(a) All moving
						parts of belt and pulley drives located 7 feet or less above the floor or
						working level shall be guarded.
NOTE: For clearance between guards and belts, see Table
						  G-1 and Figure G-2.
EXCEPTIONS:
1.
						Flat or crowned step-cone pulley drives on lathes may be guarded by a bar or
						rod located above the contact point of the belt to prevent a worker's hand
						being drawn into the nip point. Lathe belts, with metallic belt fasteners or
						lacings, and which are shifted by hand, shall have all fasteners or lacings
						clinched or maintained so that there are no projections on either the surfaces
						or edges of the belt.
2. The
						following belts when operating at 250 feet per minute or less: Flat belts
						1-inch or less in width; flat belts 2 inches or less in width which are free
						from metal lacings or fasteners; round belts ½ -inch or less in
						diameter; and single strand V-belts, the width of which is 
						13/32 -inch
						or less. This exception does not include spokes, hazardous nip points, or other
						hazards of pulleys. Such hazards which are 7 feet or less above the floor or
						working level shall be guarded by nip-point belt and pulley guards.
3. In industries where there is an excessive
						deposit of lint (which constitutes a serious fire hazard), open bottom
						nip-point belt and pulley guards may be used, provided that where metallic belt
						fasteners or lacings are used they shall be clinched and maintained so that
						there are no projections on the outside face or edges of the belt.
4. Fan belt drives on motor vehicles used
						primarily for transportation of employees and materials.
5. Internal combustion engine fan belt drives
						guarded by side screens extending to the shoulder of the engine
						block.

Point of Operation Guarding Figure

Click

Explanation of Above Diagram:
This diagram shows the accepted safe openings between
						  the bottom edge of a guard and feed table at various distances from the point
						  of operation.
The minimum guarding line is ½ -inch from the
						  point of operation. The various openings are such that with average size hands,
						  an operator's fingers will not reach the point of operation.
After installation of point of operation guards and
						  before a job is released for operation, a check should be made to verify that
						  the guard will prevent the operator's hands from reaching the point of
						  operation.

(c) The prime mover shall be
						equipped with an effective brake and there shall be installed across the front
						of the rolls at approximately knee height a control bar, lever or other device
						which when actuated will stop the motor and apply the brake.
NOTE:
(1) The
						intent of this section is primarily to achieve point of operation guarding as
						required by Subsection (a) above. Where, because of work procedures or other
						valid reasons, the requirements of Subsection (a) cannot be achieved, the
