Residual dangers, residual risks
Despite careful working and compliance with
standards and regulations, the occurrence of
other risks when using the truck cannot be en-
tirely excluded.
The truck and all other system components
comply with current safety requirements. Nev-
ertheless, even when the truck is used for its
proper purpose and all instructions are fol-
lowed, some residual risk cannot be excluded.
Even beyond the narrow danger areas of the
truck itself, a residual risk cannot be excluded.
Persons in this area around the truck must ex-
ercise a heightened degree of awareness, so
that they can react immediately in the event of
any malfunction, incident or breakdown etc.
