A key rotatably supported in a mounting and capable of being brought into engagement with a lock is held in the correct orientation for engaging the lock by being locked to the mounting by a retractable sleeve. Only when the mounting is brought into engagement with the lock does a portion of the lock engage the sleeve and push it back relative to the mounting to free the key for rotation. The mounting may be on a moveable part of a machine guard with the lock on a fixed part and controlling operation of the machine.
