Customers frequently asked questions
What are Use Machine Guards On-the-Spot Labels? Use Machine Guards On-the-Spot Labels are mandatory safety labels that provide a stick-on reminder to keep guards in use before operating machinery.
Where should I apply these labels? Apply them near start controls, access covers or guard release points so operators see the message during start-up and pre-use checks.
Do these labels support recognised standards? Yes, they conform to ISO 7010, helping maintain consistent mandatory safety messaging on machinery.
Will self-adhesive vinyl stick properly on machinery panels? It performs best on clean, dry, smooth surfaces, so degrease first and press firmly along the edges for a secure bond.
Are Use Machine Guards on-the-spot labels (Pack of 6) suitable for every machine type? They suit most guarded equipment where labels can be applied to smooth panels, but use a rigid sign where surfaces are rough or exposed to heavy abrasion.

Useful guard labels and signs for close-up machine instructions
For larger visible notices, choose use guards signs for workshop machinery where the instruction needs to be seen before use. Suitable for shared equipment, operator routes and training areas.
Where guard position matters before start-up, install machine guard position start-up signs near the operating controls. Helpful for reducing rushed restarts after cleaning, setting or adjustment.
For repeated application from a roll, consider roll format guards must be in position labels when several machines need the same reminder. Practical for production lines and maintenance replacement stock.
When servicing requires guard removal, add mandatory stop before removing guards signs for clearer maintenance control. Useful near access covers, isolators and engineering workstations.
To select matching messages, explore machine guarding signs for safer equipment use across the category. Useful when you want small labels and larger signs to work together.
