When boom is folded/unfolded in accordance with the information in the instruction handbook, no part of the
boom shall normally extend more than 4 m above the ground.
The folding/unfolding operations shall not require a manual force greater than 250 N.
Booms that can be manually folded/unfolded shall be fitted with two handles located at a distance of at least
300 mm from the nearest articulation. These handles may be integral parts of the boom, provided they are
suitably designed and clearly identified.

the low position for transport, maintenance or removal and storage.
4.2.3.4 Stability of the boom when parked and for manual handling
The boom shall be designed to be stable when parked according to the information in the instruction
handbook on firm ground with an inclination of at least 8,5° in all directions.
Where transport rollers are fitted to the boom for ease of manual handling when detached from the tanker, the
boom and the location of these rollers shall be designed so that the boom is stable and will not overturn during
such handling.
This requirement shall be checked as follows: Place the boom, which has been parked in accordance with the
information in the instruction handbook, on a horizontal and even plane. Then push it at a speed of 1 m/s

The standard EN 707:1999+A1:2009 outlines critical safety requirements specific to the design and construction of slurry tankers, which are essential in the realm of agricultural machinery. By focusing on semi-mounted, trailed, and self-propelled slurry tankers, including their spreading or injecting devices, the standard establishes a clear framework for ensuring safety in machinery operation. One of the significant strengths of this standard is its comprehensive identification of potential hazards associated with slurry tankers. The inclusion of Annex A, which details significant hazards and highlights those not addressed within the scope of the standard, provides manufacturers and operators with a clear understanding of safety considerations. This enables better compliance and enhances safety measures during the operation of slurry tankers. Another essential element of the standard is its emphasis on the verification process for safety requirements. By mandating that manufacturers provide essential information on safe working practices, EN 707 ensures that users are adequately informed to operate the machinery safely and effectively. This guidance is vital in promoting a culture of safety within the agricultural machinery sector. While the standard excludes braking requirements, citing that they will be assessed in future revisions along with evolving European regulations, it still maintains significant relevance given the current context of agricultural machinery operation. Moreover, the decision not to include environmental aspects shows a focused approach on safety rather than environmental impact, making the standard particularly relevant for immediate safety concerns. Overall, EN 707:1999+A1:2009 stands out as a significant document that lays down essential safety frameworks for slurry tankers. Its clearly defined scope and the structured approach toward addressing safety measures make it a pivotal reference for manufacturers and operators in the agricultural machinery industry.
EN 707:1999+A1:2009 표준은 농업 기계 분야의 슬러리 탱커에 대한 안전성을 강조하여, 사용자의 안전을 최우선으로 고려한 문서입니다. 이 표준의 범위는 반고정식, 견인식, 자주식 슬러리 탱커를 포함한 모든 유형의 슬러리 탱커의 설계 및 건설에 대한 구체적인 안전 요구 사항과 그 검증 절차를 명시합니다. 슬러리의 확산 또는 주입 장치까지 포함하고 있어, 슬러리 작업을 수행하는 기계들이 안전하게 운영될 수 있도록 합니다. 이 표준의 강점은 슬러리 탱커의 제조사에게 안전 작업 관행과 관련된 정보를 제공할 것을 요구하는 점입니다. 이를 통해 제조사는 사용자에게 안전하게 기계를 사용할 수 있는 방법을 안내하며, 이는 산업 전반에 걸쳐 안전성을 높이는 데 기여합니다. 또한, 표준 내에는 주요 위험 요소에 대한 목록이 부록 A에 포함되어 있어, 일반적인 위험 요소를 명확히 알 수 있도록 돕고 있습니다. 부록 A에서는 다루어지지 않은 위험들 또한 언급되어 있어, 보다 포괄적으로 안전성을 검토할 수 있는 기회를 제공합니다. 한편, 환경적 측면은 이 표준에서 고려되지 않았습니다. 이는 표준이 주로 안전에 중점을 두고 개발되었음을 의미하며, 환경적 요소는 향후 검토 및 개정 사항으로 남겨두었습니다. 또한, 이 표준은 출판일 이후에 제조된 기계에 적용되는 점을 강조하여, 최신 기술 및 조건에 적합한 안전성을 보장합니다. 결론적으로 EN 707:1999+A1:2009 표준은 농업 기계 슬러리 탱커의 설계 및 운영에서 안전성을 높이는 데 중요한 역할을 하며, 농업 기계 안전 기준의 발전에 기여하고 있습니다.
