1. Mechanical hazards (caused for example by):
5
- machine-parts or work pieces:
6
 a) shape:
7
 b) relative location:
8
 c) mass and stability (potential energy of elements which may move under the effect of gravity)
9
 d) mass and velocity (kinetic energy of elements in controlled or uncontrolled motion)
10
 e) inadequacy of mechanical strength.
11
- accumulation of energy inside the machinery e.g:
12
 f) elastic elements, springs
13
 g) liquids and gases under pressure
