"Employers are responsible for the safe condition of tools and equipment used by employees, including tools and equipment which may be furnished by employees.
Hazard Getting caught between the joint and tongs tubing or stump Possible Solution Avoid placing hands on the end of the stump Being struck by the tubing hanger wrench if it should slip Use the correct tools for each task Getting fingers and hands pinched and caught between tubing hanger and tubing head. Inspect the tools before use.
Periodic Maintenance and Inspection Schedule Daily 1. Visually inspect elevator for signs of corrosion or damaged components. 2. Inspect for any visual evidence of external cracks. Visible cracks indicate potential failure points, and if they are discovered, the elevator should be immediately removed from service. 3. Examine link support arm surfaces for deformation. If the surfaces are excessively worn, the elevator needs repair. (See ‘Inspection Wear Limits’ for maximum allowable wear) 4.

Operation To attach the elevator to the tubing, the elevator operator stands on one side of the tubing which is supported in a “spider” with the elevator on the opposite side of the tubing. The operator reaches around the tubing with one hand on either side of the tubing. The elevator is gripped by the handles of the elevator. The operator pulls the opened elevator to the tubing and then brings the two handles together so that the elevator is wrapped around the tubing.
