This document provides information about lockout/tagout procedures. The purpose of lockout/tagout is to prevent energy from accidentally being released while equipment is being serviced in order to protect employee safety and health. It defines key terms like energy sources, isolating devices, equipment specific procedures, lockout/tagout, and verify. It describes the roles of authorized employees who service equipment and affected employees who work near servicing activities. Working together, authorized employees properly plan work, isolate energy sources, and verify isolation, while affected employees avoid work areas and do not interfere with locks or tags.

Editor's Notes
- Thanks for coming! This sessions topic will be LO/TO/Verify Awareness. 1 of the Critical Four *We’ll do a few slides, then a short video. *Show you some actual hardware you might see in use around the plant. *Answer any questions we can or at least attempt to. *Then take the short quiz that was in you chair when you came in, and discuss the answers. So let’s get started with Lo/To/Awareness <ENTER> How You Play A Part
- Purpose is to prevent accidental release of energy that would hurt someone while they service or maintain a machine or piece of equipment. Ultimate goal is to protect the workers in a facility. Secondary is the protection of equipment. Also complies with the law OSHA 1910.147
- <ENTER> Electrical as in a disconnect box on the wall. Mechanical as in a spring on a garage door or lawn mower recoil starter. Hydraulic as in a cylinder on a log splitter. Pneumatic as an air cylinder CFM. Stored air, steam, or water that needs to be bled off for safety purposes. Gravity as on a punch press.
- <ENTER> Disconnect switch-wall box Slide gates, blocks or blind flanges-You will see these in the video-pertain to piping Valves-As on a steam line or a compressor. <ENTER> E-stops are not used. ANYBODY? Because they can be reset by another worker
- <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> Written instructions: How to properly shut a particular piece of equipment down. What energy is on a particular piece of equipment. Where to find the isolation devices on that machine to stop it at the source. Will be located in the department close to the machines.
- The Parts of a lockout/Tagout are: <ENTER> The Lock <ENTER> And the tags
- Blue locks protect equipment that has been shut down for repair or needs repair <ENTER> Red locks protect SGS personnel Major thing to remember is 1 lock, 1key, 1 person <ENTER> Green locks will be issued to contractors coming into the plant to work on SGS equipment <ENTER> Orange locks will be for group lockouts. Where more many people are working on a machine and 1 person is controlling the lockout. <ENTER>
- 3 MAJOR POINTS One lock-one key on red locks so everybody knows who is doing what and can be accounted for before the machine is turned back on. Keys on contractor locks controled by contractor and project leader/supervisor. Only “authorized employees place or remove locks and tags.
- Verification is nothing more than trying to start the machine. Pulling the levers, turning the knobs--What ever would release the energy as you would when you operate the equipment. <ENTER> Means you’ve checked everything. MAJOR POINT All start buttons and controls are worked to make sure you have gotten rid of all the residual energy. MAJOR POINT All start buttons and controls are to be returned to the off or neutral position after all energy has been released.
- You have an important role. <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER>
- <ENTER> Person that has been through the entire training. Is schooled in isolating the energy from a machine or piece of equipment.
- <ENTER> Any one who has not been trained and authorized to do lockout/tagout/verify. MAJOR POINT Never puts a lock or tag on a piece of equipment.
- This is the case of CFM operators. They are trained that they will be protected when the lubricate the back of the machines. You never put a lock or tag on equipment unless you are authorized.
- Everyone working together for the safety of all.
- <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> Those who perform the work from the planning to the re-start. MAJOR POINT Authorized employees should tell affected employees job is complete before they remove their locks and tags and turn the equipment back on.
- <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> <ENTER> Those who may be in the area and need to give the job a wide berth.
- This is a very important part of the equation. May mean the difference.
