Pinch / Touch Points
All OEM warning stickers should be closely
observed. Users of manually operated
equipment should be properly trained in its
use and be acutely aware of the potential
hazards the equipment poses to them and
surrounding personnel. McCoy recommends
adopting a ‘touch point’ paint scheme to
highlight areas which are acceptable to touch
on the equipment. All areas which are not
designated as an operation lever or a safety
handle should NEVER be touched or used
as a manipulation handle by users, unless
the equipment is fully de-pressurized and
is undergoing servicing by a quali ed
technician.
Pinch / Touch Point Paint Schemes
& Warning Labels
All McCoy equipment comes from the factory
painted according to our CE compliant
Pinch/Touch Point paint scheme, as well as
with warning labels designed to alert users
to potential danger. Upon repainting your
equipment, McCoy recommends adopting a
similar paint scheme to reduce the risk of injury
to operators and surrounding personnel.
READ BEFORE USING EQUIPMENT
WARNING
Placing limbs on or near areas of equipment
designated as a pinch point or a non ‘touch
point’ may result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
Use of any non-approved tong position
manipulation devices may expose personnel
to signi cant hazards.
● Manually operated tong operators should al-
ways stay within the recommended operator’s
position as illustrated above. Operator’s legs
are vertically clear of tong, hands only on op-
eration lever or designated safety handle, and
body is clear of movement range of snubbing
line.
