CP600 Pivot Operation Manual
POM-EN-December 2018

Section Title
This standard covers the lockout/tagout procedures you must use when servicing your Western
pivot. The intent of Western corporation’s pivot lockout/tagout standard is to protect you or your
workers anytime the pivot requires servicing. Before any worker performs maintenance on the piv-
ot where unexpected energizing, start up release stored energy could occur and cause injury, the
pivot must be isolated and rendered inoperative. This standard establishes minimum performance
requirements for the control of such hazardous energy.
You must lock the pivot out if you are going to:
1. Remove or bypass a guard or other safety device.
2. Place any part of your body into an area on the pivot where there is a pinch point.
3. Work on the electrical circuitry.
4. Obstruct the pivot path (wheel track) with vehicles, equipment, or other obstacles while per
forming work on the eld itself.
5. Perform structural service which requires equipment to lift spans (i.e. boom truck).
