Introduction
This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100-1.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are indi-
cated in the scope of this European Standard.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the pro-
visions 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 part of EN 500 specifies the safety requirements for paver-finishers as defined in Clause 3 and deals with the
significant hazards relevant to these machines, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse
which are reasonably foreseeable. This part of EN 500 contains additional requirements to EN 500-1 “Common
requirements”.
If internal and/or external vibrators are used for concrete paving, then prEN 12649 applies.
