The last incident took place in September of 2007 when the claimant did not lock down a machine prior to repairing it. The claimant agrees that he did not lock it down but he did unplug the machine. The claimant in his notice of appeal stated: «I felt that since I had shut off the power that was okay. I forgot lock-out procedure». In May, a three day suspension for lockout violation, and then in August a termination for lockout violation. The appeal of the claimant dismissed.
