Foot controls should only be used where "Point of Operation" and "Pinch Point" guarding devices have been properly installed and are utilized so that it is IMPOSSIBLE for the operator's hands or fingers to remain within the point of operation during the machine cycle.

POINT OF OPERATION - The point or area of the machine or equipment where the work piece or material is actually positioned and work is being performed during any process such as cutting, shearing, punching, forming, welding, riveting, assembling, etc.

PINCH POINT - Any point at which it is possible for a portion of the body to be caught and injured between moving machine or equipment or work piece parts.

IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER to determine the suitability of a foot control for the user's intended use and to determine that the foot control chosen by the user and wiring up and installation of same will comply with all Federal, State and Local safety and health regulations and codes.

Due to the unlimited variety of business equipment, instruments, machines and vehicles on which our foot switches are used, the thousands of standards, and customers' varying interpretations of the standards covering these applications, it is impossible for LINEMASTER personnel to be experts on standards and requirements for all these products. We offer over 150 stock foot switch models and guards plus a large variety of specials which are made to customer specifications. We can advise you what is available in our foot switch line and you can examine models to see what meets your needs. We believe our customers' engineering departments should be the qualified experts in their own product field and know what specifications or details they may require in a foot switch for their equipment. If one of our stock models meets their needs, they can specify it, or possibly ask for a modification of a stock model if that is required.

SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR IF ANY OF THE ABOVE WARNING IS UNCLEAR, PLEASE CALL LINEMASTER SWITCH CORPORATION.

LINEMASTER SWITCH CORPORATION reserves the right to discontinue or change specifications, designs or materials, without notice consistent with sound engineering principles and modern practices.
