    Grinding Machines
    Because of severe injuries that can arise due to mishandling, incorrect mounting, assembly or
    use only adequately trained persons must use these machines.
    1. Ensure that the safety guards are in place before staring work and the work piece/tool
    rest as close as practicable to the wheel. All personnel must wear goggles or face shields
    before use.
    2. After switching on, allow the wheel to made its designed speed before use.
    3. Competent personnel specifically trained for these duties and appointed by their
    supervisor will only carry out all maintenance, dressing and grinding wheel changing.
    Compressed air
    Extreme caution must be used when using compressed air, as it is delivered at high pressure. If it
    enters the body it can rupture internal organs and cause serious injury and even death.
    Do not attempt to clean off coveralls or clothing as it can force harmful particles through the skin.

    be controlled.

    (MSDS) for the handling, storage, disposal and emergency actions before attempting to
    use any chemical substance.

    used that cannot be identified.

    Ensure that all approved chemical containers are clearly labelled and scaled when not in
    use.
    Handling of chemicals must be restricted to personnel who have trained in their safe use.

    Always wear protective gloves while handling chemicals & acids.

    The storage of chemicals must be restricted to designated areas. These areas must have
    the appropriate warning signs such as Corrosives, Acids, etc.
