This document, when used together with ISO 4254-1, specifies the safety requirements and their
verification for the design and construction of trailed and self-propelled harvesters for grapes, olives
and coffee.
It describes methods for the elimination or reduction of hazards arising from the intended use of these
machines by one person (the operator) in the course of normal operation and service.
In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working practices to be provided by the

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

Introduction
This document is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100:2010.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the
market players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (for example trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, for example for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in the case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document.
The machinery and systems concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or
hazardous events are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or B
standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the
other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this
type-C standard.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are
covered are indicated in the Scope of this document. These hazards are specific to combine harvesters,
forage harvesters, cotton harvesters and sugar cane harvesters.
Significant hazards that are common to all the agricultural machines (self-propelled ride-on, mounted,
semi-mounted and trailed) are dealt with in ISO 4254-1:2013 and ISO 4254-1:2013/AMD1:2021.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 4254-20:2022(E)
Agricultural machinery — Safety —
Part 20:
Grape, olives and coffee harvesters
1 Scope
This document, when used together with ISO 4254-1:2013 and ISO 4254-1:2013/AMD1: 2021, specifies
the safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of trailed and self-
propelled harvesters for grapes, olives and coffee. It describes methods for the elimination or reduction
of hazards arising from the intended use of these machines by one person (the operator) in the course of
normal operation and service. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working practices
to be provided by the manufacturer.
When provisions of this document are different from those which are stated in ISO 4254-1:2013 and
ISO 4254-1:2013/AMD1: 2021, the provisions of this document take precedence over the provisions
of ISO 4254-1:2013 and ISO 4254-1:2013/AMD1: 2021 for machines that have been designed and built
according to the provisions of this document.
This document, taken together with ISO 4254-1:2013 and ISO 4254-1:2013/AMD1: 2021, deals with
all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to trailed and self-propelled
harvesters for grapes, olives and coffee, when they are used as intended and under the conditions of
misuse that are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer. It is not applicable to hazards arising from
the presence of persons other than the operator, hazards related to vibrations and moving parts for
power transmission, except for strength requirements for guards and barriers.
This document does not deal with environmental hazards, except noise.
In respect of steering of self-propelled machines, it is applicable only to the ergonomic aspects (for
example location of the steering wheel); no other aspects related to steering are covered.
NOTE Specific requirements related to road traffic regulations are not taken into account in this document.
This document is not applicable to machines manufactured before the date of its publication.
