Cite as Mich. Admin. Code R 408.14465
Rule 4465. (1) A manually controlled molding machine must have a 2-hand control,
single-stroke mechanism for the squeeze cycle for each operator assigned to the machine.
A 2-hand control must be installed so as to prevent bridging the control buttons and so it
can be operated by 2 hands only. A squeezer head that is so equipped that the operator
must hold it in the operating position with one hand and actuate a 1-hand control with the
other is acceptable.
(2) The squeezer head of a molding machine must be positioned so as to avoid a
pinch point with the sand chute.
(3) Automatic and semiautomatic molding machines must be in compliance with
General Industry Safety and Health Standard Part 1. “General Provisions,” being
R 408.10001 to R 408.10098 of the Michigan Administrative Code.
