Training Objectives

Execute mandatory notification protocols for affected employees prior to LOTO

Assess energy type, magnitude, and specific hazards before initiating shutdown

Course Overview

"Lock it, Tag it, Try it." The life you save will likely be your own.

As an authorized employee, you are the last line of defense against a machine that doesn't know you are there. This training short guides you through the rigorous preparation phase required before you even touch a wrench. We start with the often-missed first step: Notification. Do you know exactly who needs to be warned before you kill the power?

We then move to the hidden killers: Stored Energy. Turning the switch off isn't enough if a spring is under tension or a hydraulic line is pressurized. We teach you how to bleed, block, and vent these hazards safely. Finally, we cover the most critical step of all, Verification. Watch this video to master the protocol that confirms the machine is truly dead so you can work safely.

No Worries. Here's Some Helpful Info.

Affected employees must be notified to prevent possible risks and allow them to clear potentially hazardous areas.
The authorized employee should be especially mindful of the energy that can be stored or accumulated after a shutdown.
The authorized employee or team leader will check that the device is correctly engaged and is completely de-energizing the equipment and isolating it from energy sources.
All potentially hazardous stored or residual energy must be relieved, disconnected, restrained, and otherwise rendered safe, which includes activities like discharging capacitors or venting fluids.
The authorized employee will verify that the machinery or equipment is actually isolated and de-energized before starting work on locked-out or tagged-out equipment.
