Conair SC-5 - Manual (Page 8)

In order to protect the operator from possible harm from the
rotating blade wheel, several safety features are built into this
cutter. They include:
Two electric switches make a contact between the side
and the clear polycarbonate sliding blade observation
windows such that the windows MUST BE CLOSED
in order to enable the blade wheel to spin.
● ● This prevents someone from opening the windows and
having the blade wheel spin which can cause serious
injury. Tampering with this safety feature will VOID
ANY responsibility for safety.
A proximity switch is positioned on both the upstream
and downstream side of the bushing holder. If there
are no bushings in either side, the blade will not spin.
● ● This prevents someone from inserting their hands or
fingers in the cutting mechanism while the blade wheel
is spinning. Tampering with this feature will also
VOID ANY responsibility for safety.
A safety switch is positioned on the bushing holder flip
up guard to prevent operation unless fully closed.
● ● This prevents someone from inserting their hands or
fingers in the cutting mechanism while the blade wheel
is spinning. Tampering with this feature will also
VOID ANY responsibility for safety.
A lockable main power disconnect is provided to pre-
vent the possibility of hazardous electrical shock while
servicing the main electrical enclosure. (See How to
use the Lockout Device, in Section 1)
