–   transportne vozičke z ograjo, navedene v delih od 1 do 4 standarda EN 12674 (CEN/TC 261);
–   vozila, namenjena vleki z gnanimi vozili (npr. vlečna skladiščna vozila – »milk-run«).
1.3   Ta standard obravnava tehnične zahteve za zmanjšanje nevarnosti iz točke 4, ki se lahko pojavijo med    zagonom, obratovanjem in vzdrževanjem vozil, kadar se ti postopki izvajajo v skladu s specifikacijami    proizvajalca.
1.4   Ta standard ne določa dodatnih zahtev za:
–   obratovanje v zahtevnih razmerah (npr. izjemni okoljski pogoji, kot so zmrzal, visoke temperature,    korozivno okolje);
–   obratovanje, pri katerem veljajo posebna pravila (npr. potencialno eksplozivne atmosfere);
–   ravnanje s tovori, ki lahko povzročijo nevarne razmere (npr. taljena kovina, kisline/baze, sevajoči    materiali, posebej krhki tovori);
–   nevarnosti, ki se pojavijo med gradnjo, prevozom, prenehanjem uporabe in odstranitvijo;
–   neposreden stik z živili;
–   obratovanje na pobočjih ali površinah, ki niso gladke, ravne in trdne;
–   vozila, zasnovana za posebne primere rabe (npr. v bolnišnicah, vozički za strežbo);
