Seeking Guidance on Safe Installation of Pull Cords and Stop Switches for Belt Conveyors: What Are the Key Standards?

I need help regarding belt conveyor safety in general and information regarding the installation of pull cords and the stop switches in particular. To be specific, I need to know about the:

1. Height of the pull cord from the ground
2. Distance between the edge of the belt/rolls and the pull cord
3. Distance between two switches
4. Distance between the supports for the cord

And any other information that may be required for the perfect installation of the emergency stop system. Please help me with the relevant references of standards to be followed in this matter.
