Document Summary

This Safe Work Procedure outlines safety measures for operating and maintaining heat sealer welders. Only trained personnel may use the equipment, and electric tools must be connected to circuits protected by an RCD or safety switch. Pre-start checks include inspecting the casing, lead, and plug for damage, ensuring grips are securely fitted, and verifying smooth operation of controls. Faulty equipment must not be used.
