This specific risk assessment is part of the general risk assessment of the machine. Where the means of reducing the risk is by the physical arrangement or positioning of the installed machine, the manufacturer shall include in the information for use a reference to the reduction means to be provided, and to any limiting value of the requirement, and, if appropriate, to the means of verification. Where the means of reducing the risk is by a safe system of working the machinery, such as for installation or maintenance, the manufacturer shall include in the information for use details of the safe system and of the elements of training required by the personnel.
