NOTE Machines and equipment which are covered by this standard are listed in Annex E. SIST EN 15094:2008
This standard assumes that: installations are operated and maintained by adequately trained and competent personnel; manual intervention for setting, adjustment and maintenance is accepted as part of the normal use of the equipment; the machinery is used with adequate workplace lighting conforming to EN 12464-1 or to local regulations. In general, risks and associated hazards are production and plant-related. The main differences arising from the processing of different materials in different qualities and the surrounding (i. e. different combination of machines, different boundary conditions, see Annex G). The resulting variety of "different plants" could not be covered in all details in a standard. To deal with this fact an individual risk assessment of the cold flat rolling mill in question shall be carried out (see 4) considering the safety requirements of this standard. Where the means of reducing the risk is by the physical arrangement or positioning of the installed machines, 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 line, the manufacturer shall include in the Information for use details of the system and of the elements of information required by the operating personnel. This shall include protective measures used according 4.11.9 and 4.11.10 of EN ISO 12100-SIST EN 15094:2008
