1910.212(a)(1) Types of guarding1910.212(a)(1) Types of guarding
• One or more methods of machine guarding shall be provided to protect the operator and other employees in the machine area from hazards such as those created by:
– Point of operation,
– Ingoing nip points,
– Rotating parts,
– Flying chips and sparks
![Page 5: Machine Guarding](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813545550346895d9ca48e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Standard Interpretations Standard Interpretations Machine-guarding requirementsMachine-guarding requirements
• This standard requires that machine guards be provided to protect employees (e.g., points of operation, ingoing nip points), but does not specify the type of machine guard. The standard recommends several types of machine guards, including barriers, tripping devices, and electronic safety devices, but leaves to the employer the decision regarding which machine guard best suits the working conditions.
![Page 6: Machine Guarding](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813545550346895d9ca48e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Standard Interpretations Standard Interpretations Machine-guarding requirementsMachine-guarding requirements
• By not specifying the types of guards this standard is referred to as a "performance" standard (i.e., the employer is free to adopt a guard that "performs" or meets the objective of protecting employees from the hazards).
• If OSHA had specified the types of machine guards that must be used, the standard would be a "specification" standard.

1910.212(a)(2) General 1910.212(a)(2) General requirements for machine guardsrequirements for machine guards • Guards shall be affixed to the machine where
possible and secured elsewhere if attachment to the machine is not possible
The guard shall be such that it does not offer an accident hazard in itself
![Page 8: Machine Guarding](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813545550346895d9ca48e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1910.212(a)(3) Point of Operation1910.212(a)(3) Point of Operation
• (ii)The point of operation of machines whose operation exposes an employee to injury, shall be guarded
(i)Point of operation is the area on a machine where work is actually performed upon the material being processed
![Page 9: Machine Guarding](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813545550346895d9ca48e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
1910.212(a)(3) Point of Operation1910.212(a)(3) Point of Operation
• (ii)The guarding device shall be in conformity
with any appropriate standards therefor, or, in
the absence of applicable specific standards,
shall be so designed and constructed as to
prevent the operator from having any part of
his body in the danger zone during the
operating cycle
![Page 10: Machine Guarding](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813545550346895d9ca48e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
1910.212(a)(3)(iii) Hand Tools1910.212(a)(3)(iii) Hand Tools
• Special hand tools for
placing and removing
material shall be such as to
permit easy handling of
material without the
operator placing a hand in
the danger zone*
*Such tools shall not be in lieu of other guarding, but
can only be used to supplement protection
provided.

Standard Interpretations Standard Interpretations Interlock requirements for centrifuges Interlock requirements for centrifuges
• Centrifuges are not specifically mentioned in the machine-guarding regulations and are not covered by the particular provision at 1910.212(a)(4), the general provision at 1910.212(a)(1) does cover hazards created by rotating parts or the point of operation.
• Accordingly, centrifuges that present such hazards must comply with the provisions of .212(a)(1), (a)(2), and (a)(3).

DefinitionsDefinitions• "Press" - Mechanically powered machine that shears, punches,
forms or assembles metal or other material by means of cutting, shaping, or combination dies attached to slides.
• A press consists of a stationary bed or anvil, and a slide (or slides) having a controlled reciprocating motion toward the bed surface, the slide guided in a definite path by the frame of the press.
