Health, Safety & Environmental Bulletin No 209
S Martin - 23 September 2010
Fuel Bowser Pressure Valve
Please see enclosed self explanatory alert from Coteba.
This incident highlights the need to always get instruction / training for the plant you are
using. When receiving hired plant on site, always ensure the documentation and
instructions are with the plant; and read them before you allow anybody to use it. If you
have any problems with the documentation (e.g. test certificate is out of date, or you
don’t understand operating instructions) contact your supervisor immediately.
Do not operate any plant for which you have not received training for – contact your
supervisor if you need training.

About Risk
Risk management is a big step towards accident prevention; however, it is dependent on the risk firstly
being identified, then controlled. We need safety awareness to be instinctive and form an integral part
of both our working and home lives; it is this, in turn, that may save the lives of others. Remember: if
shared, risks can be mitigated before they pose a threat.
If you have any queries regarding the Safety Bulletin content or require further information please
contact any staff member of Xmo Strata Ltd.
