the driver must be rendered inoperative
Shut down and lock out/tag out the driver (motor/prime mover) before working on or changing the driven equipment. This prevents accidental startup and damage (e.g., dead‑heading a pump, belt/shaft damage) while you adjust valves, remove belts, or perform maintenance.
