3.7. RESIDUAL DANGERS
Ever since the design phase, FIORENTINI has analysed all the possible dangers related to machine use in
order to eliminate or at the very least minimise the risk of injuries for machine operators. In order to minimise
the risk associated with residual dangers, danger signs and indications of accident-prevention systems and
procedures have been provided for machine operators.
Crushing risks are possible:
during scrubbing brushes adjustment;
during squeegee adjustment;
during recovery tank installation on the machine.
Be extra careful during brush and squeegee adjustment: the machine should not be connected to
mains power supply or, if battery-operated, it should be unplugged, to prevent unwanted machine
starts.
Special danger pictograms are provided to designate critical points on the machine.
DANGER OF CRUSHING AND SHEARING
Crushing and shearing risks are possible:
during squeegee adjustment.
During squeegee adjustment, ensure that no-one close to the machine is able to operate the device
up- and down-stroke controls.
DANGER OF OVERTURNING
Machine overturning is possible:
during normal machine operation when going over slopes with a higher gradient than the
recommended value and when the machine is used to clean uneven/bumpy surfaces (see
3.2).
Do not use the machine to scrub surfaces with gradients exceeding 10% at speeds
exceeding 3 km/h or bumpy or uneven surfaces likely to affect the stability of the
machine.
FIORENTINI declines all responsibility for accidents involving persons or property caused by
machine use on stability-affecting floors. The buyer must provide suitable signage to inform
the user about the condition of the working surfaces.
