5、4 “Ride-on, motorized vehicles intended for the transportation of persons and goods and not intended for use on public roads Safety requirements” (Secretariat: AFNOR, France), Working Group WG 2 “All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs - Quads) and Side by Side Vehicles - Safety requirements and test methods”. T

6、he responsible German body involved in its preparation was the Normenausschuss Sport- und Freizeitgert (Sports Equipment Standards Committee), Working Committee NA 112-07-04 AA Motorisierte Freizeitfahrzeuge nicht fr den ffentlichen Straenverkehr. In addition to the legal units of measurement, this

7、standard also uses the unit “lbs”. It is important to note that according to the German law on units in metrology, the use of the unit “lbs” is not permitted in official or business communications within Germany. The indication of this unit solely serves to facilitate the communication with those co

8、untries where this unit is used (import-export business).

DIN EN 15997:2012-10EN 15997:2011 (E) 6 Introduction This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100 (all parts). The machinery concerned

34、and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document. 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

35、the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard. DIN EN 15997:2012-10EN 15997:2011 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard applies to “All Terrain Vehicles” or “ATVs” as defined in Clause 3 using liquid fuels (e.g

36、. petrol, diesel). This European Standard does not deal with requirements relating to use on public roads 1). This European Standard is not dealing with: ATVs exclusively intended for competition 2); agricultural and forestry tractors coming under the Directive 2003/37/EC; accessories for additional

37、 functions (towing hook and load carrying provisions remaining within the vertical projection onto the ground of the vehicle without these load carrying provisions are not considered as accessories); the additional hazards due to the use of the ATV on public roads; the additional hazards due to the

38、use of remote control. This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to ATVs, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). It deals with the significant hazards

39、 during the whole lifecycle of the product as defined in 5.3 of EN ISO 12100-1:2003. This European Standard is not applicable to ATVs which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN. NOTE For the purpose of this document, any reference to the vehicle should be regarded as a reference

40、 as a machine. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 614-1, S

43、ype-approval”. 2) The main criterion to be applied to judge whether vehicles are to be considered as exclusively intended for competition is whether they are designed according to the technical specifications laid down by one of the officially recognised racing associations.
