assessment has shown that for dumpers the corresponding hazard does not exist. Therefore, for dumpers
4.12, 4.21, Annex B and Annex C in EN 474-1:2022, are not applicable.
4.2 Operator’s station

Introduction
This part of prEN 474 is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and 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 document, together with part 1, deals with all significant hazards for earth-moving machinery –
dumpers when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably
foreseeable by the manufacturer associated with the whole life time of the machine (see Clause 4).
The requirements of this part are complementary to the common requirements formulated in
prEN 474-1. This document does not repeat the requirements from prEN 474-1, but adds or replaces
the requirements for application for earth moving machinery – dumpers.
This document is not applicable to dumpers manufactured before the date of publication of this
European Standard by CEN.
This part does not repeat the requirements from prEN 474-1:2017, but adds or replaces the
requirements for application for dumpers.
This part specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks arising from the
significant hazards, hazardous situations and events during commissioning, operation and maintenance
of dumpers.
Pedestrian controlled dumpers are excluded from scope of this European Standard.
This European Standard is not applicable to dumpers, manufactured before the date of publication of
this European Standard by CEN.
