SOP · SOP-60162

  • Version 3

The Straight Knife Fabric Cutter Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) provides a guide to operating this equipment safely, so workers know the precautions and procedures to follow.

It covers the hazards (noise, electricity, blades, fibres and dust), the PPE to wear, operator training and competency, a pre-operational inspection, sharpening the knife, electrical safety, step-by-step operation, and daily, twice weekly and weekly maintenance.

It also sets out the response to minor and severe lacerations and amputation of a finger, and includes a register to record employee training and induction.
