EN 1846-2:2001+A3:2009 (E) 4 Introduction %This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this European Standard. 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.& This part of this European Standard also deals with the performance requirements which are common to all firefighting and rescue service vehicles as defined in the scope. The noise test code considered in this part of this European Standard (see annex F) will allow experience to be gained in the measurement of noise emission in view of future revisions. 1 Scope 1.1 This part of this European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for safety and performance of firefighting and rescue service vehicles as designated in EN 1846-1:1998. NOTE 1 Categories and mass classes of these vehicles are given in EN 1846-1:1998. Firefighting and rescue service vehicles normally use a commercial chassis-cab or vehicle. A special chassis may be used for specialised vehicles to meet particular requirements. NOTE 2 Both chassis and vehicle are considered to be standard commercially available items when the manufacturer proposes them for sale in all their standard or special versions, on the basis of catalogues distributed via its commercial network, including chassis and vehicles that are manufactured solely for fire service use. Further requirements for aerial appliances are contained within other European Standards (see %EN 1777&, Hydraulic platforms for firefighting and rescue services - Safety requirements and testing, %EN 14043, High rise aerial appliances for fire service use — Turntable ladders with combined movements — Safety and performance requirements and test methods& and %EN 14044, High rise aerial appliances for fire service use — Turntable ladders with sequential movements — Safety and performance requirements and test methods)&. %NOTE 3 Additional regulations, not dealt with in this document, may apply in relation with the use of the vehicles on public roads.& For the purpose of this part of this European Standard, the normal ambient temperature range is - 15 °C to + 35 °C. NOTE 4 In the case of utilisation outside this temperature range, the particular temperature range should be specified by the customer. 1.2 This part of this European Standard does not apply to: 

It does not cover the hazards generated by: 
radiation (low frequency, radio frequency, radiation, micro-waves); 

5 Requirements Methods to verify the requirements in the following subclauses are given in the equivalent subclauses of clause 6.
Modifications or additions to the vehicle chassis-cab shall take into account any recommendations made by the chassis manufacturer. 5.1 Safety requirements and/or measures Vehicles shall comply with the safety requirements and/or measures of this subclause and in addition with
%EN ISO 12100:2003& for hazards relevant but not significant which are not dealt with in this part of this European Standard. 5.1.1 General The permanently installed equipment, the load and the locks of doors, flaps and drawers shall be firmly secured against unintended release. The locks and holding devices that are used shall be easy to open. The filler-opening of fuel tank(s) shall be designed to avoid the risk of fuel contacting any hot parts of the vehicle or equipment. For category 3 vehicles (see EN 1846-1:1998) all electrical wiring, fuel lines, brake pipes, hoses shall be protected from mechanical damage by rough ground/terrain. In cases of specific use (e.g. fire in natural environment) these components shall also be protected against direct contact with flames and incandescent particles. NOTE Electrical cables complying with HD 22-3, EN 50265-2-1:1998 and HD 586-1 are deemed to be fire resistant. %When fixed guards, or parts of the machine acting as such, are not permanently fixed e.g. by welding, their fixing systems shall remain attached to the guards or to the machinery when the guards are removed.& SIST EN 1846-2:2002+A3:2009

EN 1846-2:2001+A3:2009 (E) 17 5.1.1.3 Engine 5.1.1.3.1 General If it is possible to start the vehicle remote from the driving position, a safety interlock to prevent the vehicle moving shall be fitted. Where there is a Power Take Off (PTO) fitted, there shall be an automatic or manual provision to control the engine speed as intended by the manufacturer. Manual controls shall be located at the operating position (see 3.13). 5.1.1.3.2 Exhaust The exhaust system shall be designed and installed to protect the operator and crew from exhaust gases or burns. The temperature of readily accessible elements of the exhaust system shall not exceed 63 °C. Exhaust systems fitted to category 3 vehicles (see EN 1846-1:1998) shall be designed to prevent the release of sparks. Hot parts of the exhaust system on the underside of category 3 vehicles shall be shielded from contact with vegetation. The end of the exhaust pipe(s) shall be designed or located so that detachable exhaust couplings and/or stationary exhaust systems may be used. NOTE An example of an exhaust coupling is given in annex A. 5.1.1.4 Driven components Driven components shall not be exposed to contact by personnel during operational use. For vehicles designed for PTO operation only when stationary, a safety system shall inhibit all unintended travel movement of the vehicle. This safety system shall be automatically activated for vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox. For vehicles designed for PTO operation when mobile or stationary, moving the vehicle shall require an additional action by the driver or information shall be given at the driving position. 5.1.1.5 Axle loading The minimum and maximum permitted axle loads shall be in accordance with the values specified by the chassis manufacturer in all recommended load conditions. 5.1.1.6 Brakes NOTE European Directive 71/320/EEC, or national regulations if these are more stringent, apply to the braking system. 5.1.1.7 Tyres It shall be possible to inflate, deflate and check the tyre pressure of M.3 and S.3 vehicles (see EN 1846-1:1998) when stationary, by the use of equipment that is installed or carried by the vehicle. 5.1.1.8 Reversing of vehicle %Vehicles for which the driver has insufficient visibility to the zone behind it (directly or indirectly, e.g. with mirrors or Closed Circuit T
