English term

Reach into

English to Spanish Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering
I don't really hget the meaning of "reach into" in this context. The company lists the acts that can be punished with suspension ans retraining, one of these acts is "Reaching into operating machinery. 2 days of suspension...".

Entiendo que aquí es ¿"tocar por dentro del la máquina mientras está funcionando"?

Mil gracias as always.

"operating machinery", máquina en funcionamiento, why do you say not only when it's on?

Lo que plantea Jude es sin duda correcto. Esta es solo una alternativa de registro lingüístico un poco más alto, nada más.
