SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
**WARNING**
1. All employees must be thoroughly trained in safe operation and standard maintenance
practices. All employees must review this entire manual monthly.
2. Do not enter the wash tunnel when the equipment is operating. Death or dismemberment
may occur.
3. Do not wear loose fitting clothing or jewelry around moving equipment. Do not allow any
part of your body or other objects (including ladders, hoses, or tools) to come in contact
with moving equipment. Entanglement may result causing death or dismemberment.
4. Do not leave a ladder or any other items such as wash down hoses or tools in the wash
tunnel while equipment is running. Vehicle damage and injury, including death, can
occur.
5. Always exercise caution when walking (never run) through the wash tunnel as there may
be slippery conditions. Be careful so you do not bump into or trip over equipment.
6. Only those employees specifically instructed and trained by the location management are
permitted to enter the wash tunnel to perform inspections or maintenance. At least two
qualified maintenance people must be present when performing equipment repairs or
preventive maintenance.
7. Do not perform any maintenance or work on equipment unless you first perform Lock-Out
Safety Precautions. All electrically powered equipment must have manually operated
disconnects capable of being locked in the “OFF” position. Equipment that has been
“locked out” for any reason must be restarted only by the person who performed the “lock
out” operation.
8. When working on any equipment that is higher than your shoulders, always use a
fiberglass ladder that is in good condition.
9. Do not attempt to repair or adjust any pressurized liquid or pneumatic part, hose, pipe or
fitting while that equipment is in operation.
10.Electrical connections and repairs must be performed by a Licensed Electrician Only.
11.Emergency “STOP” buttons must be well marked and their location and proper use
reviewed with all personnel. Any activated “STOP” button must be reset only by the
person who activated it. Clear the wash tunnel of any people, ladders, hoses, tools, and
other loose items before restarting the equipment. An audible device must sound to warn
people that the equipment is starting.
