Foreword
This document (prEN 1459-1:2014) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 150 “Industrial
Trucks - Safety”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 1459:1998+A3:2012.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
EN 1459 consists of the following parts, under the general title Rough-terrain trucks — Safety requirements
and verification:
Part 1: Variable-reach trucks
Part 2: Slewing variable-reach trucks
Part 3: Additional requirements for variable-reach trucks fitted with work platform
Part 4: Additional requirements for variable-reach trucks handling suspended loads
Part 5: Additional requirements for attachments and attachment interface
Part 6: Application of EN ISO 13849-1 to slewing and non-slewing variable-reach rough-terrain trucks

Introduction
This European Standard covers general safety requirements and the means for verification of these
requirements for rough-terrain variable-reach trucks.
For the purpose of this standard, rough-terrain variable-reach trucks are designed to transport, lift, and place
loads, and can be driven on unimproved terrain.
Trucks may also be equipped with a variety of attachments (e.g., bale spikes) and interchangeable equipment
(e.g. mowers, sweepers).
All quantities are in SI units, and this includes metric units.
Considering the technical improvements to the previous version of EN 1459, a transition period of 12 months
is permitted after the date of publication, such that manufacturers can develop their products sufficiently to
meet the requirements of this European Standard.
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this document.
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 the other standards, for machines
that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the general safety requirements of self-propelled, variable-reach, rough-
terrain trucks (hereafter referred to as trucks), articulated or rigid chassis, intended to handle loads, which are
equipped with a telescopic lifting means (pivoted boom), on which a load handling device (e.g., carriage and
fork arms) is fitted.
Fork arms are covered by this standard and are considered to be parts of the truck.
This European Standard deals with the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the
trucks when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by
the manufacturer, with the exception of hazards listed in Annex A, 1.3 and 1.4.
This European Standard does not apply to:
— slewing variable reach rough terrain trucks covered by prEN 1459-2;
— industrial variable reach trucks covered by EN ISO 3691-2;
— lorry-mounted variable reach trucks;
— variable reach trucks fitted with tilting or elevating operator position;
— mobile cranes covered by EN 13000;
— machines designed primarily for earth moving, even if their buckets and blades are replaced with forks
(see EN 474 series);
— trucks designed primarily with variable length load suspension elements (e.g., chain, ropes) from which
the load may swing freely in all directions;
— trucks fitted with personnel/work platforms, designed to move persons to elevated working positions;
— trucks designed primarily for container handling;
— trucks on tracks;
— trucks with articulated chassis;
— attachments (prEN 1459-5).
This European Standard does not address hazards linked to:
— hybrid power systems;
— gas power system;
— trucks equipped with gasoline engine;
— battery power system;
— tractor specific devices (e.g. PTO).

prEN 1459-1:2014 (E)
This European Standard does not address hazards which may occur:
a) when handling suspended loads which may swing freely (additional requirements are given in prEN 1459-
4);
b) when using trucks on public roads;
c) when operating in potentially explosive atmospheres;
d) when operating underground;
e) when towing trailers;
f) when fitted with a personnel work platform (additional requirements are given in prEN 1459-3).
This document is not applicable to trucks manufactured before the date of its publication.
