General-duty citation text

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The
employer did not furnish
a place of employment which was free from recognized hazards that were
likely to cause death
or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were not protected
from the automatic
restart of metal-cutting saws:
The Powermatic Vertical Band Saw in the Tool Room, did not have a
provision to
prevent the automatic start-up in the event of a power outage (e.g.
magnetic
motor
restart).
ANSI B11.10-1990, Section 5.2.3.4 states that in the event of an
interruption in the
electrical power supply, the machine shall not restart automatically when
power is
restored. A feasible means of abatement would to be provide a magnetic
restarter or
similar device as required by ANSI B11.10-1990.
