Mechanism

**Willard has completed his service of Wilma's machine. What is the final step he must take before restoring energy? - Notify Wilma the service is complete - Remove his lock - Clear away his tools - Test the machine

Tagout systems tend to have all these limitations EXCEPT: - They require less training in order to implement - They are only warning devices affixed to energy isolating devices - They do not provide a physical restraint on energy isolating devices - They often evoke a false sense of security

They require less training in order to implement

What is the purpose of the energy control program? - To ensure that machines are isolate from energy sources before servicing - To ensure that machines at a worksite operate as efficiently as possible - To monitor employee efficiency in operating and maintaining machinery - To instruct all employees on safe and efficient energy conservation methods
