Eye Protection Must Be Worn When Equipment Is Operating Sign
Product code: PSS-MAN-005
Communicate conditional eye protection requirements where machinery poses intermittent hazard. This AS 1319 mandatory sign uses the blue circle and white pictogram to instruct workers that eye protection is mandatory only while equipment runs, reducing confusion and improving compliance in mixed-use workshops.
Material
Rigid plastic sheet suited to indoor and sheltered or general outdoor applications, subject to the print finish and site exposure.
Viewing distance is indicative; check approach distance, lighting and mounting position for the site.

Product details
Communicate conditional eye protection requirements where machinery poses intermittent hazard. This AS 1319 mandatory sign uses the blue circle and white pictogram to instruct workers that eye protection is mandatory only while equipment runs, reducing confusion and improving compliance in mixed-use workshops.
Supplied in colorbond, polypropylene, and vinyl across four sizes from 240×180 mm to 600×450 mm. Lamination is recommended for machine-adjacent mounting where coolant splash or dust accumulation occurs. Platinum Signs manufactures in Australia and delivers nationwide with competitive trade pricing and bulk discounts for multi-machine or multi-facility orders.
Check the sign format before ordering
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.
This is general product information, not legal or engineering advice. A safety sign is one part of a workplace control system; confirm the site and jurisdictional requirements before ordering.
Material options
Rigid coated sheet steel suited to demanding indoor and outdoor installations. Print life depends on finish, exposure, edges and mounting.
Indicative durability: Long-term substrate; print and site conditions apply · Typical use: Permanent installations, harsh environments
Rigid plastic sheet suited to indoor and sheltered or general outdoor applications, subject to the print finish and site exposure.
Indicative durability: Medium-term use; site conditions apply · Typical use: Warehouses, factories, permanent indoor/outdoor
Peel-and-stick vinyl for smooth surfaces. Walls, doors, machinery, and equipment labelling.
Indicative durability: Short- to medium-term use; surface and exposure affect service life · Typical use: Indoor walls, equipment labels, smooth surfaces
Size guide
Viewing distances are selection aids, not prescribed compliance distances. Check the site approach, lighting, wording and mounting position.
| Size | Indicative distance | Typical use |

Optional finishes
Pre-drilled Holes (4 corners)
4 pre-drilled mounting holes in each corner for easy screw or cable-tie installation.
Available with rigid materials only.
Lamination
Clear protective overlaminate for added UV and scratch resistance. Service life still depends on the print, exposure, cleaning and installation.
Available with vinyl or aluminium only.
Reflective Class 1 (High Intensity)
High-intensity prismatic reflective film. Confirm the grade required by the project specification and relevant authority.
Available with vinyl or aluminium only.
Reflective Class 2 (Engineer Grade)
Engineer-grade reflective film for general site visibility. Confirm suitability for the lighting, approach distance and project specification.
Available with vinyl or aluminium only.

Frequently asked questions
Which size should I mount directly on the machine?
240×180 mm or 300×225 mm work well for machine-mounted placement where space is tight. Larger sizes (450×300 mm+) suit wall or gate mounting where workers see the sign before approaching.
Is lamination worth it for a machine-shop environment?
Yes. Lamination protects against coolant, oil, and metal shavings, extending sign life significantly in machine shops. Without it, expect fading and surface damage within 12–18 months.
Do I need reflective versions for equipment in shaded areas?
Reflective grades provide different visibility performance. Choose the grade required by the project specification and site conditions, and confirm any road, traffic or high-risk requirement with the relevant authority before ordering.
Can I order one sign per machine and combine delivery?
Yes. Group all machines into a single order and we'll deliver to your site in one shipment, reducing costs and coordination effort.
What's the difference between colorbond and polypropylene for durability?
Colorbond is heavier-gauge and more resistant to impact and warping; polypropylene is lighter and more cost-effective but less robust. For high-vibration machinery, colorbond is the stronger choice.
