1.7 Definition of the danger zone
The danger zone is the area in the vicinity of working equipment which poses a
hazard to the safety of persons located within it.
The danger zone of the vacuum tube lifter

UMBO
(see red hatched area) is beneath
the gripper and load and also directly above the gripper and operator handle.

will fall or drop quickly or that the gripper will become
detached from the load and spring upward.
In the event that the load falls, the danger zone greatly depends on the type of load
and the transport height. Loads should therefore be carried as close to the ground
as possible.
