Earth-moving machinery and rough-terrain variable-reach trucks — Design requirements for machines intended to be driven on road
ISO 17253:2014 specifies the requirements for seated-operator, ride-on, earth-moving machinery, as defined in ISO 6165, and rough-terrain variable-reach trucks, as defined in ISO 10896‑1, intended to be driven on public roads. It specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks arising from the significant hazards, hazardous situations, and hazardous events when these machines are driven on-road. It is not applicable to machines on legs, e.g. walking excavators, to hazards related to standing-operator (ride-on or non-riding) or remote-control earth-moving machines/rough-terrain variable-reach trucks, to user requirements including training, operator licensing and machine taxation, to local use restrictions such as road/bridge capacities, or to environmental requirements such as engine emissions, noise, refrigerants or recyclability.

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. Each 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, governmental 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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

Introduction
This International Standard is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations, or hazardous events
are covered are indicated in the Scope of this International Standard.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which that are stated in type-A or
type-B standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of
the other International Standard standards for machines that have been designed and built according to
the requirements of this type-C standard.
Earth-moving machinery and rough-terrain variable reach trucks are occasionally driven on the road
to and from, and around the confines of marked jobsites and share the road with other road vehicle
users. Design and verification for safety on the jobsite are subject to ISO 20474 and ISO 10896-1, but
requirements for use on the road are undefined or covered in regional and local legislation, rules, or
codes of practice. Such a situation presents lacking and differing requirements, despite a common
objective: the safety of the machine when used on the road.
The purpose of this International Standard is to provide design and verification requirements to ensure
a consistent level of safety when earth-moving machinery and rough-terrain variable-reach trucks are
used on the road.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17253:2014(E)
Earth-moving machinery and rough-terrain variable-reach
trucks — Design requirements for machines intended to
be driven on road
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the requirements for seated-operator, ride-on, earth-moving
machinery, as defined in ISO 6165, and rough-terrain variable-reach trucks, as defined in ISO 10896-1,
intended to be driven on public roads.
It specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks arising from the significant
hazards, hazardous situations, and hazardous events when these machines are driven on road.
It is not applicable to the following:
— machines on legs, e.g. walking excavators;
— hazards related to standing-operator (ride-on or non-riding) or remote-control earth-moving
machines/rough-terrain variable-reach trucks;
— user requirements, including training, operator licensing, and machine taxation;
— local use restrictions, such as road/bridge capacities;
— environmental requirements, such as engine emissions, noise, refrigerants, or recyclability.
NOTE National or other regulations, which could be more stringent, can apply.
