Eye Glasses
Each day about 2000 workers have a job-related eye injury that requires medical treatment. About one third of the injuries are treated in hospital emergency departments and more than 100 of these injuries result in one or more days of lost work.
The majority of these injuries result from small particles or objects striking the eye.Slide3
Whenever we are in the shop students will have eye glasses on during the following procedures:Hammering
Grinding CuttingWelding
Using solventsWorking underneath a vehicle It is everyone in the shops responsibility to enforce these rules.
Eye Glass RulesSlide4
Eye Wash Station
The first 10 to 15 seconds after exposure to a hazardous substance, especially a corrosive substance, are critical. Delaying treatment, even for a few seconds, may cause serious injury.
Emergency eyewash stations provide on-the-spot decontamination. They allow workers to flush away hazardous substances that can cause injury. Slide5
Hearing Protection
when noise is too loud, it begins to kill the nerve's endings in the inner ear. As the exposure time to loud noise increases, more and more nerve endings are destroyed. As the number of nerve endings decreases, so does your hearing.
There is no way to restore life to dead nerve endings; the damage is permanent. Slide6
Horse-play
This will not be tolerate at all. Any student that acts unsafe in the shop will not be allowed to participate in practical work. I will assign text book work (yellow Book).Slide7
Parts Wash Tank
Wear protective gloves and safety glasses/goggles when operating the parts washer.Our skin is a sponge absorbing liquid especially if there is a break in the skin contaminates can get into your blood stream.Slide8
Battery Chargers
When batteries are being recharged, they generate hydrogen gas that is explosive in certain concentrations
Having adequate ventilation essential to prevent an explosion. Also, no flame, burning cigarette, or other source of ignition should be permitted in the area.
The two primary risks are from hydrogen gas formed when the battery is being charged and the sulfuric acid in the battery fluid. Slide9
Work Benches
When you are finished working on a bench clean it off and place your project away under the bench in a plastic container. This way parts from your project won’t get lost or accidently thrown out making assembly much easier. Slide10
Wheel Chocks
You know those little wedges you can use to keep your car's tire from rolling? They're called wheel chocks, and they could save your life. Wheel chocks must be used when ever you are working on a vehicle that is jacked up.Slide11
Safety Stands or (Jack Stands)
Jack stands are commonly used to provide extra stability for a jacked-up vehicleJack stands are slid under the vehicle's frame and axles after it has been lifted off the ground.
Properly using jack stands to support a vehicle you are working on can reduce the likelihood of the vehicle falling on youSlide12
lifting a vehicle
Before a vehicle is lifted up in the air Mr. Olinyk must have a look at the set-up.Once it is lifted I will advise you were to place the jack stands.Slide13
Air Hoses
The air lines used in the repair area must be used with great care. The air pressure should never be used to clean off the bench tops
Never use air pressure to clean dust off of clothing, if the end of the air piece came into close contact to the skin air could enter the blood stream causing heart failure.
When you are finished with the air line roll it up and hang it back up on the hook. Slide14
Using Wrenches
Always pull on a wrench towards you, never push on a wrench.
If the fastener breaks or the wrench slips the result will be skinned up knuckles.
If more leverage is needed us a longer wrench or a Johnson Bar / Breaker Bar.Slide15
Emergency Power Button
The power shut off buttons are located throughout the classroom.
These buttons are labeled
Once the power is shut-off only a key can turn it back on.Slide16
Fire Safety Can
It is used for disposal of fabric soaked with solvents, thinners, and other flammable
liquidsThe
self-closing lid opens no more than 60 degrees and closes tightly to restrict oxygen flow inside the can, helping to prevent spontaneous combustion of flammable waste.
The can's round shape and ventilated elevated bottom allows air to circulate around the can to disperse heat.Slide17
Fire Blanket
Larger fire blankets, for use in
shop
and industrial situations, are often made of
wool
(sometimes treated with a flame retardant fluid). These blankets are usually mounted in vertical quick-release container so that they can be easily pulled out and wrapped round a person whose clothes are on fire
.Slide18
Exhaust Ventilation Switch
Before a vehicle is started in the shop there must be an exhaust hose placed over the tailpipe.This prevents a build up of Carbon Monoxide in the shop.Slide19
Shop Bay Doors
Shop bay doors should be all the way up or all the way down.Slide20
Shop Tools & Clean-up
During the repair process tools and equipment are removed from the tool crib or tool boxes. When the repair is finished all of these tools and equipment must be returned to their correct position.The repair area will be left in a clean state when you are finished; this includes throwing out garbage and sweeping up the floor.Slide21
Welding Equipment
The shop welding equipment must be respected. If you are not properly trained on how to use it don’t touch it! The operator of the shop welding equipment must clearly understand all of the operating procedures and safety rules before attempting to weld, cut or heat-up material.Slide22
The Fire Triangle
To produce fire 3 things must be present at the same time. If any one of the three is missing, a fire cannot be started or, with the removal of any one, the fire will be extinguished.
The removal of heat or the cooling of a fire is the most common form of suppression. In most cases water is used to essentially soak up the heat generated by the fire. Slide23
Types of Fire Extinguishers
There are four basic types of fire extinguishers:
Class A - Ordinary Combustibles (Wood, cloth or paper)
Class B - Flammable Liquids
(Gasoline or oil)
Class C - Energized Electrical Equipment
(Wiring, fuse boxes, breakers, or appliances)
Class D - Flammable Metals
(Magnesium or potassium)
Each class also has its own picture displayed right on the extinguisher.Slide24
How Fire Extinguishers Work
Water extinguishers, which are the most common, are essentially tanks full of
water
with compressed (tightly squeezed) air as the propellant to make them come out. Water extinguishers work by removing heat from the fire.
A gauge is used to indicate the state of the fire extinguisherSlide25
Dry Chemical
Extiinguishers
Dry chemical extinguishers are tanks of foam or dry powder with compressed nitrogen as the propellant. They work by smothering the fire: when you put a layer of powder or foam on the fire, you cut the fuel off from the oxygen around it, and the fire goes out.Slide26
Carbon dioxide (CO2) Extinguishers
Contain a mixture of liquid and gaseous carbon dioxide (a nonflammable gas)
It has to be stored under high pressure to make it a liquid. When you release the pressure, the gas expands enormously and cools to make a huge white jet.
CO2 attacks the fire triangle in two ways: it smothers the oxygen and, because it's so cold, it also removes heat.Slide27
How to use a Fire Extinguisher
Remember to always use the manufacturer's instructions when using a fire extinguisher.
Always remember PASS ,

weepKeep a safe distance from you and the fire.Hold the extinguisher by its handle in an upright position.Pull the safety pin or lever to unlock the extinguisher.Aim the extinguisher at the base of the fire.Squeeze the handle fully.Sweep from side to side.Slide28
Fire fighting Techniques
Start at the front of the fire; work your way to the back.
Always back away,
never
turn your back on the fire.
Aim the extinguisher at the base of the fire.
Why do we do this?Slide29
Students Who can’t follow Rules
Students who can’t follow these rules will not be allowed to participate in practical work. Those student who choose to break the safety rules, will be assigned seat work instead of practical.
