Document Summary

This Safe Work Procedure outlines the safe operation, setup, and maintenance of pin welding machines. Only trained and authorized personnel are permitted to operate the machine, and all manufacturer instructions must be followed. Pre-start checks include ensuring the machine is connected to a circuit with a safety switch, inspecting electrical leads and switches for damage, and verifying that an electrical test tag is current. The work area must be dry, well-ventilated, and free of debris.

Operational guidelines require selecting the correct current for the metal thickness, performing test welds on scrap material, and keeping hands clear of moving parts and welding zones. Full body protective clothing is mandatory for extended use, along with a face shield, gloves, and proper manual handling practices. Assistance must be provided for handling heavy or awkward materials. Adhering to these protocols ensures safe and efficient pin welding operations.
