25、/trimming device): the minimum distance to be attained to obstructions (e.g. posts, walls) during mowing/trimming (see Figure 3).

All stipulated geometric dimensions apply wit
28、h the carrier vehicle positioned on a level horizontal surface with a maximum inclination of 1 % (base plane). The users kinematic specifications/ranges for the supplier shall also indicate whether the work is to be performed on the right-hand side, left-hand side or both sides of the direction of t
29、ravel. 4.2.2 Obstructions and clearances Obstructions behind which mowing is required. The ability to mow strips is influenced by obstructions such as protective barriers, traffic signs etc. If an obstruction cannot be avoided, the kinematics shall allow the mowing/trimming device to pass above the
30、obstruction. The obstruction to be bypassed from above is to be specified as a linear envelope comprising the corner coordinates Bx and Lx with respect to the central or base plane (refer to the Figure 4). Obstructions on embankments and ditch banks shall be specified separately in m wherever necess
31、ary.

The mowing machine shall cover the entire r
34、ange in between. The minimum distance is the interval between the central plane and the nearest line of the mowing strip. The maximum distance is the interval between the central plane and the furthest line of the mowing strip (Figure 7). The mowing plane can be identical to the base plane. If the m
35、owing strip does not lie in the base plane, a horizontal interval h to this plane shall be specified. If the mowing strip is located below the base plane, the interval h shall be specified with a negative sign. If the mowing strip is located above the base plane, the interval h shall be specified wi

The embankment beginning and end shall be specified respectively in terms of the horizontal distance to the central plane and distance to the base plane in m as well as the

The ditch banks beginning and end shall be specified respectively in
41、 terms of the horizontal distance to the central plane and distance to the base plane in m as well as the angle formed between the slope and base plane perpendicular (see Figure 9).

43、ing. Serving, in particular, to ensure an ergonomic position for the operator in this process, the displacement depends on the mounting on the carrier vehicle. The displacement range is defined by minimum and maximum distances between the operators seat reference plane and the nearest edge of the mo
44、wing device (see Figure 10). If the mowing device is to be located behind the operators seat reference plane as viewed in the direction of travel, the corresponding dimensions shall be specified with a negative sign.

Trimming planes shall refer to the final, post-trimming surfaces. 4.2.9 Traffic zones and clearances for moving o
49、perations These specifications describe the maximum permissible utilization of traffic zones and clearances (width x length x height) for transpositions required during interrupted operations (e.g. caused by bridges). After completion of the required task, the employed machines should be restorable to any required kinematic setting and mowing attitude in a reasonably short period of time from the operators seat.
