Lock and Tag: Lockout/Tagout Refresher

Workers who repair circuits, clean and oil machinery, clean jammed mechanisms, and rebuild equipment are at risk of injury if power is restored to equipment while being serviced. OSHA's Lock-Out/Tag-Out regulations 29 CFR 1910.147 requires the use of locks and tags to isolate machinery from its energy source while being serviced. This video is a refresher course for workers previously trained in using lock-out/tag-out to prevent accidents and injuries.

This course reviews the lock-out and tag-out devices available when working with electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic energy. Padlocks, chains, and valve clamps are the most common lock outs. Wedges, key blocks, and pins are often used with hydraulic or pneumatic systems. Tags warn others work is being done on equipment or machinery. Viewers are taken through the steps for using lock-outs/tag-out procedures. These include identifying all energy sources, attaching lock-out/tag-out devices, and testing machinery after locks and tags have been put on.

Use this refresher training to remind employees of the importance of lock-out/tag-out procedures and how they should be used to prevent serious on-the-job injuries.
