Periodic inspections and maintenance Periodic mature inspection for hand tools using for electrical maintenance Ensuring that all electrical equipment is installed properly in accordance with regulations and is maintained in good condition. Using LVSD (Low voltage safety devices) whenever possible. Use fully insulated electrode holder to reduce the risk of electric shock. Wearing dry leather gloves, insulated foot wear and other appropriate protective clothing Gather Information on the Welding Machine to be used and note the instruction manual for Electrical Rating, duty cycles and capabilities. Ascertain if equipment has been properly installed by qualified electricians and maintained in good condition Examine and inspect power switches, equipment, terminals, connections, cables, inter connectors and insulation for condition and current carrying capacity. Examine the working area to check for potentially live structures or components and wet areas.

Blasters will not work continuously for more than 40 minutes with minimum rest of 10 minutes to prevent permanent injury throw vibration. Identify hazardous machines, tools and processes, especially those which cause tingling or numbness in the hands after a few minutes’ use If possible, do the job another way without using high-vibration equipment, e.g rotary hammers, powered pedestrian-controlled mowers, hand-fed forging hammers etc Ask about likely vibration levels for the way you use equipment before deciding on which new tool or machine to buy or hire Provide suitable tools designed to cut down vibration Make sure people use the right tool for the job and are trained to use it correctly Make sure machines (including tools) are maintained as recommended by the manufacturer to prevent vibration increasing – check their sharpness, the condition of abrasive wheels, and anti-vibration mounts etc where fitted Check whether the job can be altered to reduce the grip or pressure needed

Electrical cords should not be on the floor, Tools should have designated areas Storage and bins for waste should be readily available and be easy to empty Structured programs that focus on organization, cleanliness and Standardization can be introduced to the workplace to assist with this. Cleanliness can be maintained Housekeeping can be eliminated from the source e.g. leaks, etc.

Always check all hoses and nozzles before state job each day M
Replace the hose and pipes if found cracked, damaged Safety valves should be inspected by third party Make arrangements for collaboration and TPCs for each equipment involved in air compression
Unauthorised entry should prohibited in high air pressure areas Never point an air hose at anyone, including you, in fun or to remove dirt from clothing or the body. Never use compressed air for cleaning without adequate eye protection. Use safety glasses with side shields or goggles. If it is essential to use compressed air to clean dirt and chips from your work, use a proper nozzle on the end of the air hose to maintain air pressure at 30 pounds per square inch or less. Place a screen around the work area, or check to see that other workers are safely out of the range of flying particles. Whenever possible, substitute brushes or vacuum systems for compressed air in cleaning operations. Before using compressed air, check the air hose for damage or signs of failure. Make sure connections and couplings are tight. A loose air hose under 80 pounds per square inch makes a dangerous bull whip! Before attempting to disconnect a hose from an airline, the air should be cut off, and the remaining air bled from the line. Keep air hoses off the floor where they become tripping hazards and are subject to damage by vehicles, doors, and dropped tools. If possible, suspend air hoses from overhead. Never use compressed air to transfer flammable liquids.
