Description
WOODFORD, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA. 1942-07. SAFETY DEVICES ARE INCORPORATED ON ALL MACHINES OF THE 7TH AUSTRALIAN DIVISIONAL MOBILE LAUNDRY AND FORWARD DE-CONTAMINATION UNIT TO INSURE THAT RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONNEL OPERATING THEM IS REDUCED TO A MINIMUM. THE WASHING MACHINES AND THE ROTARY DRIERS HAVE A DEVICE ATTACHED WHICH AUTOMATICALLY SWITCHES THE MACHINES OFF WHEN THE COVER IS RAISED; SO THAT BY THE TIME THE COVER HAS BEEN FULLY RAISED THE MACHINE IS NO LONGER IN MOTION.
