Findings (2)

R-GM-06Emergency stop out of reachNon-conformingS4 × L3 = 12High

An operator cannot reach an emergency stop from every working position.

Action Add stops or a pull-cord run so no working position is more than the methodology's distance from one.

Entanglement or crushing at moving parts · due 2025-06-11 · AS 4024.1601 §5.5

R-GM-10Stored energy sources not documentedRecords / traceabilityS3 × L3 = 9Moderate

Stored energy is not documented, so isolation cannot be verified as complete.

Action Walk the machine with the maintainer, list every energy source, and publish it at the isolation point.

Loss of design or inspection traceability · due 2025-06-27 · ISO 14118 §6
