Horizontal reachAreas that are difficult to reach on a horizontal axis, not intended to include instances where standard equipment would allow a FM sufficient access
Vertical reachAreas that are difficult to reach on a vertical axis, not intended to include instances where standard equipment would allow a FM sufficient access
ObstructionAreas that include components that block other components’ range of motion during maintenance
Other ergonomic restrictionsThese areas may result in FMs having limited maneuverability while maintaining the component
