Introduction
This European Standard is used to measure and evaluate the operator's visibility from unladen self-propelled
industrial trucks. This European Standard is a "Type C" standard as defined in EN ISO 12100.
This European Standard has been prepared to be a harmonized standard to provide one means for visibility
testing for self-propelled industrial trucks to conform to the essential health and safety requirements of the
Machinery Directive, as amended.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of other standards, for equipment that
have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.

1 Scope
The EN 16842 series specify requirements and test procedures of all around visibility of self-propelled
industrial trucks in accordance with ISO/DIS 5053-1 with a sit-on or stand-on operator, without load, and
equipped with fork arms or load platform.
This part of the EN 16842 series gives the common test requirements for powered industrial truck visibility
testing and is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 16842 parts 2 to x.
The truck specific requirements in EN 16842 parts 2 to x take precedence over the respective requirements of
EN 16842-1.
The requirements of the applicable part of EN 16842 take precedence over the requirements of 4.12 of
EN 16307-1.
The standard does not apply to:
— trucks with elevating operator position, when the operating position is elevated;
— rough terrain variable reach trucks – within the scope of EN 15830;
— centre controlled order picking truck (in accordance with 2.17 of ISO/DIS 5053-1);
— pallet truck end controlled (in accordance with 2.16 of ISO/DIS 5053-1).
In addition, the following trucks in normal operation have excellent all round visibility and therefore will not be
part of this series of standards:
— ride on pallet truck;
— pedestrian controlled pallet trucks.
