Residual risks are those potential dangers remaining although protection measures and comple-
mentary protection actions were taken during the design of the machine and they are:
1) ROLL-OVER OF THE MACHINE
If the operator does not fulfill the obligation, indicated in the manual, to accompany the machine during
movements and to insert the brake of the machine while using it, the operator may suffer severe crush
injuries due to the roll-over of the machine.
2) SPATTER LOSS OF GAS FREON
If the operator does not fulfill the obligation, indicated in the manual, about the correct connection of
the machine to the vehicle to close the taps of the bottle during extraordinary maintenance operations
and to wear protection glasses and gloves, the operator may suffer injuries due to the spatter of gas
freon.
3) GASHING
If the operator does not fulfill the obligation, indicated in the manual, to disconnect the power supply
before working in the inside of the machine, the operator may suffer injuries due to the contact with the
wings of the electro-fan.
4) SUFFOCATION DUE TO GAS FREON
If the operator does not fulfill the obligation, indicated in the manual, about the correct connection of
the machine to the vehicle, to close the taps of the bottle during extraordinary maintenance opera-
tions, to use the machine in a ventilated area and to perform the correct maintenance of the machine,
the operator may suffer injuries due to the inhalation of gas freon.
5) DIRECT CONTACT WITH HIGH VOLTAGE PARTS
If the operator does not fulfill the obligation, indicated in the manual, to disconnect the power supply
before working in the inside of the machine, the operator may suffer injuries due to the direct contact
with high-voltage parts.
6) INDIRECT CONTACT
If the machine is connected to a socket that is not protected against indirect contacts in compliance
with the norms in force in the country of use, as indicated in the manual, those people who come into
indirect contact with high-voltage parts may suffer injuries.
