The Valve Refacer Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) provides a guide to operating a valve refacer safely and efficiently, reducing risks and improving workplace safety.

It covers the hazards (noise, electricity, sharp edges and more), the PPE to wear, the precautions and operator training, the pre-operational inspection, maintenance under lockout/tagout, and the step-by-step operation of the machine.

A hazard checklist for powered non-mobile plant, with Y, N and NA for each item, helps confirm the safety measures are in place.
