Informacje bezpieczeństwa GPSR

List of product safety warnings for forestry and the woodworking industry based on the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on General Product Safety (GPSR). 1. Electrical shock: Ensure that electrical machinery and equipment are properly grounded and regularly inspected for cable damage and insulation. Do not use damaged electrical equipment. 2. Moving parts: Take special care near moving parts of machinery such as saws, knives and chains. Always use covers and protections, and make sure they are properly installed and functional. 3. Blades: Use the right tools to sharpen and maintain your cutting blades. Blades should be checked and replaced regularly as soon as there are signs of wear or damage. 4. Noise: Use hearing protection when working with machines that emit high noise levels. Regular exposure to noise can lead to permanent hearing damage. 5. Vibration: Reduce working time with vibration-generating machines and use anti-vibration gloves. Prolonged exposure to vibration can lead to vibrational syndrome. 6. Dust and chips: Wear a dust mask or respirator when working in a dusty environment. Inhaling wood dust can lead to respiratory problems and allergies. 7. Burns: Do not touch the hot surfaces of engines and exhaust systems. Always wait for the machine to cool down before starting maintenance or repairs. 8. Falls: When working at height, use appropriate safety features such as safety harnesses, ropes, and helmets. Make sure ladders and scaffolding are stable and meet safety standards. 9. Injuries: Always wear appropriate protective clothing, including glasses, gloves, helmet and work shoes. The outfit should be well fitted and provide protection against mechanical injuries. 10. Overloads: Do not exceed the permissible loads of machinery and equipment. Overload can lead to breakdowns and accidents. 11. No supervision: Never leave machinery or equipment unattended during operation. Make sure that no unauthorized person has access to them. 12. Transportation: Use appropriate means of transport and security when transporting machinery and equipment. Make sure they are firmly fixed and secured against sliding. 13. Fire: Keep your workplace free of flammable materials such as sawdust, chips, and fuel. Keep an efficient fire extinguisher on hand and check its condition regularly. 14. Material Retreat: Keep a safe distance from machinery during woodworking to avoid injury caused by material retreat. 15. Unauthorized persons: Make sure that all persons working with machinery and equipment have the appropriate qualifications and training. Unauthorized persons should not have access to machinery. 16. Course: Pass appropriate training in the operation and safety of machinery and equipment. Refresh your knowledge and skills regularly.
