4 Safety requirements and/or measures
4.1 General
Machines shall comply as appropriate with EN 292 for hazards which are not dealt with and especially with
Annex A of EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995 when EN 292 does not give precise requirements.
Unless otherwise specified in this standard, the machine shall comply with the requirements of prEN

NOTE The dynamic stability of the slurry tanker will be dealt with by the revision of the standard.
4.2 Requirements for all types of slurry tankers
4.2.1 Manual controls
4.2.1.1 Manual control of the distributing operation
It shall be possible to start and stop the distributing operation from the driving position of the tractor or self-
propelled machine.
4.2.1.2 Manual control for the compressor or the pump
Preferably, it shall be possible to actuate the manual control for the compressor or the pump from the driving
position of the tractor or self-propelled machine.
Otherwise one manual control, accessible from the ground, shall be located on each side of the tank at a
minimum horizontal distance of 550 mm from the central axis of PTO drive shaft, measured perpendicular to
this axis (see example in figure 1).
The functions linked to the different positions of the manual control shall be clearly identified.
Dimensions in millimetres
1 - Compressor or pump
2 - Central axis of PTO drive shaft
3 - Area in which manual controls of the
compressor shall not be located

4.2.2 Tank
4.2.2.1 Openings
The tank shall have sufficiently sized and placed opening(s) to allow effective cleaning of all of the tank interior
or to eliminate any clogging without the necessity for personnel to enter the tank.
Openings in the upper part of the tank greater than 400 mm in diameter, or if they are rectangular of more
than 400 mm x 300 mm, shall be provided with a grating which can only be removed by the use of tools. The
apertures in the grating shall not exceed these dimensions.
4.2.2.2 Covers for openings
Covers on the upper part of the tank shall be designed, or fitted with a device, to prevent their unintentional
closing.
Where a cover is hydraulically controlled, it shall be possible to actuate the manual control from the driving
position of the tractor or self-propelled machine and the hydraulic hose coupling which connects to the tractor
shall be clearly identified.
