    When preparing/working on a machine, TURN IT OFF. IT IS LITERALLY THE FIRST STEP WHEN REPAIR ANY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT YOU STUPID PIECE OF SHIT.

      Sometimes this isn’t possible if the machine needs to stay up to temp, like with plastic injection molders. In those cases, the operation can usually be stopped by a padlock placed somewhere on the controls. There’s usually training about it for everyone involved to make sure they know what’s up.

        And if there’re multiple people involved each one should have their own pad lock placed on the controls.
