P.L. 91-596 Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970: The employer
did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from
recognized
hazards
that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to
employees in that
employees were exposed to the hazards of hot surfaces, gasoline fueling,
gasoline vapors and
engine exhaust and unguarded power transmission equipment:
(a)Workplace - The three-wheel "RED RIDER" motorized utility carts used to
transport
employees and equipment had the gasoline engines in an unenclosed area at
the front wheel by
the handle bar steering assembly.  The fuel tank, with a vented cap, was
at the top of the engine
next to the unprotected, uncovered exhaust pipe and the muffler (which was
also in front of the
operator and passenger area).  The power transmission equipment (including
v-belts, pulleys,
chain and sprocket(s)) was not guarded and located in front of the
operator and passenger area,
on or about 4/7/94.
Among other methods, some feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct
this hazard
are:
1.Pipe engine exhaust gases in a direction away from the operator and
passenger area.
2.Guard or insulate exhaust piping in areas where contact by employee(s)
is possible.
3.Move the gasoline fuel tank to a protected area to the rear of the
operator and passenger
area.
4.Provide a fuel tank filler pipe located in such a position or protected
in such a manner
as to not allow spill(s) or overflow to run onto the engine, exhaust or
electrical equipment.
5.Enclose the engine, including hot surfaces, belts, pulleys, chains and
sprockets, or other
reciprocating, rotating, or other moving parts or equipment.
