Danger zone
• The danger zone is the area in which persons are in danger due to the
movements of the machine or load.
• The danger zone also includes the area that is affected by falling
material, equipment or by debris that is thrown out.
• The danger zone on a slope is different from the one on a level surface
(secure the load). Stop machine operation immediately as soon as
someone enters the danger zone – see chapter “ Machine travel on
slopes” on page 5-12.
• 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.
