Thank you Tony Yes, I realize there is very little context. As I mentioned, this is a spreadsheet, so it makes the translation challenging. There is no straight text. To answer your last question, no. It's virtually impossible to answer your other questions without checking with the client, which I may need to do.
Tony M Mar 4, 2018:
@ Asker Once again, here, how does your question term fit in with the text extract you quote? From the wider context, which is woefully lacking here, do you understand that these things that need to be done / things that are causing problems / reasons for lack of efficiency? Is there anything about them in the XLS, like 'to be done by maintenance next week' or something?

Thank you, Rachel. This looks very helpful.

neutral philgoddard : This looks like poor-quality machine translation of "coupe pédale", which is a misparsing of the sentence. I would just put 'packaging pedal".

I know, it's Alibaba, it was just a suggestion. I looked for other terms including the one you suggest, but didn't really find them. As we haven't got further info. on the type of machine involved, it was more of a conjecture.
