Agricultural and forestry machinery - Solid fertilizer distributors - Safety

This European Standard, applied together with EN 1553, specifies the safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of mounted, semi-mounted, trailed or self-propelled fertilizer distributors for solid fertilizer application, i.e. full width solid fertilizer distributors, solid fertilizer broadcasters, distributors with oscillating tube and line-distributors as well as solid fertilizer distributors driven by an auxiliary engine to be used by one operator only, used in agriculture, horticulture and in forestry. In addition, this European Standard specifies the type of information on safe working practices (including residual risks) to be provided by the manufacturer.
When requirements of this European Standard are different from those which are stated in EN 1553 the requirements of this European Standard take precedence over the requirements of EN 1553 for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this European Standard.
It does not apply to:
   combined seed and fertilizer drills;
   machines for distributing granulated pesticides;
   pedestrian controlled distributors;
   knapsack distributors.
This European Standard deals with all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to solid fertilizer distributors, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see Clause 4), excepting the hazards arising from:
   inadequate lighting of moving/working area;
   inadequate visibility from drivers/operators position;
   inadequate seating;
   travelling functions (drive, braking etc.);
   rolling over;
   equipment for loading fertilizer into the machine;
   an auxiliary engine.
It is not applicable to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) nor to environmental hazards (except noise). These aspects are covered by EN 13739-1, EN 13739-2:2003, EN 13740-1:2003 and EN 13740-2:2003.

En outre, la présente Norme européenne spécifie le type d'informations que le fabricant doit donner sur les pratiques d'utilisation sûre (y compris les risques résiduels).
Lorsque des dispositions de la présente Norme européenne sont différentes de celles mentionnées dans l'EN 1553:1999, les dispositions de la présente Norme européenne prennent le pas sur les dispositions de l'EN 1553:1999, pour les machines qui ont été conçues et fabriquées suivant les dispositions de la présente Norme européenne.
Il ne s'applique pas :
   aux semoirs combinés pour grains et engrais ;
   aux matériels de distribution de pesticides en granulés ;
   aux distributeurs à conducteur à pied ;
   aux distributeurs portés à dos.
La présente Norme européenne traite tous les phénomènes dangereux, situations et événements dangereux significatifs engendrés par les distributeurs d’engrais solides lorsqu'ils sont utilisés normalement et dans les conditions prévues par le fabricant (voir Article 4), sauf pour les phénomènes dangereux engendrés par :
l’inadéquation de l'éclairage de la zone de mobilité / travail ;
l’inadéquation de la visibilité depuis le poste de conduite / de travail ;
l’inadéquation du siège ;
les fonctions de déplacement (transmission, freinage, etc.) ;
le retournement ;
les équipements de chargement de l’engrais dans la machine ;
un moteur auxiliaire.

Introduction
This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this European Standard. These hazards are specific to solid fertilizer

Significant hazards that are common to all agricultural machines (self-propelled, mounted, semi-mounted and
trailed) are dealt with in EN 1553:1999.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that
have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.
1 Scope
This European Standard, applied together with EN 1553:1999, specifies the safety requirements and their
verification for the design and construction of mounted, semi-mounted, trailed or self-propelled fertilizer distributors
for solid fertilizer application, i.e. full width solid fertilizer distributors, solid fertilizer broadcasters, distributors with
oscillating tube and line-distributors as well as solid fertilizer distributors driven by an auxiliary engine to be used by
one operator only, used in agriculture, horticulture and in forestry. In addition, this European Standard specifies the
type of information on safe working practices (including residual risks) to be provided by the manufacturer.
When requirements of this European Standard are different from those which are stated in EN 1553:1999 the
requirements of this European Standard take precedence over the requirements of EN 1553:1999 for machines
that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this European Standard.
It does not apply to:
 combined seed and fertilizer drills;
 machines for distributing granulated pesticides;
 pedestrian controlled distributors;
 knapsack distributors.
This European Standard deals with all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to solid
fertilizer distributors, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see
Clause 4), excepting the hazards arising from:
inadequate lighting of moving/working area;

 inadequate visibility from drivers/operators position;
 inadequate seating;
 travelling functions (drive, braking etc.);
 rolling over;
 equipment for loading fertilizer into the machine;
 an auxiliary engine.
It is not applicable to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) nor to environmental hazards (except noise). These
aspects are covered by EN 13739-1:2003, EN 13739-2:2003, EN 13740-1:2003 and EN 13740-2:2003.
This European Standard is not applicable to solid fertilizer distributors which are manufactured before the date of its
publication as EN.
