Road operation machinery - Safety - Part 1: General requirements

This document specifies the common safety requirements for road operation machinery.
This document deals with the significant hazards common to road operation machinery, when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer associated with the whole life time of the machine (transport, assembly, dismantling, equipment in service and out of service, maintenance, moving on site, storage, disabling and scrapping).
NOTE    The requirements specified in this part of the standard are common to two or more families of road operation machinery.
This document gives safety requirements for all types of road operation machinery and shall be used in conjunction with one of parts x to xx.
These machine specific parts do not repeat the requirements from part 1 but supplement or modify the requirements for the type of road operation machinery in question.
This European Standard applies to:
a)   Road surface cleaning machines (as currently defined in EN 15429-1);
b)   Winter service machines (as defined in group 1 and 2 of EN 15144);
c)   Road service area maintenance machines for:
   grass cutting (see Clause 3.1.1.1 of EN 15436-1:2008);
   brush/hedge cutting (see Clause 3.1.1.2 of EN 15436-1:2008);
   mechanical plant/branch cutting (see Clauses 3.1.2 and 3.2.3 of EN 15436-1:2008).
This standard deals with:
a)   equipment permanently mounted on carrier vehicles;
b)   interchangeable equipment;
c)   self-propelled machinery with an integrated  specially designed chassis;
d)   trailed machines;
e)   interfaces.
For multipurpose machinery the parts of the standard that cover the specific functions and applications have to be used, e.g. sweeper used for spreading thawing material or snow removing machines with brooms and ploughs shall use the relevant requirements of prEN xxx parts x, x, x.
Road operation machinery within the scope of prEN xxx parts x to x may include interchangeable auxiliary equipment within the scope of prEN xxx part x either as an integral part of its construction or as interchangeably fitted equipment.

Introduction
This European Standard is a Type C-standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.

When provisions of this Type C-standard are different from those which are stated in Type A- or B-

standards, the provisions of this Type C-standard take precedence over the provisions of the other

standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this Type C-

standard.

The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are

covered are indicated in the scope of this European Standard.

1 Scope

This European Standard specifies the common safety requirements for road operation machinery.

This European Standard deals with the significant hazards common to road operation machinery, when

they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the

manufacturer associated with the whole life time of the machine (transportation, travel and work mode

mounting and dismounting of equipment/attachments in service, routine maintenance, and storage).

NOTE 1 The requirements specified in this part of the standard are common to two or more families of road

operation machinery.

This European Standard gives safety requirements for all types of road operation machinery and should

be used in conjunction with parts 2 to 4-1. These machine specific parts do not repeat the requirements

from part 1 but supplement or modify the requirements for the type of road operation machinery in

question. Therefore, additional specific requirements are given in separate parts of this standard.

This European Standard applies to:
a) road surface cleaning machines (as currently defined in EN 15429-1);
b) winter maintenance equipment (as defined in groups 1 and 2 of EN 15144:2007);

c) road service area maintenance machines for grass/brush cutting (as defined in EN 15436-1:2008)

This European Standard deals with:
— equipment permanently mounted on carrier vehicles;
— interchangeable equipment;
— self-propelled machinery with an integrated specially designed chassis;
— trailed machines;
— interfaces.

This European Standard deals with all significant hazards identified through a risk assessment

pertinent to the machines within the scope of this standard when they are used as intended and under

the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).

A machine which is a combination of several parts with different applications should conform to all

relevant requirements of the standards referring to the corresponding parts of the machine.

For multipurpose machinery the parts of the standard that cover the specific functions and applications

have to be used, e.g. sweeper used for spreading thawing material or snow removing machines with

brooms and ploughs should use the relevant requirements of prEN 17106 parts 2 to 4-1.

This European Standard does not deal with:

— carrier vehicles, e.g. trucks, tractors, construction machinery, mobile industrial handling

equipment;

NOTE 2 These requirements are covered in directives related to the construction of vehicles.

— demountable bodyworks on carrier vehicles (e.g. load platforms, boxes);

— risks associated with the operation of machines in potentially explosive atmospheres;

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 17106-1:2017
prEN 17106-1:2017 (E)
— pedestrian controlled and hand-held machines;

— remote controlled machines, except for the risks related to the working equipment only;

— lawn and garden equipment;
— machines for the maintenance of sports grounds;
— machines for agriculture, horticulture and forestry;

— earth-moving and mobile road construction machinery according to EN 474-1:2006+A4:2013 and

EN 500-1:2006+A1:2009;
— road surface treatment machines according to EN 13020:2015;
— snow-grooming equipment according to EN 15059:2009+A1:2015;

— machines or components which are solely designed for clearing rails such as rail/tram-line

sweepers or blowers;
— sweeping/cleaning equipment according to EN 60335-2-72;
— pit and sewer cleaning vehicles/-machines;
— refuse-collecting vehicles;
— airport machines and equipment;
— snow throwers according to ISO 8437-1.

This European Standard does not include requirements which are covered in directives related to the

construction of vehicles or national road regulations.
NOTE 3 For specific directives and/or road regulations, see bibliography.
The use in public road traffic is governed by the national regulations.

This European Standard does not deal with significant hazards associated with Electromagnetic

compatibility (EMC).

This European Standard does not deal with significant hazards associated with vibration.