標準EN 707:1999+A1:2009は、農業機械、特に排水タンクに関する安全性を確保するために制定された重要な文書です。この標準は、半自走式、牽引式、および自走式の排水タンクの設計と構造に関する具体的な安全要件とその検証方法を明確に規定しています。これにより、農業機械の利用者が安全に作業できる環境が提供されます。 この標準は、排水の散布や注入を行うための機械に適用され、圧空または機械的な力によって動作します。そのため、特に農業現場での排水処理作業においては、正確な安全基準が求められます。標準の強みは、全ての排水タンクに関する包括的な安全要件を提供し、それに対する検証手順を示している点です。 附属書Aでは、標準が取り扱う重要な危険要素のリストが提示されており、利用者がどのリスクに注意すべきかが明確にされています。これにより、特定の危険に対する認識を高め、安全な作業慣行を促進することが可能です。また、製造者に対して、安全な作業慣行に関する情報を提供することを求めている点も、利用者の安全に対する配慮がなされていることを示しています。 ただし、注意すべき点として、ブレーキ要件はこの標準には含まれておらず、今後の改訂においてヨーロッパ規則の発展に基づいて検討されることが明記されています。また、環境側面については、本標準では考慮されていないため、別の基準が必要であることも留意すべきです。 この標準は、発行日以降に製造される機械に主に適用されるため、新たに設計された排水タンクの安全性向上に寄与することが期待されます。全体として、EN 707:1999+A1:2009は、農業機械の安全性を確保するための重要な枠組みであり、その影響は今後の農業作業における安全基準の設定に大きく寄与するでしょう。
La norme EN 707:1999+A1:2009 relative aux machines agricoles, spécifiquement aux épandeurs de lisier, présente un cadre essentiel pour assurer la sécurité lors de la conception et de la construction de ces équipements. Elle s'applique aux épandeurs semi-remorqués, traînés et auto-portés, y compris leurs dispositifs d'épandage ou d'injection, et décrit des exigences de sécurité spécifiques et leur vérification. L'une des forces de cette norme réside dans sa précision. Elle couvre une variété de machines agronomiques, garantissant ainsi que tous les épandeurs de lisier, indépendamment de leur mode de fonctionnement- qu'il soit pneumatique ou mécanique-sont soumis aux mêmes critères de sécurité stricts. Cela permet non seulement de protéger les opérateurs, mais également de garantir un fonctionnement efficace des machines, contribuant ainsi à une meilleure productivité agricole. Le document précise également que des informations sur les pratiques de travail sécuritaires doivent être fournies par les fabricants, renforçant ainsi l'importance de la sensibilisation à la sécurité dans le secteur. Les annexes, notamment l'Annexe A, identifient les dangers significatifs auxquels la norme s'attaque, clarifiant également les risques qui n'ont pas été abordés. Cela offre aux utilisateurs une vision d'ensemble des risques associés à l'utilisation des épandeurs de lisier et leur permet de prendre des mesures proactives pour assurer leur sécurité. Cependant, il est à noter que les aspects environnementaux ne sont pas considérés dans cette norme, ce qui pourrait être une faiblesse, surtout dans un contexte où les pratiques agricoles durables sont de plus en plus valorisées. De plus, les exigences en matière de freinage ne sont pas incluses et seront examinées lors de révisions futures, en fonction des évolutions de la réglementation européenne. En conclusion, la norme EN 707:1999+A1:2009 s'avère pertinente et robuste pour le secteur des machines agricoles, apportant un cadre solide pour la sécurité des épandeurs de lisier tout en soulignant des domaines potentiellement à améliorer pour l'avenir. Sa mise en œuvre est cruciale pour garantir une utilisation sûre et efficace de ces équipements sur le terrain.
Die Norm SIST EN 707:1999+A1:2010 behandelt die Sicherheitsanforderungen für landwirtschaftliche Maschinen, insbesondere für Güllefassungen, die in verschiedenen Konfigurationen wie halbmontierten, gezogenen und selbstfahrenden Varianten eingesetzt werden. Der umfassende Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm stellt sicher, dass die Sicherheit der Nutzer bei der Handhabung und dem Einsatz dieser Maschinen im Vordergrund steht. Eine der größten Stärken dieser Norm ist die klare Definition spezifischer Sicherheitsanforderungen sowie deren Verifizierung für das Design und die Konstruktion der Güllefassungen. Diese Anforderung ist entscheidend, um ein hohes Sicherheitsniveau in der landwirtschaftlichen Praxis zu gewährleisten. Darüber hinaus bietet die Norm wichtige Informationen zu sicheren Arbeitspraktiken, die vom Hersteller bereitgestellt werden sollten. Dies trägt dazu bei, das Bewusstsein für Sicherheit im Umgang mit diesen Maschinen zu erhöhen und potenzielle Risiken zu minimieren. Ein weiterer positiver Aspekt der Norm ist die detaillierte Auflistung der signifikanten Gefahren, die in Anhang A behandelt werden. Dies gibt den Nutzern und Herstellern eine klare Vorstellung davon, welche Risiken zu berücksichtigen sind und welche nicht Gegenstand dieser Norm sind. Auch wenn bestimmte Umweltaspekte nicht in dieser Norm berücksichtigt werden, zeigt die klare Fokussierung auf Sicherheitsfragen, dass die Norm für die Branche von hoher Relevanz ist. Es ist wichtig zu beachten, dass diese Norm hauptsächlich für Maschinen gilt, die nach dem Ausgabedatum der Norm hergestellt wurden. Dies stellt sicher, dass die neuesten Sicherheitsstandards auch in neuen Produkten implementiert werden.
