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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
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.
ISO 10896-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 110, Industrial trucks, Subcommittee SC 4,
Rough-terrain trucks.
ISO 10896 consists of the following parts, under the general title Rough-terrain trucks — Safety requirements
and verification:
— Part 1: Variable-reach trucks
Slewing trucks, lorry-mounted trucks, freely swinging loads and straight-masted trucks are to form the subjects
of future parts 2, 3, 4 and 5.

ISO 10896-1:2012(E)
Introduction
Variable-reach trucks are known by a variety of terms, including “telehandlers” and “multi-purpose handlers”.
The variable-reach rough-terrain trucks covered by this part of ISO 10896 are designed to transport loads to
and place them on elevated work areas and can be driven on unimproved or disturbed terrain.
They can also be equipped with a variety of attachments (e.g. fork arms, bale spikes) and interchangeable
equipment (e.g. mowers, sweepers).

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 10896-1:2012(E)
Rough-terrain trucks — Safety requirements and verification —
Part 1:
Variable-reach trucks
1 Scope
This part of ISO 10896 specifies general safety requirements for non-slewing, variable-reach rough-terrain
trucks (hereafter known as “trucks”), with an articulated or rigid chassis and equipped with a telescopic lifting
means (pivoting boom) on which a load-handling device such as a carriage with fork arms is typically fitted.
Fork arms and other integrated attachments are considered to be parts of the truck.
Other standards, in addition to the relevant provisions of this part of ISO 10896, can apply to the attachments.
This part of ISO 10896 is not applicable to the following:
a) industrial variable-reach trucks covered by ISO 3691-2;
b) machines designed primarily for earth-moving, such as loaders, even if their buckets are replaced by fork
arms (see ISO 20474);
c) trucks designed primarily with variable-length load suspension elements (e.g. chain, ropes) from which the
1)
load may swing freely in all directions (mobile cranes) ;
2
d) trucks fitted with personnel/work platforms, designed to move persons to elevated working positions ;
e) trucks designed primarily for container handling.
The significant hazards covered by this part of ISO 10896 are listed in Annex A. This part of ISO 10896 does
not address hazards that can occur
— during manufacture,
— when handling suspended loads, which may swing freely,
— when using trucks on public roads,
— when operating in potentially explosive atmospheres, or
— with a battery, LPG or hybrid as the primary power source.

be as follows:
a) easy to access from the operator’s position;
b) clearly identified, indelible and visible in the operator’s station; if appropriate, graphical symbols in
accordance with ISO 7000 may be used and shall be described in the operator’s manual (see 6.2);
