Winter service machines - Safety requirements
This European Standard applies to winter service machines which are defined in clause 3.
This European Standard deals with all significant hazards (see clause 4) identified through a risk assessment pertinent to winter service machines when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer. This European Standard does not deal with significant hazards associated with EMC.
This European Standard specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks arising from the significant hazards associated only with machine operation, setting and adjustments, load discharge and routine maintenance.
Winter service machines are normally mounted on carrier vehicles (e.g. trucks, tractors, construction machinery and mobile industrial handling equipment). This European Standard does not cover requirements for the carrier vehicles even where specific modifications have been made to realise the winter service application. These requirements will be handled in directives and standards for the construction of carrier vehicles. The use of winter service machines in public road traffic is governed by national regulations.
This standard does not cover any requirements for demountable bodywork systems (e.g. demountable containers). These requirements are specified in other standards.
This European Standard does not deal with:
- machines or components which are solely designed for clearing rails such as rail sweepers or blowers;
- walker-operated and hand-held winter service machines;
- highway maintenance machines covered by EN 13524, such as front-mounted sweepers;
- machines for the maintenance of sports grounds;
- machines for agriculture, horticulture and forestry;
- machines intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
This European Standard applies to winter service machines which are manufactured after the date of approval of the standard by CEN.
Maschinen für den Winterdienst - Sicherheitsanforderungen
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Maschinen für den Winterdienst, die im Abschnitt 3 definiert sind.
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt alle anhand einer Risikobeurteilung festgestellten signifikanten Gefährdungen (siehe Abschnitt 4), die von Maschinen für den Winterdienst ausgehen, wenn sie bestimmungsgemäß entsprechend den Empfehlungen des Herstellers verwendet werden. Diese Europäische Norm behandelt nicht signifikante Gefährdungen bezüglich !gelöschter Text" elektromagnetischer Verträglichkeit (EMV).
Diese Europäische Norm spezifiziert die entsprechenden technischen Maßnahmen zur Beseitigung oder Verminderung der Risiken, die nur von den signifikanten Gefährdungen beim Einsatz, der Einstellung, der Be- und Entladung und der Wartung der Maschine ausgehen.
Maschinen für den Winterdienst werden normalerweise auf Trägerfahrzeuge (z. B. LKW, Traktoren, Baumaschinen und Flurförderzeuge) aufgebaut oder an diese angebaut. Diese Europäische Norm behandelt nicht die technischen Anforderungen an Trägerfahrzeuge sowie deren An- und Aufbauwechselsysteme, auch wenn spezielle Anpassungen am Trägerfahrzeug zum An- oder Aufbau von Maschinen für den Winterdienst erforderlich sind. Diese werden in Richtlinien für Trägerfahrzeuge abgehandelt. Für die Teilnahme am öffentlichen Straßenverkehr gelten die nationalen Vorschriften.
Diese Norm behandelt nicht Anforderungen für An- und Aufbauwechselsysteme (z. B. Wechselbehälter). Diese Anforderungen sind in anderen Normen festgelegt.
In dieser Europäischen Norm werden nicht behandelt
Maschinen oder Komponenten, die ausschließlich für die Räumung von Gleiskörpern konstruiert sind, wie z. B. Eisenbahn-Schneepflüge oder -Schneeschleudern;
mitgängergeführte und handgehaltene Maschinen für den Winterdienst;
Maschinen für den Straßenbetriebsdienst nach !EN 13524", wie z. B. Vorbaukehrmaschinen;
Maschinen für die Pflege von Sportanlagen;
Maschinen für die Garten-, Land- und Forstwirtschaft;
Machines pour le service hivernal - Prescriptions de sécurité
La présente norme s’applique aux machines de service hivernal définies à l’article 3.
La présente norme traite tous les phénomènes dangereux significatifs (voir article 4) identifiés au cours de l’estimation des risques spécifiques aux matériels du service hivernal lorsqu’ils sont utilisés normalement et dans les conditions prévues par le constructeur. La présente norme ne traite pas des phénomènes dangereux significatifs associés !texte supprimé" à la compatibilité électromagnétique.
La présente norme spécifie les mesures techniques appropriées pour éliminer ou réduire les risques engendrés par les phénomènes dangereux significatifs associés uniquement au fonctionnement, à la mise en service et réglage, au déchargement et à la maintenance périodique des machines.
Les matériels du service hivernal sont généralement montés sur un véhicule porteur (par exemple camions, engins de terrassement, tracteurs chariots industriels). La présente norme ne traite pas les prescriptions pour le «véhicule porteur» même si des modifications particulières ont été faites pour effectuer le service hivernal. Ces prescriptions seront établies par des directives et normes pour la construction des véhicules porteurs. L’utilisation sur voies publiques est régie par les codes de la route nationaux.
La présente norme ne traite d’aucune prescription pour les dispositifs de démontage (par exemple citernes démontables). Celles-ci sont spécifiées dans d’autres normes.
La présente Norme européenne ne traite pas des :
machines ou composants qui sont conçus séparément pour le nettoiement des rails tels que balais pour rails ;
matériels de service hivernal portatifs ou à conducteur accompagnant ;
machines !de maintenance des chaussées" couvertes par l’!EN 13524", telles que balayeuses frontales
machines pour l’entretien des terrains de sport ;
machines agricoles et forestières et de jardinage ;
machines destinées à être utilisées en atmosphère potentiellement explosive.

5.11 " 5 Safety requirements and/or measures The machines shall comply with the safety requirements and / or measures of this clause. In addition the machines shall be designed to comply with the requirements of !EN ISO 12100" for hazards that are significant but not dealt with, and for those that are relevant but not significant and therefore are not dealt with in this standard. SIST EN 13021:2004+A1:2009
This requirement shall be achieved for example by the provision of: check valves or similar functions within the control valves of hydraulic or pneumatic lifting equipment; or, self-locking actuators or automatically engaging latches in arrangement with a ratchet wheel for mechanical winches; or, control valves as reverse-flow prevention mechanism. Non-return valves (burst pipe protection) mounted directly on the lifting cylinder are not necessary unless workmen have to move underneath raised or tilted machine components as part of working procedure2); or, other locking devices conforming to 5.1.2. b) If persons have to enter beneath elevated machines or machine components when used as intended and under conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (e.g. maintenance, clearing, inspection) it is necessary to prevent unintended lowering of the elevated parts by providing safeguards, for example, by: automatically engaging mechanical locking devices; or pilot check valves integrated into the lifting cylinder; or
1) Accidental lowering is when a load runs back or descends because of an interruption or an irregularity in the energy supply.
2) The term "as part of working procedure" does not cover repair work. SIST EN 13021:2004+A1:2009
In hydraulic or pneumatic systems, this requirement shall be satisfied when the reverse flow is restricted by a non-return valve or an appropriately sized orifice. d) Access to safeguards against return and free fall of lifting means shall be possible only with the use of tools. e) Demountable attachments and equipment shall be so designed and constructed that they can be mounted and dismounted safely.
Powered systems shall incorporate a suitable form of synchronisation of the individual lifting elements of a lowering device. Where lifting elements are controll
