Safe Practices and Procedures Responsibility “It is the responsibility of the employer to train the employee in the proper selection and usage of tools, chains, etc., and to ensure that they are selected and used in that manner. In many instances, injury results because it is assumed that anybody knows how to use common hand tools. Observations and the record show that this is not the case.
Safe Practices Failure to observe one or more of the following five safe practices accounts for most hand and powered tool accidents: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES TO PROTECT EYES SELECT THE RIGHT TOOL FOR THE JOB KEEP TOOLS IN GOOD CONDITION USE TOOLS CORRECTLY KEEP TOOLS IN A SAFE PLACE Persons in any area where hand or powered tools are being used must always wear safety goggles. Never strike wrenches and tools with hammers or other objects.
Tong and Vise Chain Inspection The service life of leaf chains can be altered by a variety of adverse operating conditions. The following information discusses the most important of these conditions for consideration when operating or scheduling replacement of leaf chain systems. Overloading / Shock Loads / Side Loading Attempting to “inch loads which are beyond the rated capacity of the tool.
These conditions, when coupled with normal chain wear and inherent residual stress (normally in the chain as constructed), can result in environmentally assisted failure. It is impossible to predict chain life under complex conditions, as the degree of hostility and its effects are dependent on many variables such as temperature, time of exposure, concentration of corrosive atmosphere or medium, degree of abrasive wear, etc.
Periodic Inspection List for Petol Special Chain 1. PRIOR TO EACH USE, LEAF CHAIN AND TOOLS SHOULD BE INSPECTED FOR SERVICEABILITY AND LUBRICATION. 2. USE ONLY PETOL AND TITAN REPLACEMENT PARTS - NO OTHER PARTS ARE OF COMPARABLE STRENGTH, QUALITY, AND INTERCHANGEABILITY.
Safety Precautions 1. Always wear safety goggles to protect eyes. 2. Select the right tool for the job. 3. Keep tools in good condition. 4. Use tools correctly. 5. Keep tools in a safe place. 6. Wear protective clothing, gloves and safety shoes as appropriate. 7. Use lengths of assembled chain. Do not build lengths from individual components. 8. Do not attempt to rework damaged chain by replacing only the components obviously faulty. The entire chain may be compromised and should be discarded. 9.
