belt guards

Recommended Posts

Well yesterday our Workers Comp coverage carrier came for a little inspection and after thirty years, feels we need to have belt guards on all our sewing machines. Are these available somewhere or am I going to have to make them?

His main concern is where the belt comes onto the hand wheel in back. I think I've seen little small guards for that on a machine before, but how was it attatched? Drill and tap the casting?

Many thanks for any leads,

Kevin

OK,

I think I have found the solution, Southstar Supplies says he has 5 of the 8 guards I need and is calling around to see if he can find the other 3. They are cheap (7.50 each) and plastic, so you can easily modify them for your exact application.

Now I just have to find a way to cover the belts on an old Landis line finisher.
