General-duty citation text
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 amputation hazards: a) Tool Room- Provisions were not made to ensure that the Jet Equipment & Tools horizontal band saw, Serial #5020397, with a device to prevent the saw's motor from automatically restarting after power was restored. A magnetic restart type power switch was not provided as prescribed by the American National Standards, ANSI B11.10-2003. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard is to include, but not be limited to the following: (1) Provide a magnetic restarter or similar device as required by American national Standards Institute (ANSI) B11.10-2003 Section 6.11, that in the event of an interruption in the electrical supply would prevent the saw from restarting automatically when power is restored. In accordance with the requirements of 29 CFR 1903.19(d), abatement certification is required for this violation (using the CERTIFICATION OF CORRECTIVE ACTION WORKSHEET), and in addition, documentation demonstrating that abatement is complete must be included with your certification. This documentation may include, but is not limited to, evidence of the purchase or repair of the equipment, photographic or video evidence of abatement, or other written records.
