SOP 018 Pipe Bender

In the case of a pipe bender, a safe operating procedure is necessary because of the potential hazards associated with its use. These hazards include pinch points, sharp edges, and manual handling. The procedure provides instructions on the use of the equipment both prior to and during operation, ensures workers recognize and manage associated hazards and risks involved, and provides a training document for workers.

A safe operating procedure document for a pipe bender can be purchased to ensure that the procedure is up-to-date and meets the latest safety standards. The document will provide detailed instructions on how to safely perform the procedure, including pre-lockout checks, isolation procedures, and post-lockout checks. It will also provide information on the types of locks and tags to be used, as well as the training requirements for personnel involved in the procedure.
