How the Roller Cover Works
The roll away cover works much like a traditional roller shade would work that is in your house. The assembly consists of a roller pin which has an industrial spring inside of it. This spring keeps tension on the curtain material and prevents the curtain from sagging.The guard has two mounting locations. One is located on the roller assembly, and the other mounting location is located at the end of the curtain material. At both of these locations you bolt the guard to the machine, or the floor.
The roll away cover can be mounted in a horizontal or vertical position. You can install the cover anywhere and just about in any space. Since the roller assembly takes up the slack of the curtain material, there is no worry that the curtain will sag.
