Residual dangers, residual
risks
Despite careful working and compliance with
standards and regulations, the occurrence of
other risks when using the industrial truck can-
not be entirely excluded.
The industrial truck and all other system com-
ponents comply with current safety require-
ments. Nevertheless, even when the truck is
used for its proper purpose and all instructions
are followed, some residual risk cannot be ex-
cluded.
Even beyond the narrow danger areas of the
industrial truck itself, a residual risk cannot be
excluded. Persons in this area around the in-
dustrial truck must exercise a heightened de-
gree of awareness, so that they can react im-
mediately in the event of any malfunction, inci-
dent or breakdown etc.
WARNING
All persons that are in the vicinity of the industrial
truck must be instructed regarding these dangers
that arise through use of the industrial truck.
In addition, we draw attention to the safety regula-
tions in these operating instructions.
The risks can include:
●
Escape of consumables due to leakages,
rupture of lines and containers etc.
●
Falling, tripping etc. when moving the indus-
trial truck, especially if consumables have
leaked.
●
The stability of the industrial truck has been
tested to the latest standards. These stand-
ards only take into account the static and
dynamic tipping forces that can arise during
specified use in accordance with the operat-
ing rules and intended purpose. The risk of
exceeding the moment of tilt that arises
from improper use or incorrect operation
cannot be excluded in extreme cases, and
will impact stability.
●
Risk of feet being crushed under the load
when the load is lowered.
●
Pinch and shear points between the load,
industrial truck and surroundings.
