Machine guard
A guard system is installed to protect the operator while maintaining proper visibility of the work area. The
guard system consists of two parts:
An upper guard that opens vertically to provide access to load a terminal and wire or cable into the
crimping area
A lower guard that pivots open to allow access to change the tooling holder or applicator
The Guard Control push button opens or closes the upper guard (Figure 5). A safety interlock switch on the
lower guard and a safety interlock actuator on the upper guard prevent machine operation if the guard door is
open.
