are permanently attached to the machine or tool, don’t have any moving parts, and can’t be moved while the machine is in use.

like fixed guards, are permanent, but they can be adjusted to allow the machine to handle different sizes of material.

serve the same purpose as adjustable guards, but automatically adapt to the size of the material

also known as barrier guards, automatically shut off or disengage the power source when the guard is open or removed.

Also known as the railing of the safeguard

shall be of the type in which the wires are securely fastened at every cross point by welding or galvanizing or soldering except in the case of diamond or square wire mesh made of wire 2 mm. (0.08 in.) in diameter, 20 mm. (3/4 in) mesh or heavier.

Except as provided for specific installation, the minimum height of guards shall be 1.00 meter from the upper surface of the top rail to the floor or platform level.

are commonly used in gardening and landscaping to define pathways, create raised beds, or protect plants from being trampled.

are protective barriers typically installed along open edges, balconies, staircases, and elevated platforms to prevent falls. While metal is often used for guardrails, wooden guardrails are also utilized, especially in specific construction settings.

are short barriers attached to the bottom of guardrails or scaffold platforms. They help prevent tools, equipment, or materials from falling off elevated surfaces and add an additional layer of protection against falling hazards

are used to cordon off restricted areas or hazardous zones on construction sites. They serve as a visual and physical deterrent to keep workers and others away from potential dangers

may be used to secure the perimeter and control access. This helps prevent unauthorized entry and protects both workers and the public from potential hazards within the construction area.

Wooden guards may be integrated into scaffolding systems to create a secure working platform. These guards are essential for preventing falls from elevated work areas.

are safety components that protect workers from excess shards, shavings, material chips, and tool bits that may fly away from working machinery and injure them.

protect plant operating personnel from contaminants, moving parts, flying debris, and noise caused by drill presses.

is permanently joined to the tool or machine, has no moving parts, and can’t be moved while the machine is under operation.

These guards are also known as a barrier guard. It permits safe access to the machinery’s guarded parts without requiring total disassembly.

are three or two-sided covers that enclose dangerous milling machinery.

These are barriers that move or self-adjust, according to the size or position of the workplace.

an engine or motor operated by steam, gas, air, electricity, liquid or gaseous fuel, liquids in motion or other forms of energy and whose main function is to drive or operate, either directly or indirectly, other mechanical equipment.

. Revolving collars and couplings shall be cylindrical and no screws or bolts project beyond the largest periphery. Couplings shall be enclosed by stationary guards.

Used for making straight cuts in wood. Is a circular blade machine, usually of the radial design, used for cutting stock across and above the stock

Ideal for curved or irregular cuts. The saw shall be provided with an anti-kick-back device to prevent the stock from being thrown back towards the operator.

is used to machine wood parallel and to consistent thickness. Cutting knives shall be completely enclosed, templates, jigs or fixtures which will enable the part to be processed without exposing the operator’s hand to the danger zone he shall use.

Ensures flat surfaces on wood by removing twists and warps. A suitable guard which will automatically adjust itself to cover the portion of the cutting head exposed during the planning operations shall be used.

Belt sanders shall have both pulleys and the unused run of the sanding belt enclosed. Rim guards will be acceptable for pulleys with smooth disc wheels provided that on-running nip points are guarded.

is a versatile machine that has many uses in the woodworking shop.
