This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publicati
19、on of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2012, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by February 2013. NOTE Acknowledging that, at the time of publication, the requirements included in this amendment do not represent the state of the art, a tra
20、nsition period of 12 months is permitted after the date of publication, such that manufacturers can develop their products sufficiently to meet the requirements of this amendment. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CE
21、N and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This European Standard was approved by CEN on 27 November 1998 and includes Corrigendum 1 issued by CEN on 27 September 2006, Amendment 1 approved by CEN on 27 July 2006, Amendment 2 approved by CEN on 19 O
22、ctober 2009 and Amendment 3 approved by CEN on 2011-12-03. This document supersedes %EN 1459:1998+A2:2010 rough terrain trucks for operation on unimproved natural terrain and disturbed terrain or areas. 1.4 Trucks may be equipped with fork arms for normal industrial duties, or attachments for specif
23、ic applications such as handling freight containers. Trucks may be equipped with stabilisers, axle locking or lateral levelling devices. 1.5 This standard covers all specific hazards which could occur during operation and maintenance of trucks. For hazards occurring during construction, transportati
24、on, commissioning, decommissioning and disposal, reference should be made to EN 292-2. 1.6 Unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer, the trucks are designed to operate in a temperature range of -20C to + 50C. The manufacturer shall specify in his instructions for use the precautions to be take
25、n when using the trucks at extreme temperatures. 2 Normative references This European standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated
26、references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

35、 All trucks shall be designed in a way that they cannot be started without a key, a code, a magnetic card or other equivalent device. 5.1.2 Unintended movement Trucks shall be fitted with a device which prevents the engine being started whilst the drive-system is engaged. When the drive system direc
36、tion control is in neutral, provisions shall be made to locate and maintain it in its neutral position. 5.1.3 Parking brake A parking brake shall be provided complying with 5.2.1 5.1.4 Uncontrolled motion On level ground the truck shall not move from rest until the drive system has been engaged BS E

The
38、 deactivation device shall either be self-acting or acting by compulsory actuation of the relevant device. 5.1.6 Powered travel movement Means shall be provided to prevent powered travel when the operator is not at the normal operators position. Powered travel shall not occur automatically when the
39、operator returns to the normal operators position without an additional operation, e.g. by requiring resetting the direction control. Application of the parking brake shall apply neutral travel control. NOTE “Application of the parking brake shall apply neutral travel control” does not apply to truc
40、ks with hydro-static transmission because this transmission system achieves the same objective. 5.1.7 Non-activation of the parking brake A warning shall be activated when the operator is not at the normal operators positionn and the parking brake has not been applied. a pressure-relief valve or oth
41、er suitable means may be used if necessary. f) The use of aluminium piping in the liquid petroleum gas line is not permissible. g) Hose lengths shall be as short as possible. h) High pressure unions and joints (above one bar) shall be made of metal except for any constrained sealing washers.

43、G entering any other fuel container and to cut off each fuel source before the alternative one is opened. c) If the truck is equipped with two or more containers to supply fuel, they shall be connected via a multiway valve, or other suitable means, so that LPG can be drawn only from one container at
44、 a time. The use of two or more containers (at the same time) must not be possible. d) Pressure relief valves or liquid level indicators shall be installed in such a way that cannot discharge in the direction of the driver or onto truck components which may be a source of ignition. e) If corrosion o
45、f a part will interfere with its proper functioning it shall be provided with a corrosion resistant protective coating. f) All fuel system components shall be firmly secured to the truck and the fastenings arranged to minimise the effect of vibration. g) Pressure reducing valves shall be readily acc
46、essible for inspection and maintenance. 5.4.6 Electrical requirements All electrical systems and equipments shall comply with EN 1175-1:1998, EN 1175-2:1998 and EN 1175-3:1998. 5.5 Systems for lifting, tilting and reaching 5.5.1 Chains and wire ropes 5.5.1.1 Chains When the lifting mechanism (liftin
47、g, telescoping) includes a chain or chains, the truck manufacturer shall use only leaf or roller chains which, in relation to the minimum breaking load certified by the manufacturer of the chain, will provide a factor K1, in relation to the static load that would exist in a single chain or equally l
48、oaded chains when the maximum rated load is in the transporting position, assuming no friction in the mast structure, given by the equation: Kminimum breaking load for new chain number of chainsrated capacity of the truck + dead weight of lifting mechanism1=where: for trucks 10 000 kg capacity K15 f
