NOTICE TO USER
Our mission is to “Improve Industrial Safety, Security
and Productivity Worldwide Through Quality and
Innovation.”
Thank you for purchasing the VERTIGUARD™ pneumatic
vertical sliding panel by RITE-HITE® MACHINE
GUARDING.
The solid panel is designed to provide an automatic hard
guard between personnel and a hazardous operation.
Our standard panels will eliminate weld flash and create a
solid barrier to protect against flying debris and personnel
entry into your guarded machine areas. The panel is
intended to open and close in a vertical position to
provide safety to work areas.
The information contained in this manual will allow you to
operate and maintain the unit in a manner which will
insure maximum life and trouble free operation. This
manual should be thoroughly read and understood,
before operating or servicing this unit.
The actual parts used on your unit may be different than

product improvement.
If any procedures for the installation, operation or
maintenance of the VertiGuard have been left out of this
manual or are not understood, contact Technical Support

SITE EVALUATION
The VertiGuard can be installed either as an In-Jamb,
Face, free standing unit or mounted to a machine
structure in a machining, welding or other type of
environment:
Please verify before starting installation:
1. Can the VertiGuard assembly be mounted to the
workstation?
2. If anchoring to the floor is there anything buried in
the floor where the anchors go?
3. Does the installation allow adequate clearance for
robotic machining, welding or other types of
operation?
4. Can electrical power to the workstation be shut off
without interfering with other plant operations?
5. Is there an air supply connection available at the
installation site?
PARTS INVENTORY
