RESIDUAL RISKS THAT CANNOT BE ELIMINATED
DEFINITION: Residual risks that cannot be eliminated are all of those risks that, for several reasons, cannot be
removed, and for each one we provide the instructions to operate in maximum safety.
The risk of injury to hands, body and eyesight, by operating the machine without using safety pro-
tections correctly assembled and fully intact.
The risk of injuries to hands if, for any reason, you touch the side broom or the central broom, as they
are spinning. The brooms can only be touched when the motor is switched off and with the aid of pro-
tective gloves, to avoid poking or cutting yourself with sharp slivers of debris in the bristles.
The risk of inhaling harmful substances, scratches to hands, when emptying out the container (hop-
per), without using protective gloves and mask to protect the respiratory tract.
The risk of not controlling the machine by using it on gradients that exceed those stated in chapter 5
or not leaving it stopped in a parking position.
The risk of explosion or fire by filling it up with the motor running or with the motor off but not com-
pletely cooled down.
The risk of serious burns by carrying out any form of maintenance with the motor running or with the
motor off but not completely cooled down.
GENERAL RISKS FOR THE BATTERIES
Before re-charging the batteries make sure the room is well-ventilated or re-charge the batteries in
facilities set up specifically for this purpose.
Do not smoke, do not approach open flames, do not use emery wheels and welding machines; in any
case, do not cause sparks near the batteries.
Do not draw current from the battery with clamps, plugs and provisional contacts.
Make sure that all connections (wire terminals, plugs, sockets, etc.) are tightened correctly and in good
working conditions.
Do not place metal tools on the battery.
Keep the battery clean and dry, possibly with the use of anti-static cloths.
Top-up with distilled water every time the electrolyte level drops to 5 - 10 mm from the splash-guard.
Avoid charging it too much it and keep the battery temperature below 45°C.
Keep any centralised topping-up systems in perfect working order by performing periodic
maintenance.
The risk of electrocution and short circuiting; for safety, before carrying out any maintenance or repairs
on the batteries (or the machine), disconnect the +/- clamps from the battery poles.
The risk of explosion during charging; this may occur if you attempt to use an unsuitable battery char-
ger (based on the Amperes of the battery).
While charging the battery, or, nevertheless, when the battery charger plug is plugged in, it is forbid-
den to turn the machine on and it is forbidden to move it (including manually).
In case of contact with acid:
- rinse any splashes in the eyes or on the skin with plenty of water;
- if necessary contact a doctor immediately;
- wash dirty clothes with water.
