 are injured from cave-ins.

    Most deaths are in trenches 5-14 ft deep.

    Cave-ins cause deaths by; Suffocation, Crushing,Loss of Circulation and Falling Objects.

    One cubic foot of soil can weigh up to 140lbs

    One cubic yard can weigh 3000 lbs.
