Agricultural machinery - Front loaders - Safety
Abstract
This document specifies safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of front loaders designed to be mounted on agricultural and forestry wheeled tractors (as defined in the Regulation EU 167/2013). It describes methods for the elimination or reduction of risks which need specific requirements including such risks arising from misuse, reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working practices to be provided by the manufacturer. Hazards related to mounting the lifting arms to the frame mounted on the tractor, and also hazards related to devices for mounting attachments to the arm are covered. Hazards related to mounting the frame to the tractor (carried out by the dealer of the loader and/or of the tractor), the mounted attachments and hazards due to loss of mechanical strength of the structure are excluded.
