This part of EN ISO 3691 gives safety requirements and the means for their verification for driverless
industrial trucks (hereafter referred to as trucks) and their systems.
It is not applicable to trucks solely guided by mechanical means (rails, guides, etc.).
For the purposes of this part of EN ISO 3691, a driverless industrial truck is a powered vehicle, including any
trailer, which is designed to travel automatically and for which the safety of operation does not depend on
an operator. Remote-controlled trucks are not considered to be driverless trucks. A truck's system
comprises the control system, which may be part of the truck and/or separate from it, guidance means and
power system. Specific requirements for power sources other than batteries (e.g hydrogen fuel cells,
internal combustion engines) are not covered in this standard. Some trucks may also follow the
requirements of EN ISO 3691-1.
The condition of the operating area has a significant effect on the safe operation of the driverless industrial
truck. The preparations of the operating area to eliminate the associated hazards are specified in Annex
A.
This part of EN ISO 3691 deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events,
as listed in Annex B, with the exception of the following, relevant to the applicable machines when
used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the
manufacturer.
It does not establish requirements for hazards that can occur
during operation in severe conditions (e.g. extreme climates, freezer applications, strong magnetic
fields),
during operation in environments subject to special rules (e.g. potentially explosive atmospheres),
during the transportation of passengers other than a trained operator,
when handling loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. molten metals,
acids/bases, radiating materials),
from parts of trucks requiring manual intervention during operation,
from trucks intended to operate in areas open to persons unaware of the hazards.
Regional requirements, additional to the requirements given in this part of EN ISO 3691, are addressed
in ISO/TS 3691-7 and ISO/TS 3691-8.

This standard establishes general principles for the care and maintenance, and inspection and discard of steel wire ropes used on cranes and hoists. In addition to guidance on storage, handling, installation and maintenance, this document provides discard criteria for those running ropes which are subjected to multi-layer spooling, where both field experience and testing demonstrate that deterioration is significantly greater at the crossover zones on the drum than at any other section of rope in the system. It also provides more realistic discard criteria covering decreases in rope diameter and corrosion, and gives a method for assessing the combined effect of deterioration at any position in the rope. This document is applicable to those ropes used on the following types of cranes, the majority of which are defined in ISO 4306-1: a) cable and portal cable cranes; b) cantilever cranes (pillar jib, wall or walking); c) deck cranes; d) derrick and guy derrick cranes; e) derrick cranes with rigid bracing; f) floating cranes; g) mobile cranes; h) overhead travelling cranes; i) portal or semi-portal bridge cranes; j) portal or semi-portal cranes; k) railway cranes; l) tower cranes; m) offshore cranes, i.e. cranes mounted on a fixed structure supported by the sea bed or on a floating unit supported by buoyancy forces.

1.1   This European Standard gives rules for improving existing lifts with the aim of reaching today's state of the art of general safety.
NOTE   Due to situations such as the building design etc. it may not be possible in all cases to reach today's state of the art.
1.2   This standard has taken into consideration safety requirements of the directives listed in the Bibliography and of EN 81 series of the safety standards for lifts.
NOTE   The EN 81-series of standards for particular applications can be used as a basis for improving safety of existing lifts, providing they have been officially accepted. However, not all clauses may apply or be "reasonably practicable" (see note to 1.3).
1.3   It is the responsibility of each national authority to apply this standard and to determine its own programme of implementation in a step by step process (see Annex A (normative)) in a reasonable and practicable way based on :
¾ the level of risk (e.g. extreme, high, medium, low) ;
¾ social and economic considerations.
NOTE   "Reasonably practicable" is defined as follows : "In deciding what is reasonably practicable the seriousness of risk to injury should be weighted against the difficulty and cost of removing or reducing that risk. In considering the cost no allowance should be made for the size, nature or profitability of the business concerned. Where the difficulty and costs are high, and a careful assessment of the risk shows it to be comparatively unimportant, action may not need to be taken. On the other hand where the risk is high, action should be taken at whatever cost".
1.4   This standard includes the improvement of safety for :
a) users of passenger and goods passenger lifts ;
b) lift maintenance and inspection personnel ;
c) persons outside the well, machine room and the pulley room (if any) ;
