MECHANICAL HAZARDS
As for the generic mechanical hazard that can occur during operations requiring the use of hand tools, Enapter Srl
recommends wearing appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and to use suitable tools.
Operator
’
s protection
When performing any operation, the operators must wear the appropriate PPE, such as cut
resistant gloves,
safety shoes, protective goggles etc.
The preliminary steps of the installation phase do not necessarily need to be performed by specifically trained
personnel. A general training on how to transport heavy and bulky objects, the use of electrical equipment and the
application of general safety principles is sufficient.
There are residual risks associated with the manual handling of the packaging and of the device during installation
that can result in:
✓
impacts due to uncontrolled movements of the load,
✓
entanglements,
✓
falling of the load,
✓
loss of stability,
✓
overturning.
To prevent these risks, the packaging/device must be handled by at least two people.
Operators must comply with the general safety principles during the handling phases.
In particular, before moving a load:
✓
Operators must allow for sufficient clearance when using aisles and passageways with
openings/doorways with at least 500 mm of free space in width and height, to grant the easy
transit of the packaging and/or machine parts.
✓
Operators must verify that there are no people on the passageways.
✓
Operators must verify that there is sufficient visibility to grant a safe moving of materials.
