Four Sided Timber Moulding Machine

SOP · SOP-60280

  • Version 3

The Four Sided Timber Moulding Machine Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) guides businesses in using a four sided timber moulding machine safely, from the hazards and precautions to a step-by-step guide to setting up and operating it.

It covers the hazards (noise, electricity, moving parts, dust and debris, manual handling and poor housekeeping), the PPE to wear, operator training, the pre-operational inspection of the machine and work area, and maintenance under lockout/tagout.

The work area requirements, the pre-start and operating steps, and a hazard checklist for powered non-mobile plant, with Y, N and NA for each item, help confirm every safety measure is in place.
