Foreword
This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 98 "Lifting
platforms", the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication
of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by January 2002, and conflicting national
standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by January 2002.
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of
EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of
this standard.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations
of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium,
Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy,
Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United
Kingdom.
0 Introduction
The object of this European Standard is to define rules for safeguarding persons and objects
against the risk of accidents associated with the operation of Mobile Elevating Work
Platforms (MEWPs).
- This European Standard does not repeat all the general technical rules applicable to every
electrical, mechanical or structural component.
- The safety requirements of this European Standard have been drawn up on the basis that
MEWPs are periodically maintained according to manufacturers' instructions, working
conditions, frequency of use and national regulations.
It is also assumed that MEWPs are checked for function daily before start of work and are
not put into operation unless all required control- and safety-devices are available and in
working order.
If a MEWP is seldom used, the checks may be made before start of work.
Furthermore it is assumed that persons on the work platform in case of power supply
failure are not incapacitated and can assist in the operation of the overriding emergency
device.
- As far as possible this European Standard sets out only the requirements that materials
and equipment have to meet in the interest of safety, and it is assumed that persons
operating MEWPs are adequately trained.
- Where for clarity an example of a safety measure is given in the text, this shall not be
considered as the only possible solution. Any other solution leading to the same risk
reduction is permissible if an equivalent level of safety is achieved.
- As no satisfactory explanation could be found for the dynamic factors used for stability
calculations in previous national standards, the results of the tests carried out by the former
CEN/TC98/WG1 to determine a suitable factor and stability calculation method for
MEWPs have been adopted. The test method is described in annex B (informative) as a
guide for manufacturers wishing to use higher or lower operating speeds and to take
advantage of developments in control systems.
Similarly, to avoid the unexplained inconsistencies in coefficients of utilisation for wire
ropes found in other standards for lifting devices, appropriate extracts of the widely
accepted standard DIN 15020 have been taken into 5.4.2 and annex C (normative) with a
worked example in annex D (informative).
1 Scope
1.1 This European Standard specifies technical safety requirements and measures for all types
and sizes of Mobile Elevating Work Platform (MEWP) intended to move persons to working
positions where they are carrying out work from the work platform (WP) with the intention
that persons are getting on and off the work platform at one defined access position.
1.2 This European Standard is applicable to the structural design calculations and stability
criteria, construction, safety examinations and tests before MEWPs are first put into service. It
identifies the hazards arising from the use of MEWPs and describes methods for the
elimination or reduction of these hazards.
It does not cover the hazards arising from:
a) operation by radio and other wire-less controls;
b) use in potentially explosive atmospheres;
c) electromagnetic incompatibility;
d) work on live electric systems;
e) use of compressed gases for load bearing components;
f) getting on and off the work platform at changing levels.
1.3 This European standard does not apply to:
a) permanently installed personnel lifting appliances serving defined levels (see e.g. EN 81-
1:1998 and EN 81-2:1998);
b) fire-fighting and fire rescue appliances (see e.g. prEN 1777:1994);
c) unguided work cages suspended from lifting appliances (see e.g. EN 1808:1999);
d) elevating operator position on rail dependent storage and retrieval equipment (see
EN 528:1996);
e) tail lifts (see prEN 1756-1:1994 and prEN 1756-2:1997);
f) mast climbing work platforms (see EN 1495:1997);
g) fairground equipment;
h) lifting tables with a lifting height of less than 2 m (see EN 1570:1998);
i) builders hoists for persons and materials (see prEN 12159:1995);
j) aircraft ground support equipment (see e.g. prEN 1915-1 and 2:1995);
k) elevating operator positions on industrial trucks (see prEN 1726-2:1999).
1.4 Classification
MEWPs are divided into two main groups:
Group A: MEWPs where the vertical projection of the centre of gravity of the load is always
inside the tipping lines.
Group B: MEWPs where the vertical projection of the centre of gravity of the load may be
outside the tipping lines.
Relating to travelling, MEWPs are divided into three types:
type 1 Travelling is only allowed with the MEWP in its transport position;
type 2 Travelling with raised work platform is controlled from a point of control at the
chassis;
type 3 Travelling with raised work platform is controlled from a point of control at the
work platform.
NOTE: The types 2 and 3 can be combined
1.5 This standard applies to machines which are manufactured 12 months after publication of
this standard.
