General-duty citation text
29 CFR 1910.147(d):Application of control. The established procedures for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) shall cover the following elements and actions and shall be done in the following sequence: (2) turn off and shut down the machine (3) physically locate and operate the energy isolating devices in such a manner as to isolate the machine or equipment from the energy sources. (4) affix lockout or tagout devices to each energy isolating device (5) following the application of lockout or tagout devices to energy isolating devices, all potentially hazardous stored or residual energy shall be relieved, disconnected, restrained, and otherwise rendered safe. (6) Prior to starting work on machines that have been locked out or tagged out, verify that isolation and deenergizing of the machine or equipment have been accomplished. a) On or about 03/05/2021, located in the Paper Department, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with rotating blades parts while unjamming paper in the machines and/or changing the main paper master roll at the Paper Fanfold FL-2 Machine in that the employer failed to implement energy control application steps as the processor was not shut down nor turned off to perform the servicing work [per the 1910.147(d)(2) requirements]. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [(d)(3)], LOTO device application [(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [(d)(5)(i), and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine hazards.
