M/398 - Agricultural Tractors

This European Standard specifies the requirements and test procedures for 360° visibility of sit-on self-propelled industrial variable reach truck and masted trucks (herein referred to as truck) specifically designed for the transport of freight containers of 6 m length and longer, equipped with a spreader in accordance with ISO 5053-1 and is intended to be used in conjunction with FprEN 16842-1.
Where specific requirements in this part are modified from the general requirements in FprEN 16842-1, the requirements of this part are truck specific and to be used for sit-on self-propelled industrial variable reach truck and masted trucks handling freight containers.
This part of EN 16842 deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events as listed in Annex ZA, Table ZA.1, relevant to the visibility of the operator for applicable machines when used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer.
This standard does not apply to trucks equipped with forks.

This European standard specifies the additional requirements in respect to radio remote control systems that are used in forestry machinery. The fundamental requirements are defined in the standard IEC 62745. Radio remote control systems for the following forestry machines are discussed in this standard:
- Forestry cable winches according to EN ISO 19472, winches with outriggers for forestry trailers, log splitters and cutting splitters as well as hauling winches;
- Self-propelled machinery for forestry according to EN ISO 11850 (machines for felling, moving and debranching, forwarders, log loaders, skidders, processors, harvesting machines, mulchers as well as multipurpose machines of these construction types, as described in ISO 6814); the definitive part of the standard defines essential requirements in respect to the driving function of the machine;
- Mobile yarders for timber logging corresponding to EN 16517;
- Log splitters and combined cutting splitters according to EN 609-1 and EN 609-2 including their support winches and circular sawing machines for fire wood corresponding to EN 1870-6;
- Chopping machines according to EN 13525 and chopping machines with mechanical feed systems for the production of woodcuts;
- Forestry cranes and similar devices that are used on self-propelled machinery for forestry according to EN 11850 and, as indicated above, for timber transport, timber loading, the loading of forestry goods or forestry products as well as for the handling and arrangement of timber full harvesters, felling attachments, machines for felling and moving, attachments, saw heads, gripper-saw combinations with or without load or similar devices and machines, insofar they are not treated in EN 12999. Forestry cranes can be a component of the forestry machine on which they are mounted.

This European standard specifies the additional requirements for cableless control systems that are used in forestry machinery. The fundamental requirements are defined in the standard prEN 62745. Cableless control systems for the following forestry machines are treated in this standard:
-   forestry cable winches according to ISO 19472, winches for log splitters;
-   self-propelled machinery for forestry according to EN ISO 11850 (machines for felling, moving and debranching, forwarders, log loaders, skidders, processors, harvesting machines, mulchers as well as multipurpose machines of these construction types, as described in ISO 6814); the definitive part of the standard defines essential requirements for the driving function of the machine;
-   mobile yarders for timber logging corresponding to prEN 16517;
-   log splitters and combined firewood splitters according to EN 609 1:2016, 5.9.2.1 Chipping machines according to EN 13525 and chipping machines with mechanical feed systems for the production of woodchips and shredding /grinding machines;
-   forestry boom loader and similar devices that are used on self-propelled machinery and trailers for forestry according to EN ISO 11850 and, as indicated above, for timber transport, timber loading, the loading of forestry goods or forestry products as well as for the handling and arrangement of timber harvesters, felling attachments, machines for felling and moving, attachments, saw heads, gripper-saw combinations with or without load or similar devices and machines, insofar they are not treated in EN 12999. Forestry boom loader can be a component of the forestry machine on which they are mounted.

This document specifies the requirements and test procedures for 360° visibility of sit-on self-propelled variable-reach trucks and masted container trucks (herein after referred to as trucks) without a load, specifically designed for the transport of freight containers of 6 m (20 ft) length and longer, in accordance with ISO 5053 1, equipped with a spreader and it is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 16842-1.
Where specific requirements in this part are modified from the general requirements in EN 16842-1, the requirements of this part are truck specific and to be used for sit-on self-propelled variable-reach trucks and masted trucks designed for transport of freight containers of 6 m (20 ft) length and longer.
