Road operation machinery - Safety - Part 1: General requirements
This document specifies the common safety requirements for road operation machinery.
This document deals with the significant hazards common to road operation machinery, 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 (transport, assembly, dismantling, equipment in service and out of service, maintenance, moving on site, storage, disabling and scrapping).
NOTE The requirements specified in this part of the standard are common to two or more families of road operation machinery.
This document gives safety requirements for all types of road operation machinery and shall be used in conjunction with one of parts x to xx.
These machine specific parts do not repeat the requirements from part 1 but supplement or modify the requirements for the type of road operation machinery in question.
This European Standard applies to:
a) Road surface cleaning machines (as currently defined in EN 15429-1);
b) Winter service machines (as defined in group 1 and 2 of EN 15144);
c) Road service area maintenance machines for:
grass cutting (see Clause 3.1.1.1 of EN 15436-1:2008);
brush/hedge cutting (see Clause 3.1.1.2 of EN 15436-1:2008);
mechanical plant/branch cutting (see Clauses 3.1.2 and 3.2.3 of EN 15436-1:2008).
This standard deals with:
a) equipment permanently mounted on carrier vehicles;
b) interchangeable equipment;
c) self-propelled machinery with an integrated specially designed chassis;
d) trailed machines;
e) interfaces.
For multipurpose machinery the parts of the standard that cover the specific functions and applications have to be used, e.g. sweeper used for spreading thawing material or snow removing machines with brooms and ploughs shall use the relevant requirements of prEN xxx parts x, x, x.
Road operation machinery within the scope of prEN xxx parts x to x may include interchangeable auxiliary equipment within the scope of prEN xxx part x either as an integral part of its construction or as interchangeably fitted equipment.

4 Safety requirements and/or protective/risk reduction measures
4.1 Safety requirements and/or protective/risk reduction measures applicable to all
machines
4.1.1 General
Road operation shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protective/risk reduction measures of
this clause, unless modified by requirements of the relevant specific part of the standard series. In
addition, the machine shall be designed according to the principles of EN ISO 12100:2010 for relevant
but not significant hazards which are not dealt with by this document.
4.1.2 Noise
4.1.2.1 Noise reduction by design
4.1.2.1.1 Noise reduction at source
Machines shall be so designed and constructed that risks resulting from the emission of airborne noise
are reduced to the lowest possible level, taking account of technical progress and the availability of means
of reducing noise, in particularly, at source.
The available information and technical measures for reducing noise at source (see for example
EN ISO 11688-1:2009) shall be taken into account in the design.
NOTE 1 EN ISO 11688-2 provides useful information on noise generation mechanisms in machinery.
NOTE 2 Noise generation may vary considerably between machinery types. Noise reduction measures are
therefore dealt with in product specific standards.
4.1.2.1.2 Noise reduction by protective measures
The following measures - if practicable - are among those that are suitable:
— a cab;
— encapsulation of the engine(s);
— exhaust silencer.
NOTE Guidelines for the design of enclosures can be found in EN ISO 15667.
4.1.2.2 Noise reduction by information
The operating instructions shall contain information on residual risks associated with noise (see 6.3.2).
4.1.2.3 Noise measurement and declaration
In order to quantify the residual risk for noise, the measurement of the sound power and the emission
sound pressure level at the operator's position shall be carried out in accordance with Annex B and the
results shall be stated in the operator’s manual.
4.1.3 Visibility
4.1.3.1 General
Visibility from the operating positions shall be such that the operator can operate the machine safely
when used in its foreseen conditions and its intended use with regard to themselves and other persons
and operating positions adjacent to the machine.
When it is necessary to aid visibility of the working area and equipment, additional visual aids shall be
provided.
Appropriate illumination of the working area shall be provided, either by integrated lighting system or
by lighting system installed on the carrier vehicle.
4.1.3.2 Closed circuit television system
If a closed-circuit television system (CCTV) is fitted, it shall meet the following requirements:
The minimum size of the monitor screen sector for the rear view shall be 12,7 cm (approx. 5 inches)
diagonal (for example 4:3 or 16:9 format). The screen sector can be used for other purposes, but in the
case of driving backwards the screen sector shall show only the view to the back.
NOTE 1 Requirements for the installation of the monitor are given in the road safety regulations and truck cabin
manufacturer guidelines.
NOTE 2 The described CCTV systems are not related to road safety requirements.
4.1.3.3 Visibility measurement
The field of vision shall be verified according to the measurement procedure of ISO 5006:2017.
For visibility measurements according to ISO 5006:2017, the travel mode as defined by the manufacturer
shall be used.
It is sufficient to measure the machine with the most challenging standard attachment within the limits
of the intended use.
Specific testing conditions and acceptance criteria are provided in parts 2 to 4 of this series.
4.1.4 Controls and displays
4.1.4.1 General
Controls shall comply with EN ISO 6682:2008 and ISO 10968:2020, except the following clauses:
— 5.1.5;
— 5.1.8 last sentence.
NOTE ISO 15077 contains equivalent requirements to ISO 10968:2020 (e.g. minimum forces for actuating
controls).
The minimum distance between finger, hand- and foot-operated controls, or between these types of
control and other machine parts, shall be as in Table 1:
Table 1 — Minimum distance between centre line of two adjacent controls
Type of control Minimum distance
Hand operated controls 40 mm
