29 CFR 1910.219(c)(2)(i): All exposed parts of horizontal shafting seven (7) feet or less from floor or working platform, excepting runways used exclusively for oiling, or running adjustments, shall be protected by a stationary casing enclosing shafting completely or by a trough enclosing sides and top or sides and bottom of shafting as location requires. a. In the A house head pulley, the fill belt had an opening to the shaft which measured 12 1/2 inches by 6 inches thereby exposing employees to a rotating shaft and a caught-in hazard. b. In the C house, the dust fan located outside the door of the house had an opening to the shaft of 1 1/2 inches thereby exposing employees to a caught-in hazard. c. In the basement between Pit 2 and 3, the shaft was not properly guarded in that there was 1 1/2 inches between the casing and the shaft and six inches to the shaft thereby exposing employees to a caught-in hazard.
