Document Summary

This Safe Work Procedure outlines the operation and maintenance of pallet wrappers. Only authorized personnel trained in safe use may operate the equipment, following manufacturer instructions. Pre-use checks require ensuring the workspace is clear, verifying all controls (including emergency stops) are functional, and confirming the condition of the wrapping film.

Operational precautions emphasize loading pallets centrally, securing the plastic film to the pallet base, and keeping hands clear of moving parts during operation. Gloves should be used when handling rough materials but avoided when near moving parts due to entanglement risks. After wrapping, the film must be cut and secured to prevent unravelling during transport. Manual handling procedures must be followed when replacing film spools, and the machine must be isolated at the main switch during maintenance. Adherence to these guidelines ensures safe and efficient use of pallet wrapping machines.
