ABSTRACT:
A dual purpose sheet feeding and safety apparatus is described, which comprises a pivotable arm having a weighted member opposite the pivot end thereof. The weighted member rests upon and urges sheet material into the bite of a pair of feed rollers under the influence of gravity. When the sheet material has become depleted, the arm and weighted member pivot to a final rest position that has the weighted member covering the bite of the rollers. The weighted member now acts as a safety guard for protecting an operator's fingers or clothing from entering the roller bite.
