Cold Water Jetter - Safety Operation and Instructions

Safety starts before you start your machine! A pre-check inspection of the machine is critical. HotJetUSA® provides safety and maintenance checklists for your machine along with detailed start-up and shut-down procedures. SEWER JETTING SAFETY Sewer jetting is a serious business that can result in serious injury or death when proper safety precautions are not followed. Awareness of common jetting hazards, knowing how to protect oneself from them, and learning and practicing the proper safety procedures can greatly reduce the chances of disaster striking at unexpected moments. COMMON JETTING HAZARDS When water is pressurized to 4,000 PSI, it becomes a potentially deadly force that can easily result in serious injury when the water jet comes into contact with skin or eyes. The impact of a high pressure nozzle, leaky hose or being hit by contaminated waste can cause potentially life threatening injuries. When jetting is performed in confined spaces other OSHA rules for confined space entry and personal protective equipment must be followed. PERSONAL PROTECTION Proper dress is also important when performing high-pressure water jetting. Coveralls should be worn. A heavy duty raincoat should also be worn to keep technicians dry and to help provide a barrier in the event there is contact with debris flying from the pipe. Safety goggles should always be worn to protect the eyes from a high pressure jet of water. Water pressure above 2,000 PSI requires a full face shield, and at 4,000 PSI the water jet can literally tear an eyeball from its socket. http://www.hotjetusa.com Heavy duty, waterproof gloves are needed to protect the hands. Rubber boots with metatarsal guards are highly recommended. Hard hats are necessary in environments where falling objects are a potential hazard.
