(1) Keep all guards in place when the machine is in operation.
(2) Only persons required for instruction or machine operation may ride on equipment, unless a passenger seat or other protective device is provided.
(3) Stop engine, disconnect the power source, and wait for all machine movement to stop before servicing, adjusting, cleaning, or unclogging the equipment.

When the machine must be running to be properly serviced or maintained, the employer must instruct employees in the steps and procedures necessary to safely service or maintain the equipment.
(4) Make sure everyone is clear of machinery before starting the engine, engaging power, or operating the machine.
