|Subject: Mechanical Power Presses (Part 24. of the General Industry Safety Standards) |
|Topic: Inspection and Maintenance Records (R 408.12412 of Part 24) |
|Question: “Is there a specific form required for machine maintenance (Part 24. R408.12412)? While I understand that machines/presses vary, this field seems |
|pretty wide open without specific requirements.” |
|Answer: I believe you are asking about power press inspections as indicated by the rule (R 408.12412) you identified in your question. Although a specific form |
|is not required, Part 24. does have two paperwork requirements. |
| |
|Rule 2412(1) requires employers to establish and follow a program of at least semiannual inspections of power presses to ensure that all their parts, auxiliary |
|equipment, and safeguards are in safe operating condition and adjustment. Employers must maintain a certification record of inspections that includes the date of |
|inspection, the signature of the person who performed the inspection, and the serial number, or other identifier, of the power press that was inspected. |
| |
|Rule 2412(2) requires employers to inspect and test each press no less than weekly to determine the condition of the clutch/brake mechanism, anti-repeat feature, |
|and single-stroke mechanism. Employers must perform and complete necessary maintenance or repair or both before the press is operated. In addition, employers |
|must maintain a record of inspections, tests, and maintenance work. The record must include the date of the date of the inspection, test, or maintenance; the |
|signature of the person who performed the inspection; and the serial number, or other identifier, of the press that was inspected, tested, or maintained. |
| |
|The certification records required in Part 24. are necessary to ensure compliance with the requirement to inspect mechanical power presses. The inspection of |
|mechanical power presses is critical to ensuring that employers maintain the presses in safe operating condition for employees. These records also provide the |
|most efficient means for the compliance officers to determine that an employer is complying with Part 24. |

|press operators may be exposed. |
