Reciprocating Saw

SOP · SOP-60276

  • Version 3

The Reciprocating Saw Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) sets out safe practices so workers are well informed and prepared to use a reciprocating saw effectively.

It covers the hazards (noise, electricity, moving parts, blades, hazardous dust, manual handling and poor housekeeping), the PPE to wear, operator training, the pre-operational inspection, maintenance under lockout/tagout, step-by-step operation and first aid for lacerations.

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