Powered industrial trucks - Visibility - Test method and verification - Part 9: Order-picking, lateral- and front-stacking trucks with elevating operator position

This standard specifies the requirements and test procedures for 360° visibility of order-picking trucks and lateral- and front-stacking trucks with elevating operator position with a sit-on or stand-on operator in accordance with ISO 5053-1 and is to be used in conjunction with EN 16842-1.
This standard does not apply to:
- driving with elevated operator position above 500 mm.
Where specific requirements are contained in EN 16842-9 they take precedence over the general requirements of EN 16842-1.

Kraftbetriebene Flurförderzeuge - Sichtverhältnisse - Prüfverfahren und Verifikation - Teil 9: Kommissionier-Flurförderzeuge und Dreiseitenstapler mit anhebbarer Bedienerposition

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für die Rundumsicht (360°) von unbeladenen motorkraftbetriebenen Kommissionier- und Dreiseitenflurförderzeugen mit einem hebbaren Fahrerplatz (im Folgenden als Flurförderzeug bezeichnet) in Übereinstimmung mit ISO 5053-1 fest und soll in Verbindung mit EN 16842-1 verwendet werden.
Wenn spezifische Anforderungen in diesem Teil von den allgemeinen Anforderungen in EN 16842-1 abweichen, sind die Anforderungen in diesem Teil für das Flurförderzeug spezifisch und für motorbetriebene Kommissionier- und Dreiseitenflurförderzeuge mit einem hebbaren Fahrerplatz zu verwenden.
Dieser Teil von EN 16842 behandelt alle in Anhang ZA, Tabelle ZA.1 aufgeführten signifikanten Gefährdungen, Gefährdungssituationen oder Gefährdungsereignisse, die für die Sichtverhältnisse des Bedieners bei vorgesehener Nutzung der betreffenden Maschinen unter normalen Umständen durch den Hersteller vorhersehbaren Fehlanwendungen relevant sind.

Chariots de manutention automoteurs - Visibilité ‐ Méthode d'essai et vérification - Partie 9 : Chariots préparateurs de commande, à prise latérale et frontale avec poste de conduite élevable

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les prescriptions et les modes opératoires relatifs à la visibilité
sur 360° des chariots de manutention automoteurs préparateurs de commande à vide, à prise latérale
et frontale avec poste de conduite élevable (ci‐après désignés chariot) conformes à l'ISO 5053‐1 et est
destinée à être utilisée conjointement avec le prEN 16842‐1.
Lorsque des prescriptions spécifiques de la présente partie sont modifiées par rapport aux
prescriptions générales du prEN 16842‐1, les prescriptions de la présente partie sont spécifiques au
chariot et sont à utiliser pour les chariots de manutention automoteurs préparateurs de commande, à
prise latérale et frontale avec poste de conduite élevable.
La présente partie de l'EN 16842 traite de tous les phénomènes dangereux, situations dangereuses ou
événements dangereux significatifs énumérés à l'Annexe ZA, Tableau ZA.1, relatifs à la visibilité de
l’opérateur pour les machines concernées lorsqu'elles sont utilisées comme prévu et dans des
conditions de mauvaise utilisation raisonnablement prévisible par le fabricant.

Vozila za talni transport - Gnana vozila za talni transport - Vidno polje voznika - Preskusna metoda in preverjanje - 9. del: Tovorni in tristrani viličarji z dvižnim položajem upravljavca

Ta standard določa zahteve in preskusne postopke za 360-stopinjsko vidno polje voznika pri tovornih in tristranih viličarjih z dvižnim položajem upravljavca s sedečim ali stoječim upravljavcem v skladu s standardom ISO 5053 -1 ter je predviden za uporabo skupaj s standardom EN 16842-1. Ta standard se ne uporablja za: – vožnjo z dvižnim položajem upravljavca nad 500 mm. Posebne zahteve iz standarda EN 16842-9 imajo prednost pred splošnimi zahtevami iz standarda EN 16842-1.

Introduction
This document is a type-C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the
market players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance etc.)
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events
are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-
B standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the
other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this
type-C standard.”

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the requirements and test procedures for 360° visibility of unladen
self-propelled industrial order-picking, lateral- and front-stacking trucks with elevating operator
position (herein referred to as truck), in accordance with ISO 5053-1 and is intended to be used in
conjunction with prEN 16842-1.
Where specific requirements in this part are modified from the general requirements in prEN 16842-1,
the requirements of this part are truck specific and to be used for self-propelled industrial order-
picking, lateral- and front-stacking trucks with elevating operator position.
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.
