5.1 FOREWORD
The considerations in this chapter are based on the assumption that:
 the conditions and the intended use of the machine, provided for and specified in this manual, are well
known to the client and/or user and to every operator using the machine
 the workers were adequately informed, instructed and, if necessary, trained on the existing risks in the
workplace in compliance with the current laws, among other things.
 access to the work environment is not allowed to unauthorized persons, visitors, and minors.
5.2 SAFETY DEVICES AND RESIDUAL RISKS
Information concerning the dangers inherent to this machine, the relative risks, and the measures adopted to
eliminate or minimise them are provided herein; if a risk has not been eliminated, information is provided
concerning the residual risk and potential measures to be taken by the user to limit the extent of said risks even
further
5.2.1 HAZARDS THAT CHARACTERISE THIS MACHINE
With reference toFigure 42 , the machine is characterized by the following hazards:
mechanical hazards:
A. Shearing, crushing, cutting: between the dough dividing components, while passing through the hopper
B. Locking and entanglement, crushing, impact, contusion: between the moving components (access to
the dividing mechanism) passing through the product outfeed opening
C. Gripping and dragging: outfeed belts , areas of confluence between belts and cylinders
D. Crushing, shearing, grabbing and dragging, impact, severe contusion: motion transmission parts and
other internal moving parts
E. Gripping and entanglement : internal volume of the flour duster
The machine is also characterized by the following hazards:
electrical hazards;
F. electrocution: by contact with live parts V ≥ 50V AC (ex. inside the electrical panel, the motor terminal
boxes, etc., due to contact with the internal parts of the inverter, or with parts powered by this without waiting
for the total discharge of the residual voltage inside it)
