Agricultural machinery - Rough-terrain Work Platforms for Orchard’s operations (WPO) - Safety

1.1   This European Standard, when used together with EN ISO 4254 1 and EN 15811, specifies safety requirements and measures for self-propelled rough-terrain work platforms for orchard’s operations (WPO) operating at a maximum of 3 m high as defined in 3.1, where the vertical projection of the centre of the area of the platform in all platform configurations at the maximum chassis inclination specified by the manufacturer is always inside the tipping lines, used in agriculture, designed to work on unimproved natural terrain and/or disturbed terrain and intended to move at least two persons to working positions in an orchard where they are carrying out fruit picking, thinning out, pruning, or other operations related to orchard from the work platform.
NOTE   For examples of rough-terrain work platforms for orchard’s operations (WPO), see Figures E. 1 to E.3.
This European Standard describes methods for the elimination or reduction of hazards arising from the intended use of these machines in the course of normal operation and service, except hazards related to conveyor belts and elevators for the bin. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working practices (including residual risks) to be provided by the manufacturer.
When requirements of this document are different from those which are stated in EN ISO 4254 1, the requirements of this document take precedence over the requirements of EN ISO 4254 1 for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this document.
This European Standard, taken together with EN ISO 4254 1 and EN 15811, deals with all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events (as listed in Table 1) relevant to WPOs, when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse foreseeable by the manufacturer.
It does not cover the hazards arising from:
a)   use in potentially explosive atmospheres;
b)   getting on and off the work platform at changing levels;
c)   environmental aspects;
d)   road safety.
1.2   This European Standard does not apply to:

NOTE 1   Figure E.4 gives an example of this type of machine.
b)   boom-type MEWPs (see EN 280);

Ne obravnava nevarnosti, ki izhajajo iz:
a) uporabe v potencialno eksplozivnih atmosferah;
b) prihajanja na ploščad in odhajanja z nje z drugih nivojev.
1.2 Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za:
a) premične dvižne delovne ploščadi (MEWP) (glej standard EN 280);
OPOMBA 1: Na sliki D.4 je prikazan primer te vrste stroja.
b) premične dvižne delovne ploščadi z ročico (glej standard EN 280);
OPOMBA 2: Na slikah D.5 in D.6 sta prikazana primera te vrste stroja.
c) dvižne ploščadi (glej standarda EN 1756-1 in EN 1756-2);
d) delovne ploščadi, ki se vzpenjajo ob jamboru (glej standard EN 1495);
e) dvižne mize (glej standard EN 1570);
f) podporno opremo na tleh za letalski promet (glej npr. standarda EN 1915-1 in EN 1915-2);

With reference to EN ISO 4254-1:2015, Table A.1. 5 Safety requirements and/or measures 5.1 General The WPO shall be in accordance with the safety requirements and/or protective measures of this clause. In addition, the WPO shall be designed according to the principles of EN ISO 12100, for hazards relevant, but not significant, which are not dealt with by this document. Unless otherwise specified in this European Standard, the machine shall comply with the requirements of EN ISO 4254-1. Means of access from the ground level to the work platform when lowered shall be provided. 5.2 Structural and stability calculations Structural and stability calculations shall be performed according to Annex A. 5.3 Chassis 5.3.1 An audible alarm shall start when the machine starts to travel in reverse direction and shall last as long as the machine travels in reverse direction or a rear view camera according to ISO 16001 shall be provided, with which the danger zone behind the machine can be in clear view of the operator. 5.3.2 Every WPO shall have an easily identifiable visual and acoustic signal clearly perceivable at least by the driver to indicate that the inclination of the machine in any direction is approaching the maximum operating slope given in the manufacturer's instruction handbook. The triggering of the visual and acoustic signal shall be preferably performed in a graduated manner. At least, the visual signal shall be triggered at 70% of the maximum operating slope and the acoustic signal shall reach full intensity at 90% of the maximum operating slope. When travelling out of the transport position the maximum operating slope given in the manufacturer's instruction handbook and determined according to 6.1.4.2 is reached, the WPO shall have a device that stops automatically the WPO and restart of travelling and any other movement which leads to further instability shall be prevented. A tolerance of ±10% of the maximum operating slope is allowed. Movements to reduce instability shall be permitted. Restart of travelling and other movements shall be SIST EN 16952:2018

in an orchard in order to avoid unexpected deterioration (e.g. due to frost, humidity). For attaching of a tow bar a coupling device shall be provided. Attachment points for tying down shall be provided; if specified by the manufacturer, the wheels axles of the machine can be used as attachment points for tying down. For towing the machine in case of a failure, provisions shall be available (e.g. a means of releasing an automatically applied brake). 5.3.5 WPOs shall be stable during travelling both in transport and extended position. The extended position shall be verified as specified in 6.1.4.2. WPOs shall also be stable while travelling on a horizontal surface in all working positions. This requirement is met if the WPO does not become unstable during the kerb and depression tests (6.1.4.2.6.2). If elevators for the bin are fitted on the chassis, longitudinal stability of the WPO shall be ensured during all phases of their operation. 5.3.6 WPOs shall be equipped with a device to prevent unauthorised use (e.g. lockable switch). 5.3.7 Compliance with the required travel speed limits when the work platform is out of the transport position, shall be achieved automatically. It shall not be possible to exceed the travel speed of 0,7 m/s with work platforms out of the transport position. The device to limit the speed shall be in accordance with 5.11. When the load on the platform does not exceed the rated load as defined in A.3.1 minus the weight of all the permitted full bins then a travel speed up to 1,4 m/s is allowed; all the other vertical loads (persons and
tools) shall be taken into account. This shall be ensured by an automatic control system limiting the speed according to the measured load on the platform. The system shall be in accordance with 5.11. SIST EN 16952:2018

[m] 0,35 0,5 0,7 1 1,4 2 3,6 5 5.3.9 Guards shall comply with EN 15811. They shall be provided to prevent persons at control positions, or standing adjacent to the WPO at ground level or at other points of access, touching hot parts or dangerous parts of drive systems, both when the platform is in and out of the transport position. Opening or removal of these guards shall only be possible by devices located in fully enclosed and lockable enclosures (e.g. cabs, compartments) or by the use of tools or keys provided with the WPO. When it is foreseen (e.g. routine maintenance) that the fixed guards will be removed regularly then the fastenings shall remain attached to the guards or to the machine. 5.3.10 The exhaust from internal combustion engines shall be directed away from the driver's station and all working operator's positions as defined by the manufacturer. 5.3.11 The filling points of fluid reservoirs (other than for fire resistant fluids) shall be positioned to avoid any fire from overfilling or spillage onto very hot parts (e.g. engine exhausts). Information about fuel and hydraulic oil levels shall be given in a safe position close to the filling point or the operator station if this is not possible. 5.3.12 Any control position at the base or ground level shall provide the operator with visual contact with the resulting movements where these might create a hazard. 5.3.13 Batteries and containers of all WPOs shall be constrained to prevent displacement which gives rise to danger. Means shall be provided so that in the event of overturning the battery assembly will be constrained, so as to avoid the risk of injury to the operator which could occur by the battery being displaced or electrolyte being ejected. Suitable ventilation holes shall be provided in the b
