Scope:

  1. This part of ISO 4254 specifies the safety requirements and the means of their verification for the design and construction of self-propelled ride-on machines, mounted, semi-mounted and trailed machines used in agriculture to deal with the hazards which are typical for most of the machines. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working practices including information about residual risks to be provided by the manufacturer.
    This part of ISO 4254 is not applicable to
    — agricultural or forestry tractors,

— aircraft and air-cushion vehicles used in agriculture,

— lawn and garden equipment,

— machine-specific components or functions (e.g. working tools and/or processes).

This part of ISO 4254 is not applicable to hazards related to periodic service, machine conversion and repairs intended to be carried out by professional service personnel, environmental hazards, road safety (e.g. steering, braking), or to the power take-off (PTO) drive shaft; neither is it applicable to guards of moving parts for power transmission except for strength requirements for guards and barriers.

 

This part of ISO 4254 is not applicable to machines which are manufactured before the date of its publication.
 

Project need:

To withdraw CSA ISO 4254-1:20 Agricultural machinery - Safety - Part 1: General requirements as it is no longer supported by the CSA committee
