            WORK SITE ASSESSMENT 

 
Examine the work area for any conditions or obstructions that may inhibit operation or create a safety 
hazard for the operator or others. Use the information in this manual combined with good judgment 
to identify any hazards to avoid.   
 
In addition to calling to DETERMINE LOCATION OF UNDERGROUND UTILITIES (see previous 
section for details) the operator and/or job foreman should visually inspect the work site. Look for 
electrical drop boxes; notices of underground placements; manhole covers; recent trenching activity; 
any evidence of possible underground placements; banks; overhangs; drop-offs; rocks; tree limbs; 
wire; uneven terrain; any existing trenches or holes; and toxic ground conditions. 
 
Only operate trencher outdoors and do not breathe engine exhaust and fumes.  

WARNING

: Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide gas that is toxic. Breathing it can 

cause unconsciousness and death.   

 
Do not operate trencher near any source of flammable dust or vapors. 

WARNING

: Sparks from the engine exhaust can cause an explosion or fire in a flammable or 

explosive atmosphere. Fuel fumes can catch fire or explode. 

 
Allow adequate side and overhead clearances between trencher and any objects such as buildings, 
fences, and trees. 
 
Adequate lighting is required, daylight or artificial, for safe operation of the trencher. 
 
Keep others away. If the job site is near a road or pedestrian path, warn and divert both motorized 
traffic and pedestrians. As appropriate, erect barriers, use traffic flag personnel, signs, cones, and 
lighting devices to insure safety.
