LOCKOUT GUIDE
The protection of life and limb through responsible actions and adequate safeguards are the
responsibility of all individuals in a workplace environment, or any environment where action or miss-
action could possibly endanger the safety and wellbeing of others.
All maintenance, repair and adjustment procedures performed on this equipment shall comply with
existing established Lockout requirements. At a minimum, these requirements must include the use
of a keyed padlock or similar device utilized to physically and securely remove and isolate any
power source from the equipment, preventing accidental reapplication while personnel may be in
exposed circumstances, subject to possible injury or death.
These requirements must also include the tagging of the lockout device to notify all individuals
working in the area, or anyone who could for whatever reason be in a position to possibly remove or
otherwise defeat the purpose of the lockout device, as to its installation, why, and the individual
responsible for its application.
Power sources include electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, or any other hazardous energy source. This
procedure shall be used to ensure that the machine is stopped and isolated from all potentially
hazardous energy sources and that these energy sources are locked out before employees perform
any servicing or maintenance when the unexpected energization, start-up of the machine, or the
release of stored energy could cause injury.
FOR THIS UNIT (where applicable)
Hydraulic power sources are provided with a lockable valve to block hydraulic pressure
from the system. Where applicable, this valve shall be placed in the off position and locked in
place.
Electrical power sources are provided either with a male plug for connection to the electrical
source, or are hardwired to the source distribution panel. When a plug is provided, the plug
shall be disconnected from the source power and secured within a covering and tagged
appropriately.
When hardwired to the source distribution panel, the panel shall have a manual disconnect
which is lockable in the off position, or in the event of a circuit breaker, the panel will have a
lockable door which will deny access to unauthorized personnel.
Pneumatic power is applied to the machine through a quick disconnect fitting. This quick
disconnect fitting shall be disconnected from the pneumatic power source and secured within
a covering and tagged appropriately.
