Lock out/tag out procedures are very important! They are detailed and designed to prevent serious injuries or fatalities. It is critical that they be followed exactly. However, there are some important details that are not included in some procedures.
The last step in the process is or should be the TRY step. Make sure your procedure is LO/TO/TO -- Lock Out/Tag Out/Try Out. The try step is the last step and a very important step!
Some Examples Why:
But wait, there is another hidden hazard!
Some scrap processing equipment have exclusion zones that prevent people from entering while equipment is operating. In some cases entry gates are equipped with interlocks that shut the process down if the gate is opened. Also sometimes conveyers have guards that are interlocks that shut down the conveyer if the guard is removed
If the equipment has interlocks, it is important to verify that the interlocks are satisfied before doing the try step. It is a good practice to put warnings on lock out boxes indicating that the equipment has interlocks.
Always include a TRY Step in your lock out process! It may save a serious injury.
