Assembly
Check your safety shield against the diagrams in
Figure 1. The shield should slide up and down on
the bracket when a small amount of force is applied.
If the shield is too loose, it will not stay in the
retracted position (pulled up and towards the
operator). Tighten the shield to the bracket as
needed. Be careful not to overtighten and crack the
shield.
Installation and Use
1. Position the shield on top of the twin cutter,
aligning the threaded portion of the thumb screw
with the mounting hole on top of the cutter.
2. Turn the thumb screw to start the threads into
mounting hole. Hold the shield bracket in place
and tighten the thumb screw securely.
3. Gently push the shield down until it stops
against the bracket. This is the correct operating
postion.
4. To retract the shield for work changes on the
lathe, gently pull the shield up and towards you.
The shield and mounting hardware will slide up
to the top of the bracket and stop.

Protective eye and face equipment is required to be
used where there is a reasonable probability of
injury that can be prevented by the use of such
equipment. – OSHA 1910.133 (a)
This shield shall be used by the operator when
turning or grinding disc brake rotors, flywheels, or
any other machining operation in which the cutting

flying chips or particles.
In addition to this Chip Shield, protective goggles,
safety glasses, or a face shield must be provided by
the purchaser/user and worn by the operator of the
