22、as used in agriculture, forestry, landscaping and gardening (including amenity use). It describes methods for the elimination or reduction of risks arising from their use. In addition, it specifies the type of information to be provided by the manufacturer on safe working practices. This European St
23、andard does not cover the requirements to fulfil national road traffic regulations such as lights, steering and braking. Environmental aspects have not been considered in this standard.

31、1991 apply together with the following: 3.1 pedestrian controlled tractor agricultural self-propelled machine designed to be pedestrian controlled, capable of driving and/or pulling different working tools (see Figure B.1) 3.2 tool working element which can be adapted to a pedestrian controlled trac
32、tor 3.3 mounted rotary cultivator tool used for working the soil composed of a group of rotating elements which can be adapted to a pedestrian controlled tractor. 3.4 motor hoe agricultural self-propelled machine designed to be pedestrian controlled with or without support wheel(s), in such a way th
33、at its working elements act as hoeing tools to ensure propulsion (see figure B.2) 3.5 motor hoe with drive wheel(s) agricultural self-propelled machine designed to be pedestrian controlled and propelled by one or various wheels directly actuated from the engine and equipped with hoeing tools (see fi
34、gure B.3). 3.6 handlebar device equipped with grips enabling the machine to be manually controlled. 3.7 maximum operating engine speed highest engine speed obtainable with the tools engaged and with the machine supported such that the working tools are clear of any contact with the ground( 4 List of
35、 hazards The list of significant hazards dealt with in this standard is given in Annex A. Annex A also indicates the hazards which have not been dealt with. BS EN 709:1997+A4:2009EN 709:1997+A4:2009 (E) 7 5 Safety requirements and/or measures 5.1 General Unless otherwise specified in this standard,
36、the machine shall comply with the requirements of tables 1, 3, 4 and 6 of EN 294:1992. The requirements of prEN 1553 apply where relevant. 5.2 Starting device In addition to the hold-to-run controls (see 5.5) the machines shall be equipped with a device which prevents the engine starting if the star
37、t-up can induce rotation of the wheels or movement of the tool. The type of device which can be considered as fulfilling this requirement is one which, for example, by a mechanical linkage only allows the engine to start when the gear lever is in neutral and the tool is declutched. Such a device is
38、not necessary if, when starting the machine according to the instructions, the operator is not required to be in the danger zone. The danger zone is taken as the longitudinal band defined by the width of the machine and tool extending both forward and rearwards from it. If the machine is not provide
39、d with reverse gear, the danger zone to the rear of the machine is limited to a distance of 550 mm as measured from the rear extremity of the protective devices for moving parts (see figure 1). In the case of a machine provided with reverse gear, the danger zone to the rear includes the whole longit
40、udinal zone limited by the working width of the equipment. Should the operator have to lean on the machine to start the engine, the appropriate place shall be indicated or an identified support provided with a corresponding indication. With the exception of hand cranks (see ISO/DIS 11102-1 and ISO/D
41、IS 11102-2), starting devices shall be integral with the machine (e.g. recoil pull start). Loose belts, cables, etc. are not accepted. If starting is achieved by means of a hand crank, it shall be equipped with a device that disconnects the hand crank immediately when the engine starts and prevents
42、its connection when the engine is running or kick-back during starting. Dimensions in millimetres Figure 1 Limits of the danger zone when operating the starting device for machines with no reverse gear BS EN 709:1997+A4:2009EN 709:1997+A4:2009 (E) 8 5.3 Manual controls The height of the handlebar gr
43、ips in relation to the ground shall be adjustable. The following manually operated controls shall be within the “hand reach zone“ from the normal operator working position: clutch; brakes; gearbox (within the selected range); reversing device; steering system; engine working speed; hold-to-run contr
44、ol (see 5.5); tool clutch lever; stop control. The “hand reach zone“ (see figure 2) is defined as the truncated hemispherical volume of radius R = 800 mm with its centre at the midpoint (point B in figure 2) of a line joining the handlebar grip ends when the grips are set to a height of 800 mm above
45、 the ground, or set to the next available lowest height setting where this is not available, with its flat face on the vertical plane tangential to the handlebar grip ends and facing rearwards, and truncated below by a plane parallel to the ground positioned 450 mm above the ground. An engine stoppi
46、ng device shall be provided. The engine stopping device shall not depend on sustained manual pressure for its operation.( BS EN 709:1997+A4:2009EN 709:1997+A4:2009 (E) 9 Dimensions in millimetres Figure 2 “Hand reach zone“ volume 5.4 Identification of controls The controls used for driving the worki
47、ng tool and for locking the differential in their different positions shall be marked. The gear positions (including the neutral position) shall be durably and clearly marked and located within the field of vision of the operator. Detailed instructions on the operation of all controls shall be provi
48、ded in the instruction handbook. Symbols in accordance with EN ISO 3767-1:1995 and EN ISO 3767-3:1996 shall be used as appropriate. BS EN 709:1997+A4:2009EN 709:1997+A4:2009 (E) 10 5.5 Controls of the movement of the machine and of the tool The machine shall be equipped with a hold-to-run control(s)
49、.( All movements of the machine and of the working tool shall be stopped when the hold-to-run control(s) is (are) released. Releasing the hold-to-run control(s) shall not stop the engine. For electrical powered machines, this requirement does not apply. The force required to maintain the hold-to-run control in the engaged position shall not be greater than 27,5 N when the hold-to-run control is located
