Introduction
According to the European health and safety requirements, work equipment are designed and
constructed so that it can be operated without putting persons at risk. The manufacturer has to
consider the intended conditions of use, but also any reasonably foreseeable misuse.
For that purpose the manufacturer carries out a risk analysis in order to determine the hazards which
the operators and users are exposed to. The equipment will then be designed and constructed taking
into account the results of this assessment, by an iterative process of risk assessment and risk
reduction.
As specified in the guidance document "Classification of equipment used for lifting loads with lifting
machinery" (Machinery Working Group — January 2012), containers used for collecting and lifting bulk
material are not covered by Directive 2006/42/EC [1].
However, a large number of the hazards which the operators using such equipment and the persons
present in the vicinity of lifting/handling operations are exposed to are the same as those resulting
from the use of lifting appliances proper.
These are the reasons why CEN/TC 183 decided to include into this standard requirements intended to
support the corresponding essential health and safety requirements of Directive 2006/42/EC [1], in
particular those related to lifting operations (part 4 of Annex I).

4 General requirements
4.1 Recommendations
The installation site of a container shall be compatible with the collection operations. It means it shall
respect the following constraints:
— the maximum distance between the vertical axis of the lifting connection and the vertical axis of the
lifting crane shall not be more than 5 000 mm;
— the access of the collection vehicle shall be valid and safe at any time;
— the environment of the container, as well as the distance between the container and the parking
place of the collection vehicle shall be free of any obstacle, to allow safe collection operations: like
trees, urban furniture, electric wires, parking places, both horizontal and plain ground;
— at least once a year a control shall be conducted by expert party on the container and particularly
on all lifting and emptying accessories: emptying device, emptying hatch(es), lifting connection,
handling container system, locking system. For this purpose, the container shall be designed to
allow safe and easy access to these parts, and the supplier shall provide its recommendations for
these operations;

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------

SIST EN 13071-1:2019
EN 13071-1:2019 (E)
— internal and external cleaning operations shall be recommended, at least once a year;
— the customer shall verify that the collecting service uses the right dedicated equipment (crane,
lifting accessory, interface / lifting connections, …).
4.2 Design
The container shall be constructed so that when it is handled with a nominal load, it fits on a designated
lifting device. It shall be safely locked to the lifting accessory during the lifting operation.
The container shall not include any element that will result in collected materials being retained
thereby compromising complete emptying.
The container shall be constructed such that it can be easily dismantled at its end of life. An “end-of-life
notice” shall be provided, materials shall be marked in accordance with ISO standards.
There shall not exist any possibility of opening or closing the emptying hatches of the container without
