French translation:sécurité, sécurité anti-démarrage ...
Explanation:
dispositif de verrouillage sécurité, contact de sécurité démarrage, ...

Something along those lines.

I am presuming that "guard" here refers to the protection function interlocked to the door, not to a physical barrier or shield, given that it appears to be inside the machine housing. Mind you, it might also be a physical barrier of some sort, given that there ARE idiots capable of opening the door and reaching inside a machine while it is operating !!!!!

agree  Tom Bishop: I'd go with "dispositif de sécurité", as given your own comment it might include a physical barrier but in any case must incorporate a device required to shut the machine down rather than simply prevent it starting.

couvercle de service


Explanation:
Quand le couvercle de service (ou d'entretien) est enlevé, il faut que la machine ne puisse pas démarrer afin d'éviter des blessures. Ceci s'effectue d'habitude en utilisant un micro-interrupteur.
