SAFETY SUMMARY - Continued
RESUSCITATION
Personnel working with or near high voltage shall be familiar with approved methods of resuscitation.
Should someone be injured and stop breathing, begin resuscitation immediately. A delay could cost the victim’s
life. Resuscitation procedures shall be posted in all electrically hazardous areas.
FINGER RINGS/JEWELRY
Finger rings have caused many serious injuries. Remove rings, watches and other metallic objects that may
cause shock or burn hazards. Unless specifically allowed by shop safety procedures, remove finger rings and
jewelry during all maintenance activity.
COMPRESSED AIR
Do not use compressed air for general cleaning. Compressed air may be used only for cleaning of electric
motors. Use of compressed air can create an environment of propelled particles. Do not direct air streams toward
self or other personnel. Air pressure shall be reduced to less than 30 psig and used with effective chip guarding
and personal protective equipment.
DANGEROUS PRESSURES
Care must be taken to ensure that all pressurized connections are proper and tight. All system components
must be compatible with pressure applied. During testing protect personnel with safety shields or keep them at
a distance sufficient to prevent injury.
SPRING LOADED MECHANISM
A spring loaded mechanism can cause injury if released in an uncontrolled manner. Always take extra care
when disassembling this type of mechanism.
DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment of equipment unless another person capable of rendering aid
and resuscitation is present.
LIFTING AND HANDLING
Use adequate personnel or appropriately rated lifting and handling devices to move these components.
LOCKOUT/TAGOUT
Personnel shall be aware of the hazards associated with unguarded machinery parts, capacitors, gaseous
and wet pipe systems, spring loaded devices, etc. Lockout/tagout the energy source prior to performing mainte-
nance, adjustments or other procedures that would bypass safety guards, barriers or otherwise expose personnel
to hazardous energy sources. Any equipment, machine or process that could unexpectedly energize, startup or
release energy will be equipped with a means to lockout/tagout the energy source. Electrical, pneumatic and
