ISO 4197:1989

Equipment for working the soil - Hoe blades - Fixing dimensions

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (1981). Specifies the dimensions of hoe blades with working width up to and including 220 mm. Figure 1 illustrates the contours, dimensions and holes.

Overview

ISO 4197:1989, "Equipment for working the soil - Hoe blades - Fixing dimensions," is the second edition (1989) of an ISO standard prepared by ISO/TC 23 (Tractors and machinery for agriculture and forestry). It cancels and replaces ISO 4197:1981 and specifies the standard fixing dimensions for hoe blades with a working width up to and including 220 mm. The standard presents contours, hole locations and dimensional data in millimetres (illustrated in Figure 1).

Key Topics

• Scope: Fixing dimensions for hoe blades used in tillage and soil-working equipment, applicable to blades up to 220 mm working width.
• Fixing geometry: Standardized positions and arrangements of mounting holes and related dimensions as shown in Figure 1.
• Units: All dimensions are given in millimetres.
• Contour guidance: Broken-line contours in the figure are provided for dimensional reference only.
• Hole options: The blade may feature either the lower hole or both lower holes where illustrated (i.e., some hole locations are optional as noted in the figure).
• Technical authority: Developed under ISO technical committee ISO/TC 23 (agricultural and forestry machinery), ensuring industry relevance and international consensus.

Applications

ISO 4197 is practical for anyone involved in the design, manufacture, procurement and maintenance of tillage tools and cultivator attachments:

• Manufacturers of hoe blades and cultivator tines use the standard to design parts that are mutually compatible and easily replaced.
• OEMs (agricultural machinery producers) integrate standardized blades into cultivators, hoes and seedbed preparation equipment.
• Spare‑parts suppliers and distributors rely on uniform fixing dimensions to guarantee interchangeability and reduce inventory complexity.
• Maintenance and service engineers benefit from consistent mounting arrangements for quicker field repairs and part sourcing.
• Procurement and quality teams use the standard to specify acceptance criteria and dimensional conformity.

Related standards

ISO 4197 complements other international standards for agricultural machinery and soil-working implements developed under ISO/TC 23. When specifying or sourcing hoe blades, consider cross-referencing broader ISO requirements for cultivators, tillage implements and machine safety where applicable.

Keywords: ISO 4197, hoe blade fixing dimensions, equipment for working the soil, hoe blade dimensions, agricultural machinery, tillage equipment, cultivator blades, ISO/TC 23, interchangeability.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International
Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Esch member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all
matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the ISO Council. They are approved in accordance with ISO procedures requiring at
least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting.
International Standard ISO 4197 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 23,
Trattors and machinery for agriculture and forestry.

Avant-propos
L’ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale
d’organismes nationaux de normalisation (comités membres de I’ISO). L’élaboration
des Normes internationales est en général confiée aux comités techniques de I’ISO.
Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du comité
technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non
gouvernementales, en liaison avec I’ISO participent également aux travaux. L’ISO col-
labore étroitement avec la Commission électrotechnique internationale KEI) en ce qui
concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les projets de Normes internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis
aux comités membres pour approbation, avant leur acceptation comme Normes inter-
nationales par le Conseil de I’ISO. Les Normes internationales sont approuvées confor-
mément aux procédures de I’ISO qui requiérent l’approbation de 75 % au moins des
comités membres votants.
La Norme internationale ISO 4197 a été élaborée par le comité technique ISO/TC 23,
Tracteurs et ma tbriels agricoles et fores tiers.
