WAC 296-806-42076. Provide clearances and warnings for carts on towed conveyors

(1) You must provide clearance space for personnel in all of the following: (a) Between the sides of carts. (b) Between any load overhanging the side of a cart. (c) Any fixed or moving object. (2) You must identify the cart path with floor stripes that are: (a) Parallel to the cart path. (b) Arranged so one line is on each side of the path. (c) Located a safe distance from the edge of the cart or overhanging load. (3) You must mark reduced clearance areas with appropriate warning signs. Note: An example of a reduced clearance area is an area where a cart goes through a wall opening. (4) You must place an appropriate warning on those areas where a cart may unexpectedly change direction, such as switching off the main line into a transfer conveyor or a spur. Note: An example of an appropriate warning would be to use diagonal stripes on the floor between clearance lines. (5) You must install a sign, signal, or other warning where carts start automatically.
