1	Lockout/Tagout Standard Proper Lockout Procedure
2	Lockout Lockout is a technique used to prevent the release of hazardous energy, or to prevent the hazardous energy from escaping. A padlock is placed on the appropriate energy isolating device that is in the off or closed position.
3	The “Fatal Five” Main Causes of Lockout/Tagout Injuries Failure to stop equipment Failure to disconnect from power source Failure to dissipate (bleed, neutralize) residual energy Accidental restarting of equipment Failure to clear work areas before restarting
4	Definitions Authorized Employee - one who locks out machines or equipment in order to perform the servicing or maintenance on that machine or equipment. Affected Employee - one whose job requires him/her to operate or use a machine or equipment on which servicing or maintenance is being performed under lockout, or whose job requires him/her to work in an area in which such servicing or maintenance is being performed.
5	Definitions, cont. Energy Isolating Device - A mechanical device that physically prevents the transmission or release of energy. Energy Control Procedure - Safety program adopted by the employer that includes energy control procedures plus provisions for inspecting the procedures and training employees for lockout/tagout.
6	Hazardous Energy Sources Found in the Workplace Electrical Generated Static Mechanical Transitional Rotational Thermal Machines or Equipment Chemical Reactions Potential Pressure Hydraulic Pneumatic Vacuum Springs Gravity
7	Types of Lockout Devices Plug Locks Ball Valve Lockout Gate Valve Lockout Group Lockout Hasp Electrical Hydraulic, pneumatic, and other pressurized systems
8	Lockout Procedure Alert the operator (s) that power is being disconnected. Preparation for Shutdown Equipment Shutdown Equipment Isolation Application of Lockout Devices Control of Stored Energy Equipment Isolation-Verification
9	Removal of Lockout Ensure equipment is safe to operate Safeguard all employees Remove lockout/tagout devices. Except in emergencies, each device must be removed by the person who put it on. Last person to take off lock Follow checklist
10	Temporarily Reactivating Equipment Remove unnecessary tools from the work area and make sure everyone is clear of the equipment Remove lockout/tagout devices and re-energize the system As soon as the energy is no longer needed, isolate the equipment and re-apply lockout/tagout, using the six step procedure.
11	Special Situations Servicing lasts longer than one shift. Contractors are performing service or maintenance at your workplace Worker who applied lock is not available
12	Tidbits of Info. Never attempt lockout/tagout procedures unless you have been trained and certified by your employer under an approved Energy Control Program. Never loan or share your lock, combination, or key with anybody else. Always be sure all lockout/tagout devices are compatible with the environment in which they will be used i.e. corrosive, humid, etc.
