This ejection outlet shall be fitted with: a protective device composed of: a) on the top, an imperforate guard which extends beyond the outer part of the conveyor by a minimum of 150 mm (see Figure 2). When a conveyor belt is used, the lower edge of the top guard shall be placed at 200 mm maximum above the upper plane of the conveyor belt (see Figure 3); b) at the outer point of the conveyor: when an auger is used, a fixed guard, the lower end of which shall extend at least
50 mm below the axis of the screw (see Figure 2); when a conveyor belt is used, a barrier located in the horizontal plane at 150 mm minimum from any mobile part of the conveyor and in the vertical plane at 200 mm maximum above the upper plane of the conveyor belt (see Figure 4). The lateral part of the conveying belt shall be guarded against unintentional contact in accordance with 5.1 of prEN 620:1998. or a mobile guard which completely seals the ejection outlet and automatically returns to the closed position when no more material is ejected (see Figure 5).

The lateral part of conveying belts shall be guarded against unintentional contact in accordance with 5.1 of
prEN 620:1998. 4.6.2 Rollers The rotating parts of cleaning rollers, haulm stripping devices, clod and stone removal devices shall be guarded against contact from above and on the sides by: fixed guards (according to 3.22.1 of EN 292-1:1991) if they do not need to be opened for cleaning and for clearing blockages; or fixed guards needing a tool for their opening. These guards shall remain attached to the machine when opened (for example by means of hinges) and automatically lock in the closed position without the use of a tool; or interlocking movable guards (according to 3.22.4 of EN 292-1:1991); or movable guards fitted with a device which prevents their opening so long as the parts are moving. The side guards shall extend below the moving parts for a distance of at least 120 mm. NOTE Requirements for removing blockages will be added in a future revision of this standard. Some suggestions for the prevention of hazards related to blockages and removal of blockages are given in Annex C for information.

This requirement is checked in the following conditions: the machine is placed on a slope of 5°, with its longitudinal axis positioned across the slope; in the case of lateral tipping, the tipping shall be directed down slope; in the case of rear tipping, the machine shall be placed successively up the slope and across the slope; when the hopper is lifted and tilted at its maximum position, a vertical force equal to half of the load capacity of the hopper is applied downwards at the centre of the hopper. In the case of high-tip hopper machines, when the hopper is lifted at its highest position and not tilted, a vertical force equal to the load capacity of the hopper is applied at the centre of the hopper. 4.9 Unloading device The machine shall be so designed that the operator can supervise the unloading process from the driver's station. Mechanical supports complying with 4.1.7.3 of EN1553:1999 shall be provided in order to enable maintenance and service operations to be carried out by the operator under unloading devices in raised position. It shall be possible for the operator to fit and remove the mechanical supports from outside the hazard zone. The unloading devices shall be supplied with a device to lock them in the transport position if the risk exists that the unloading device moves from its transport position.
NOTE Additional requirements and/or test method on locking devices will be added in a future revision of the standard.
5 Verification of the safety requirements and/or measures Values, where required, shall be verified by measurements. Controls shall be verified by a functional test and positional measurements; guards by functional test. 6 Information for use 6.1 Instruction handbook Comprehensive instructions and information on all aspects of maintenance and the safe use of the machine shall be provided in the instruction handbook. It shall comply with 5.5 of EN 292-2:1991. In particular, the following points shall be emphasized: a) the hazards of stones being ejected from the front of the haulm chopping device; b) residual hazards caused by operating mobile elements; c) the hazards related to lack of stability when working due to conditions of soil; d) that the machine travel and powered parts shall be stopped before any intervention; e) the tools (provided with the machine) to be used and the instructions to be followed for clearing blockages (including a reminder that engine shall be turned off first before any manual clearing of blockages); SIST EN 13118:2001+A1:2009
