Posted By Ron Hunter Not an expert in this area, but by chance I've just been looking at a machine in our own print shop. I was extremely concerned at hand feeding of books and lack of effective guarding etc. The machine is old, and some attempts have been made to introduce fixed guards (not very effective). I've asked our Print Manager to consider using jigs to hold books together and to operate some sort of push-stick system to keep hands away. Consider this machine and its operation against PUWER principles and your conclusion might well be STOP NOW!
