The Pneumatic Grinder Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) is a guide designed to help implement safe practices when using pneumatic grinders.
It covers the hazards (noise, electricity, air under pressure, moving parts and sparks), the PPE to wear, precautions and operator training, a pre-operational inspection, air compressor checks, operation, changing discs and maintenance with LOTO procedures.
A hazard checklist for powered non-mobile plant lets workers confirm that safety measures are in place before operation.
