Abstract
This document specifies the safety requirements and associated means of verification for the design and construction of mounted, trailed and self-propelled machines for harvesting and conditioning flax. Examples of machinery and their components are given in Annex A. This document is not applicable to: — stationary machinery. — autonomous mobile machinery. NOTE: 'Autonomous mobile machinery' means mobile machinery which has an autonomous mode, in which all the essential safety functions of the mobile machinery are ensured in its travel and working operations area without permanent interaction of an operator. This document, applied in conjunction with EN ISO 4254-1:2015², deals with all the significant hazards (as listed in Table D.1), hazardous situations and events relevant to machines for harvesting and conditioning flax, when they are used by one person as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see Annex B). NOTE For traffic on public roads, national highway codes apply (e.g. braking, driving, lighting, coupling) as long as harmonised requirements are not available. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working practices including information about residual risks to be provided by the manufacturer. This document does not apply to machinery for harvesting and conditioning flax manufactured before the date of publication.
