Belt Sanding Machines 29 CFR

Belt sanding machines used for woodworking must be provided with guards at each nip point where the sanding belt runs onto a pulley, and the unused run of the sanding belt must be shielded to prevent accidental contact. 

Hoist ropes on crawler, locomotive, and truck cranes must be free from kinks or twists and should be never wrapped around the load. 

U-bolts and rope clips used on hoist ropes for overhead and gantry cranes must be installed so that the U-bolt is in contact with the dead end (short or non-load-carrying end) of the rope. Rope clips must be installed in accordance with the manufecturer s recommendation. All nuts on newly installed clips must be tightened after one hour of use.
