Section 1-In General - Rockford Fosgate DETECT-A-FINGER RKC-502 Installation Manual

Safety References
OSH ACT AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS
Since the enclosed equipment can never overcome
a mechanical deficiency, defect or malfunction in the
machine itself, OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health
Administration) has established certain safety regulations
that the employers (users) must comply with so that the
machines used in their plants, factories or facilities are
thoroughly inspected and are in first-class operating
condition before any of the enclosed equipment is
installed.
1. U.S. Government—An Act—Public Law 91-596, 91st
Congress, S. 2193, December 29, 1970:

PHYSICAL HARM TO HIS EMPLOYEES;
(2) shall comply with occupational safety and
health standards promulgated under this Act.
(b) Each employee shall comply with occupational
safety and health standards and all rules, regulations,

applicable to his own actions and conduct.
2. OSHA 29 CFR Sections that an employer (user)
must comply with include:
1910.211 Definitions.
