Danger zone
• The danger zone is the area in which persons are in danger due to the
movements of the machine, attachment or load.
• The danger zone also includes the area that can be affected by falling
material, equipment or by parts that are thrown out.
• The danger zone on a slope is different from the one on a level surface
(secure the load). See chapter “Operation, driving on slopes”.
• Stop machine operation immediately if persons do not stay clear of the
danger zone.
• Seal off the danger zone should it not be possible to keep a sufficient
safety distance.
• Extend the danger zone sufficiently in the immediate vicinity of
buildings, scaffolds or other elements of construction.
