Assignment: 3 - FACT SHEET
Elimination of Hazards – Pillar drill FACT SHEET
The appropriate safety equipment must be
used before using the pillar drill. Safety
goggles must be worn to prevent hot, sharp
swarf being propelled towards the eyes.
The material being drilled must be securely
fastened to the table.
Loose clothing must be fastened to prevent
entanglement.
A protective apron must be worn to prevent
hot, sharp swarf becoming entangled in
personal clothing.
The safety guard around the
material/chuck helps to stop
loose clothing or hair from
becoming entangled in the
chuck.
The start/stop/reverse buttons for the machine. The
kick stop (003b), when used, prevents the operator
from reaching across the rotating chuck and therefore
avoids a potential accident.

Assignment: 3 - Risks and Hazards - Identify potential risks using tools, processes and equipment
Risks and Hazards
A risk is the exposure to the chance of injury or loss.
For example: A fire-exit being obstructed may prevent people from leaving a dangerous area
The hazard in this situation would be the chair that is obstructing the fire-exit.
When making the ‘Bevel Gauge’ that you have been shown, what would the potential risks be from using the tools, materials,
processes and equipment?
What would the danger of not fulfilling the procedures be in an unsafe working environment?
Use the chart below to list examples of risks that may occur.

Following the recent incident in the workshop when Mr Poole, the workshop technician, fell off of the step ladder (in an excellent
simulation), it was clear that everyone had a different reaction to the incident and different ideas about the course of action to take.
In a discussion with Mrs Maloney and Mr Poole, describe and explain the emergency procedures that you consider should have been
Followed and use this information to create a policy document for such an incident.
