The standard provides harmonised expressions/characteristic parameters by means of which operators can specify the above-mentioned equipment's performance to suppliers. The standard also describes procedures for testing delivered equipment's compliance with operator requirements. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 15436-1:2008, Road service area maintenance equipment – Part 1: Terminology EN 15436-2, Road service area maintenance equipment – Part 2: Performance assessment 3 Terms and definitions This document makes use of the expressions defined by EN 15436-1:2008 for describing machine groups and components. Dimensions and performance specifications provided by EN 15436-1:2008 do not apply here. Exceptions are referred to in this standard. 3.1 mowing strip width-dependent area to be mowed by a machine in any one operation parallel to the carrier vehicle's direction of motion 3.2 trimming strip width-dependent area to be trimmed by a machine in any one operation parallel to the carrier vehicle's direction of motion 3.3 mowing/trimming plane assumed, planar, post-mowing/post-trimming, overgrown surface over which the mowing/trimming machine is routed (vertical trimming line) 3.4 central plane vehicle's central, longitudinal plane with respect to the rolling track (Figure 1) SIST EN 15436-4:2009

The operator's seat is located in the middle position. If the operator seat is not aligned with the vehicle's direction of motion the middle position is also to be taken as the reference line. Should the carrier vehicle be unknown this data does not apply (Figure 2)

EN 15436-4:2009 (E) 6 4 Performance specifications 4.1 Specifications for mowers/mechanical branch cutters  Post-mowing/post-trimming width: corresponding to EN 15436-1 [in cm].  Mowing/trimming height: corresponding to EN 15436-1 [in cm].  Quality of the mowing: admissible number of parts of plants in a defined area which are not mowed or which are longer than the mowing height.  Length of the mowed/trimmed material (chaff function): length of the mowed/trimmed vegetation [in cm].  Distance to obstructions (design of the mowing/trimming device): the minimum distance to be attained to obstructions (e.g. posts, walls) during mowing/trimming (see Figure 3). The user shall specify how the mowing/trimming device is to avoid obstructions and, if necessary, bypass them from the front or behind transversely with respect to the mowing/trimming direction.
Key A Direction of mowing B Obstruction C Admissible area, which shall not be mowed D Admissible distance between end of mowing and obstruction E Admissible distance between mowing strip and obstruction F Admissible distance between beginning of mowing and obstruction G Accomplishable angle H Cutting device Figure 3 — View from top SIST EN 15436-4:2009



EN 15436-4:2009 (E) 7 4.2 Kinematic parameters/ranges 4.2.1 General Kinematic specifications for mowing and trimming machines apply in the mounted state on a carrier vehicle. All stipulated geometric dimensions apply with the carrier vehicle positioned on a level horizontal surface with a maximum inclination of 1 % (base plane). The user's kinematic specifications/ranges for the supplier shall also indicate whether the work is to be performed on the right-hand side, left-hand side or both sides of the direction of travel. 4.2.2 Obstructions and clearances  Obstructions behind which mowing is required. The ability to mow strips is influenced by obstructions such as protective barriers, traffic signs etc. If an obstruction cannot be avoided, the kinematics shall allow the mowing/trimming device to pass above the obstruction. The obstruction to be bypassed from above is to be specified as a linear envelope comprising the corner coordinates Bx and Lx with respect to the central or base plane (refer to t
