Operation Manual - SP 305
Lock-Out, Tag-Out
A lock-out, tag-out program should be developed by
your employer, according to current OSHA/ANSI
rules. The procedure to disable the machine from
accidental starting or energy release is as follows:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Remove the key. Carry the key with you. If there
are additional keys, lock them away or otherwise
account for them.
3. Put a “Do Not Operate” tag over the key switch.
4. Verify zero pressure on the gauge shown in
Figure 10.
5. If you will be working on the accumulator or the
tires, be aware that the compressed gas in those
items will remain a possible hazard even when
the machine is disabled. In the case of the
accumulator, contact Schwing America’s Service
Department for advice. Before working with the
tires, know the safety rules for tires.
Other Things You Need to Know
Reordering documentation or warning labels
It is our intention that each machine in the field have an
Operation Manual, a Safety Manual, a laminated Quick
Index, a laminated Co-worker Safety Rules booklet,
and a Spare Parts List available to the operator and
shop personnel at all times. Replacement Operation
Manuals and Spare Parts Lists are available for a
nominal charge. The Safety Manual, Quick Index, and
Co-worker Safety Rules booklets are available without
charge if you supply a serial number when ordering,
and additional sets are available for a nominal fee. In
addition, the warning labels which are supplied with
the unit must be easily readable and firmly attached to
the unit. If the labels fade or peel, if you repaint the
machine, or if they become loose or unreadable for any
reason, duplicate sets are available. The only charge for
replacement labels is the cost of shipping. The labels
are available as sets or individually. Each label has a
part number printed on it, and a decal location guide is
available. Aluminum tags are not shipped with decal
sets and must be purchased separately.
Charging Accumulators
Before charging the accumulator, read and understand
all of the instructions found in the Maintenance section
of this manual. Charging an accumulator with
compressed air or oxygen may result in a serious
explosion.
