Remaining risks
Even if all safety precautions are observed and the machine is used in accordance with the
instructions, some risks still remain:
▪ Touching of revolving parts or tools.
▪ Injury caused by flying logs or log pieces.
▪ Risk of burns if the engine is not properly ventilated.
▪ Hearing loss if ear protection is not worn when working.
▪ Human error (e.g. due to excessive physical exertion, mental strain, etc.)
With every machine, some risks still remain. Therefore you should always be very careful
when working. It is up to the operating personnel to ensure that work is carried out safely.
