safety tips

Hi there.

I have a C&P 10×15 original condition (or so it seems) It has no safety guards on it and the giant teeth on the right (my right) freak me out. Does anyone have any pics of the guards or ideas on how to make the press a little safer. I am interested in viewing how the guards are fixed to the body of the press and materials that are used.

Thank you

Well, if you’re cycling the press the correct way the teeth should be moving toward you and then down, so there’s not really an issue of anything getting grabbed and sucked in by the teeth.

That said, my new style came with a guard built into the support for the feed table that covers the top of the gear and then a piece of metal was just screwed onto that to make the guard cover more of the gear.

Ooh thanks so much Chris, this is perfect!
