Posted By Steven Mellor Must abrasive wheels have a raised head emergency stop if a switch is prominent and easily accessible?

Posted By Rob "Must have" isn't a requirement. It would be subject to your own assessment as possibly a hi-vis aid, and then you'd have to design the controls. Whats wrong with a local isolation switch, suitably marked up? Dont forget, an abrasive wheel wouldn't come to an immediate standstill on pushing an "E" Stop. Not unless you had a sufficient braking system as a control. Bob
