Safeguard the point of operation.
You must protect employees from point-of-operation hazards by using properly installed, adjusted, and maintained guards or devices.
EXEMPTION: | This requirement does not apply if the point-of-operation opening is one-fourth inch or less, before use. |
Note: | 1. You may use a combination of guards and devices as long as employees are completely protected from point-of-operation hazards. |
2. Hand tools used for placing materials into the press, or removing them from the press, are not a substitute for point-of-operation guards or devices. |
