Definitions.
(a) The term "operator" shall
mean a person who operates a machine covered by this order by performing such
functions as starting or stopping the machine, placing materials into or
removing them from the machine, or any other functions directly involved in the
operation of the machine.
(b) The
term "helper" shall mean a person who assists in the operation of a machine
covered by this order by helping place materials into or remove them from the
machine.
(c) The term "forming,
punching, and shearing machines" shall mean power-driven metal-working
machines, other than machine tools, which change the shape of or cut metal by
means of tools, such as dies, rolls, or knives which are mounted on rams,
plungers, or other moving parts. Types of forming, punching, and shearing
machines enumerated in this section are the machines to which the designation
is by custom applied.
(3) Exemptions. This order does not apply to
a very large group of metal-working machines known as machine tools. Machine
tools are defined as "power-driven complete metal-working machines having one
or more tool-or work-holding devices, and used for progressively removing metal
in the form of chips." Since the order does not apply to machine tools, the
18-year age minimum does not apply. They are classified below so that they can
be readily identified.
