Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Safety in the Machine Shop The present booklet is based upon a series of articles that have appeared from time to time in the travelers standard, but the original matter has been extensively revised, and additions have also been freely made wherever they appeared to be desirable. No attempt has been made to cover all the hazards that occur in the machine shop, but special attention has been paid to those which are responsible for the major part of the serious accidents that occur. The advice that is given in connection with certain specific machines should be considered applicable to all other machines in which like sources of danger occur. The principles relating to the guarding of gears on lathes apply equally well, for example, to the guarding of similar gears on machines of other kinds.
