Lawn Edger

SOP · SOP-60120

  • Version 4

The Lawn Edger Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) sets out how to operate a lawn edger safely, from the hazards and PPE to a step-by-step guide to setting up, edging and fuelling.

It covers the pre-operational inspection of the machine, operator training and competency, gardening safety tips, fire equipment and first aid, maintenance under lockout/tagout, and shutdown and storage after use.

A hazard checklist for powered non-mobile plant, with Y, N and NA for each item, helps confirm every safety measure is in place.
