SAFETY
2.6.3
Risks for exposed persons
The dangers caused in the situations described in the table below occur when:
•
The person does not respect the safety barrier and enters the danger zone
•
The operator forgets to delimit the boundary of the hazardous area and to afix the no entry
sign in the hazardous area
Cause
Danger
Failure to maintain the safe distance
Crushing
Shearing
Tools falling from elevated positions
Impact
Crushing
Impact with moving parts
Falling on the ground
or from height
Unsuitable operator position (between the lifting platform boom and
ixed or moving obstacles)
Crushing
Shearing
Movement of the vehicle during the positioning operation in the
workplace
Running over
2.6.4
Electrical tolerances
The electrical equipment of the lifting platform was designed and built with reference to the Harmonised
Standard EN 60204-1.
The electrical equipment is suitable for use in the surrounding environment and under the following
working conditions.
2.6.5
Ambient air temperature
The electrical equipment is designed to operate correctly at air temperatures between -10 °C and
+40 °C.
2.6.6
Humidity
The electrical equipment will work correctly in all weather conditions and levels of relative humidity.
2.6.7
Noise level
Airborne noise is produced by the engine of the vehicle that is approved for use on roads.
Sound detection carried out on the platform 1.50 m above the platform during ascent, descent, rotation
and extension, detected sound pressure levels no greater than those listed in chapter 3.
2.6.8
Vibrations and crashes
The lifting platform and relative electrical equipment MUST
NOT
be installed on surfaces that transmit
vibrations and in environments in which there is a danger of impact with other mechanical devices.
The machine does not produce vibrations that could be considered hazardous for the operator.
Measurements carried out under the most unfavourable conditions of use have ascertained that:
•
the total value of vibrations to which the hand-arm system is exposed is less than 2.5 m/sec²
•
the weighted root mean square acceleration value to which the main body is exposed is less
than 0.5 m/sec
