Residual risks
The residual risks have been analysed and evaluated by means of a hazard and risk analysis
in accordance with DIN EN ISO 14121. Unavoidable structure-related residual risks that exist
over the genset’s entire service life are mainly attributable to the following causes:
Residual risk
Possible causes
Danger to life
Misuse / improper handling
Touching with wet hands
No protective device
Faulty / damaged electrical
components
Exhaust / fuel vapours
Risk of injury
Misuse / improper handling
Careless transport
Hot / rotating parts
Pull cable springs back (recoil
starter)
Environmental hazard
Misuse / improper handling
Fire
Consumables (fuel,
lubricants, engine oil etc.)
Emissions (noise, exhaust)
Material damage to
the genset
Misuse / improper handling
Non-compliance with the
operating and maintenance
stipulations
Overload / overheating
Engine oil level too high / too
low
Unsuitable consumables
Material damage to
other property
Misuse / improper handling
Overvoltage or undervoltage
Performance / function
of genset restricted
Improper maintenance /
repair
Unsuitable consumables
Operation at altitudes greater
than 1000 m above sea level
¨
Use the genset properly and carefully to help reduce the occurrence of these residual
risks to a minimum:
– Pay attention to all warning notices on the genset’s housing.
– Follow the notices and instructions in the operating manual.
– At the installation site, also pay attention to special warning notices and inform
yourself about the regulations that apply locally.
