European foreword
This document (EN 16842-8:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 150 “Industrial
trucks – Safety”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by July 2021, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn at the latest by July 2021.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document is intended to be used in combination with the requirements in EN 16842-1.
The EN 16842 series consists of the following parts under the general title “Powered industrial trucks -
Visibility – Test methods and verification”:
— Part 1: General requirements;
— Part 2: Sit-on counterbalance trucks and rough terrain masted trucks up to and including 10 000 kg
capacity;
— Part 3: Reach trucks up to and including 10 000 kg capacity;
— Part 4: Industrial variable reach trucks up to and including 10 000 kg capacity;
— Part 5: Industrial variable reach trucks greater than 10 000 kg capacity;
— Part 6: Sit-on counterbalance trucks and rough terrain masted trucks greater than 10 000 kg capacity;
— Part 7: Variable reach and masted container trucks handling freight containers of 6 m (20 ft) length
and longer;
— Part 8: Stand on counterbalance trucks up to and including 10 000 kg capacity;
— Part 9: Order picking lateral- and front stacking trucks with elevating operator position;
— Part 10: Towing and Pushing tractors and Burden carrier.
It is intended to develop the parts related to the following machinery:
— Pallet stacking trucks (rider controlled);
— Single side loader;
— Multi-directional forklift truck;
— Articulated counterbalance lift truck;
— Non-stacking low-lift straddle carrier (as defined in ISO 5053-1:2020, 3.18);
— Stacking high-lift straddle carrier (as defined in ISO 5053-1:2020, 3.19).
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,

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 document specifies the requirements and test procedures for 360° visibility of stand-on
counterbalance trucks with a capacity up to and including 10 000 kg in accordance with ISO 5053-1
(herein after referred to as trucks) without a load and it is intended to be used in conjunction with
EN 16842-1.
Where specific requirements in this part are modified from the general requirements in EN 16842-1, the
requirements of this part are truck-specific and to be used for stand-on counterbalance trucks with a
capacity up to and including 10 000 kg.
This part of EN 16842 deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events,
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 manufa
