Earth-moving machinery - Safety - Part 12: Requirements for cable excavators
This part of EN 474 deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to cable excavators as defined in EN ISO 6165:2006, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
This European Standard applies also to cable excavators, their undercarriage and upper-structure, if intended for use in combination with other equipment or attachment, such as drill rigs, pile driving and extracting equipment and moving equipment (e.g. rail track, walking legs, pontoon, ship) or stationary undercarriage. This European Standard is not dealing with the specific hazards due to these additional equipment or attachment.
NOTE For these additional equipment or attachment, relevant specific European Standards should be considered where available, for example:
- for pile driving and extracting equipment: EN 996:1995;

The requirements of this part are complementarily to the common requirements formulated in EN 474-1:2006.
This part does not repeat the requirements from EN 474-1:2006, but adds or replaces the requirements for application for cable excavators.
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 the machinery in the scope.
This European Standard is not applicable to cable excavators manufactured before the date of publication of this European Standard by CEN.

Dieser Teil der EN 474 behandelt alle signifikanten Gefährdungen, Gefährdungssituationen und Gefährdungsereignisse, die auf Seilbagger entsprechend EN ISO 6165:2002 zutreffen, wenn sie bestimmungsgemäß verwendet werden. Die nach vernünftigem Ermessen für den Hersteller vorhersehbare Nutzung der Maschine außerhalb der bestimmungsgemäßen Verwendung ist ebenfalls berücksichtigt (siehe Abschnitt 4).
Dieses Dokument gilt auch für Seilbagger und ihre Unter- und Oberwagen, wenn diese in Verbindung mit anderen Arbeitsausrüstungen und Einrichtungen wie Bohr-, Ramm- und Ziehausrüstungen und Fahrwerken (z. B. Schienenfahrwerk, Schreitwerk, Ponton, Schiff) oder mit stationärem Unterbau betrieben werden sollen. Dieses Dokument behandelt nicht die speziellen Gefährdungen, die sich aus diesen zusätzlichen Ausrüstungen und Einrichtungen ergeben.
ANMERKUNG Für diese zusätzlichen Ausrüstungen und Einrichtungen sollten (soweit vorhanden) die speziellen Europäischen Normen beachtet werden, wie z. B.
- für Ramm- und Ziehgeräte: EN 996:1995;
- für Bohrgeräte: EN 791:1995.
Die Anforderungen gelten ergänzend zu den allgemeinen Anforderungen des Teil 1.
Dieser Teil wiederholt nicht die Anforderungen des Teils 1, sondern ergänzt oder ersetzt diese für den Einsatz von Seilbaggern.
Dieser Teil beschreibt die geeigneten technischen Maßnahmen, um die Risiken zu mindern oder zu beseitigen, die aufgrund signifikanter Gefährdungen, Gefährdungssituationen und Gefährdungsereignisse, die während der Inbetriebnahme, dem Betrieb, der Instandhaltung von Seilbaggern eintreten können.
Diese Europäische Norm ist nicht anzuwenden für Seilbagger, die vor der dieser Europäischen Norm durch CEN hergestellt wurden
