J. General Inspection Procedures.

*   *   *

21. Chipping. The CSHO shall determine whether the following requirements are met:

a) Chipper access covers or doors are not to be opened until the drum or disc is at a complete stop.

b) The chipper is shut down and locked out in accordance with the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.147 when an employee performs servicing or maintenance. 1910.147(c)(4)(i) requires the use of a documented lockout procedure and 1910.147(c)(7)(i) requires the training of employees. Unlike 1910.147, however, this standard does not allow the use of tags.

c) Detached trailer chippers are chocked during usage on any slope where rolling and sliding of the chipper is reasonably foreseeable.
