Primary dangers
The following indications concern “residual risks” which must
be pointed out so that the owner, manager and operators can
fully understand them and adopt a responsible approach.
They derive from the risk analysis conducted by the Research
& Development staff as imposed by the European standard EN
267 and the directives in force relevant to the sector (Machinery,
LVD, EMC directives).
