Concrete Saw Work Safety Notes

Before Using Concrete Saws:

Ensure:  

• Markings are exact on the work area.
• The Blade is free from cracks and is in working condition.
• There is no electrical cables in the area of the cut.
• There is sufficient lighting to complete the cut safely.
  
  

Concrete Saw General Safety Continued:  

• Use coolant/water to suppress dust at the point of generation. Failure to use coolant/water could create high levels of airborne dust that contains crystalline silica in concentrations considered to be a significant health hazard.
• When cutting through floors or walls ensure the area behind the cut is barricaded to prevent persons entering that area.
• Use work practices that minimize kick backs when using portable hand held saws.

When Using Hand Held Saws Ensure:

• The Saw is only used at or below shoulder height
• Saws are only used with blade rotating in the opposite direction to the cut
• The Saw not used for inverted sawing.
