The processing machine (1) is adapted to carry a processing tool driven by a motor and includes a safety shield (4) adapted to at least partly shield the processing tool in relation to a user. The safety shield (4) is arranged displaceably away from its shielding position and a magnetically activatable safety arrangement (14) includes a safety switch (15) being operable between a passive state in which the motor (2) is allowed to operate and an activated state in which the motor is prevented from operation. The safety switch (15) is arranged to switch from its passive state to its activated state when the safety shield (4) is displaced away from its shielding position. At least one magnet (16) is arranged to hold said displaceable safety shield (4) in its shielding position and at the same time hold the safety switch (15) in its passive state.
A processing machine, including a cabinet and being adapted to carry a processing tool, driven by a motor arranged in the cabinet and including a safety shield adapted to at least partly shield the processing tool in relation to a user when the safety shield is in a shielding position in relation to the processing tool, the safety shield being arranged displaceably away from its shielding position in order to allow access to the processing tool, and a magnetically activatable safety arrangement including a safety switch being operable between a passive state in which the motor is allowed to operate and an activated state in which the motor is prevented from operation, said safety switch being arranged to switch from its passive state to its activated state when the safety shield is displaced away from its shielding position, wherein at least one magnet is arranged to hold said displaceable safety shield in its shielding position and at the same time hold the safety switch in its passive state, and wherein said displaceable safety shield is adapted to be carried in its shielding position only by a magnetic force.
