LOCK-OUT & TAG-OUT INSTRUCTIONS 2-1

FOREWORD: Before entering any part of the compactor, be sure that all sources of energy have been shut off, all poten- tial hazards have been eliminated, and the compactor is locked-out and tagged-out in accordance with OSHA and ANSI requirements. If the ram is pressing against a load, move the ram rearward before shutting the compactor down. The specific lock- out and tag-out instructions may vary from company to company (i.e. multiple locks may be required, or other machinery may need to be locked-out and tagged-out). The following instructions are provided as minimum guidelines.

INSTRUCTIONS

1.Move the main disconnect lever to the OFF position.

2.Padlock the disconnect lever with a keyed padlock and take the key with you.

3.Along with the padlock, place an appropriate, highly visible, warning tag on the disconnect lever. The tag should provide a warning such as: “Danger: Do not operate equipment. Person working on equipment.” or

“Warning: Do not energize without the permission of ________________.”

4.After locking and tagging the compactor, try to start and operate the compactor (as outlined in the Operating Instructions) to make sure the lock-out and tag-out is effective. If the lock-out and tag-out is effective, remove the key from the keyswitch and take with you.

ELECTRICAL: The motor control panel contains high voltage components. Only authorized service person- nel should be allowed inside the panel. Authorized ser- vice personnel should be allowed inside the panel only after the compactor has been locked-out and tagged- out.

HYDRAULIC: Stored hydraulic energy must be removed from the compactor hydraulic cir- cuit for complete lock-out and tag-out. Make sure that this energy has been relieved by manually depressing the solenoid valve pin located in the center of each coil end of the directional control valve.
