Irrespective of all safety regulations, your common sense and appropriate technical
suitability/training are and will remain the most important safety factor for error-free operation
of the machine. Safe working depends primarily on you!
11.7
Remaining risk factors
W A R N I N G
It is important to ensure that each machine has remaining risks.
In the execution of all work (even the simplest) greatest attention is
required. A safe working depends on you!
Even if the machine is used as required it is still impossible to eliminate certain residual risk
factors totally. The following hazards may arise in connection with the machine´s
construction and design:
Risk of noise:
Working for a long time can damage your hearing if you do not use a very good hearing
protection.
Risks of working area:
Keep attention for stones and other things that can be thrown around by the machine.
Risk to the hands or fingers:
Risk of crushing: Operate the machine firmly with both hands. When tilting the dumper box
keep extreme caution.
Risk of burns: Access while it is working in the mowing apparatus. After the operation, the
machine must cool down. Otherwise, there is an acute risk of scalding!
Risk of fire and explosion:
Fuel is highly flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
NEVER refuel fuel or motor oil while the machine is in operation or is hot.
When refuelling and in places where fuel is stored, do not smoke and keep away from naked
flames or sparks.
Do not overfill the fuel tank and avoid the spillage of fuel during refuelling. If fuel is spilled
make sure the area is completely dry and cleaned before starting the motor.
Make sure that the fuel tank cap is tightly closed again after refuelling safely.
Chemical risks:
Never use or refuel a fuel or diesel motor in a closed area without adequate ventilation.
Carbon monoxide emissions from the internal drive units of the motor can cause in confined
spaces through inhalation health effects and death. Therefore use the machine only in well-
ventilated rooms or outdoors in operation.
Liquid fuels can cause serious damage on the skin and the environment.
Vibration:
The declared vibration emission value has been for a standardized test is measured and can
be used to compare one tool with another electric are.
The declared vibration emission value may also be used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure.
Warning: Emission level of vibration can be different from the specified value during the
actual use of the electric tool, depending on the manner in which the power tool is used.
If persons with circulatory disorders expose themselves to strong mechanical vibrations,
damage to blood vessels and/or the nervous system may occur. The following symptoms may
be caused by vibrations on fingers, hands or wrists: "falling asleep" of body parts
(numbness), tingling, pain, stinging, change in skin colour or skin. If any of these symptoms
occur, consult a doctor!
To reduce the risk of "white finger disease", keep your hands warm while working; and
maintain and care for tools and accessories well. These risks can be minimized if all safety
regulations are applied, the machine is properly maintained and cared for and the machine is
used as intended and by appropriately trained personnel.
