FACTORIES ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1965 - SECT 15

Other machinery.

15.(1) Every dangerous part of any machinery, other than prime movers and
transmission machinery, shall be securely fenced unless it is in such a
position or of such construction as to be as safe to every person employed or
working on the premises as it would be if securely fenced.

(2) In so far as the safety of a dangerous part of any machinery cannot by
reason of the nature of the operation be secured by means of a fixed guard,
the requirements of subsection (1) shall be deemed to have been complied with
if a device is provided which automatically prevents the operator from coming
into contact with that part.

Subs.(3)(4) rep. by SR 1979/246

(5) Any part of a stock-bar which projects beyond the head-stock of a lathe

every person employed or working on the premises as it would be if securely
fenced.
