The hood guard opening on the infeed side was one inch in height with the cutting blade seven inches from the vertical plane of the planer hood. The outfeed guard housing was damaged and did not enclose the cutting head blade and measured four inches in height and nine inches from the cutting head and provided exposure on the outfeed side of the machine. The distance the sawblade was set back only allowed for a maximum of a 7/8-inch opening. This condition exposed employees to amputation hazards.
