Look Inside the Book

Every page has one big drawing and a box with the numbers, rules and steps you need to know:

Nip points: rollers, belt + pulley, chain + sprocket, rack + pinion (OSHA eTool).

The Problem Isn't You. It's How It Was Explained to You.

You're at a conveyor with a worker's arm caught at the pulley. Someone already hit the red E-stop. The line is quiet, and everyone is looking at you.

Is it safe to put your hands in there? You read about it, but the manual covers it in paragraphs: control circuits, energy-isolating devices, definitions. Under pressure, paragraphs don't come back.

E-stop vs. disconnect: why OSHA says control buttons don't isolate energy.

In the book, electrical isolation is one page. On one side, the E-stop: a control button. On the other, the disconnect with your lock on it. One drawing shows why the button doesn't isolate the energy.

The rest works the same way. The in-running nip point, the OSHA lockout sequence, the box crib, stacked air bags, augers: each one has its own page.

So you walk past the E-stop, find the disconnect, lock it and try it out. You understand it and you do it without going back to the manual.

COMPARE FOR YOURSELF

The Same Topic, Two Ways to Study It

THIS
  • The manual: line after line
  • Lockout steps explained only in words
  • You walk into the skills test unsure
Prior to the commencement of servicing or rescue operations, the authorized employee shall possess knowledge of the type and magnitude of the energy to be controlled, the hazards thereof and the methods or means of control. Affected employees shall be notified. The machine shall be shut down by the established procedure, after which all energy-isolating devices shall be located and operated so as to isolate the machine from its energy sources. Lockout or tagout devices shall then be affixed, stored or residual energy relieved or restrained, and isolation verified prior to work.
FOR THIS
  • The lockout sequence in one drawing
  • The steps in a numbered box
  • You see it and you get it
Prepare, notify, shut down, isolate, lock and tag, release, verify: 1910.147(c)(9) and (d) in order.

One Page, One Topic, All Clear

Think of it this way:

You're at the skills station. The evaluator points at a hydraulic press with the platen down on a mannequin's hand and asks what you do before anyone touches it.

In the book you open the page on gravity and springs: the raised platen, the block under it and the cylinder bled down, all in one drawing.

Larger bag bottom, inflate it first, capacity of the smaller bag

Same with the in-running nip point, the box crib, stacked air bags, augers and PTO shafts: each one on its own page.

Machinery Rescue Illustrated is 8 parts and 65 illustrated pages, and at the end, the 6 steps on one page, the lockout and cribbing checklists and what the evaluator watches.

What you see drawn, you don't have to memorize.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it for me if I already do vehicle extrication and now need Machinery Rescue Technician?

Yes. It starts from what changes when the trap is a machine and not a car, and follows the 6 steps from size-up to patient removal. It assumes you already work rescue; it doesn't start from zero.

Where does the content come from?

It's checked against the current edition of NFPA 1006 (Machinery Rescue Level I and II) and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 and 1910.212, the standard that Pro Board and IFSAC accredited state programs certify to. Your state's skill sheets and your department's procedures come first: always confirm numbers against your edition and against them.

Is this official material?

No. It's an independent illustrated study guide. It's not published or endorsed by NFPA, OSHA, Pro Board, IFSAC or any state fire training agency, and it doesn't reproduce the text of the standard. It doesn't give you a certificate or CE hours: your certification comes from your state's exam and skills test.

Does it replace my machinery rescue course?

No. It doesn't replace the course, hands-on drills, your department's protocols or medical direction. What it adds to the standard and your course manual: each topic on one drawn page, with its numbers and steps in a box, in the order you work the call, from size-up to removal. Quick to review after a shift and easy to print for the station.

Are the practice questions the ones on the exam?

No. They're written for this book, in exam style, to help you find your weak spots. They're not official questions from any exam.

When and how do I get it?

The book and the 2 bonus books arrive as PDFs by email, at the address you enter at checkout.

Do I have to pay every month?

No. It's a one-time payment. No subscription.

Can I have it on paper?

Yes. The PDF is made to print, at home or at a print shop, so you can keep it at the station.

How does the refund work?

You have 30 days. We refund everything if the file won't open, if the book isn't what you see on this page, if you were charged twice or if the email doesn't arrive: just email us.

Before You Close This Page

No more rereading the JPRs and remembering none of it.
