the guard
The guard is supplied in two separate assemblies which are mounted at each end of the table. A plate fitted with a rectangular locating block having equivalent width to the table slots is positioned at each end of the table in one of the T slots and the parrallel sole bars are clamped to the mounting plate by two socket cap screws (allen key supplied). The two parallel sole bars support a kingpost to which a pivoting bracket is fitted supporting a ball bearing sliding track to which the polycarbonate transparent front panels are fixed.
Each front panel slides aside giving access to the table and cutter.
Front panels swing aside parallel to the side panels, giving maximum access to the table.

how to order
Select size of guard from the table opposite by table size. Specify type of mounting and 'T' slot size as fig:1. A risk assessment could necessitate the use of Electrical Interlocks, Back Guards & Infill Guards, details of which are shown on the next page. Our sales engineers are always available to assist in specifying the correct guard.

Additional operator safety can be provided by the installation of this compact yet totally effective and reliable safety switch. As the two front panels are closed the actuator tongue enters the switch body and closes internal contacts linked to the machine controls thus allowing machine operation only when the guard is properly closed. Interlocks are normally fitted to the right hand side on SSA/2/3/6 and to the left hand side on SSA/00/1.
Option of left hand or right hand side fixing of switch. The Safety Switch is supplied fitted to the right hand side as shown unless otherwise stated

The Major Sliding Lathe shields
These high quality steel lathe shields with a polycarbonate window provide maximum operator protection on standard machines or large C.N.C. lathe applications. Suitable for chucks up to 1200mm (larger sizes are available from our specials department).The four support stands are adjustable for ease of mounting to the headstock.The shield slides over the headstock and out of the way when it is necessary to work at the point of operation for changing tooling, piecepart, etc. The shield can be supplied with an electrical interlock incorporating a safety limit switch working in accordance with EN 1088, which will prevent the machine from running when the guard is in the open position.

Lathe Guards
TXS saddle mount lathe shields
This protection shield is normally mounted on the cross-slide of the lathe although mounting to other parts of the machine is possible. The steel structure with a 4mm thick polycarbonate window allows protection from chips and coolant, along with visibility to the point of operation.The front portion of the shield hinges up for access.The shield is ideal for applications where a simple chuck guard is insufficient, as it protects the operator when machining is taking place at a distance from the headstock.

Lathe Guards
the LXS lathe chuck guards
The LXS Lathe Chuck Guard consists of a semicircular construction made from high impact resistant transparent material which is mounted on to a chromium plated extension tube, fastened to the headstock of the lathe. The semicircular guard covers the upper half of the lathe chuck as shown above. Access to the workpiece is quick and easy, the guard is lifted and swung away from the operator. The size of the guard required is dependant on the centre height of the lathe and the diameter of the chuck. On lathes up to a centre height of 7" there is only a small variation in diameter between the 3 and 4 jaw chucks, and therefore one size of guard will suffice. On lathes in excess of a centre height of 7" there is a greater variation in the diameter between the chucks. It is therefore advisable to use two guards to give adequate protection, eg. LXS 653 shown on opposite page with LXS 400 and LXS 600.

ordering instructions
Select the guard required from the selection chart. If you have selected a guard with an electrical interlock, no further information is required. For guards without interlocks you need to specify the type of mounting bracket required from the above table. If no mounting bracket is specified then a type B bracket will be supplied.

Drill Guards
DXS safetispeed drill guards
The Guard has been specially developed to give maximum all round protection for the operator with a high standard of visibility without adversely affecting operation time. The drill guard consists of two major components.The drill guard mounting which is fitted to the quill of the machine and the drill guard sleeves which clip into the mounting and are held in position by three spring loaded ball catches and retaining screws. IMPORTANT Bushes are only used with the Type A mounting to reduce the bore size from 70mm down to 37.85mm (shown opposite). For quill diameters from 70mm up to 95mm the Type 1L, 2L and 3L mountings should be used. NOTE: NO BUSHES REQUIRED. For other types of mountings Type AS1, B, 1F and 2F should be used. The guard consists of two or three sleeves, the inner sleeve being a ribbed cage which is held stationary in the guard holder. The outer sleeve is free to move up and down on the inner cage and is fitted with a guide groove which gives radial movement to the outer sleeve thus preventing jamming. The outer sleeve is fitted with a transparent acrylic window (as standard) held in position by two slideways and a retaining screw. The window can be quickly removed and replaced at regular intervals giving maximum visibility at all times. The outer sleeve rests on the piecepart or jig. As the drilling operation takes place the inner cage moves down and automatically protects the window from metal slivers which are cut up by the edges of the inner cage. The basic drill guard (i.e. DXS-500) is bored suitable for a quill diameter of 2.75" (70mm). The 13 sizes of reducing bushes will cover any quill diameter down to a minimum of 1.5". Determine your quill diameter or point of fixing at the time of ordering and select the appropriate drill guard. If a bush is required, refer to the table opposite. The bush may be ordered separately. Sizes outside the standard range can be supplied by our 'Specials' department.

Chip Guard
magnetic based safety chip guard for minimum interference
The Magnetic Based Safety Chip Guard can be attached to any ferrous part of the machine by means of the powerful magnetic base. The guards can be fitted with a special double arm, each arm having both a longitudinal and swivelling movement and the guard can also be individually adjusted.This combination of movement allows the guard to be positioned at any angle. The guards are made with a top curvature to deflect flying chips but 90% of the guard is a flat optically undistorted window through which the operator can clearly see the work in progress.
