Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).

Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

constitute an endorsement.

For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the

World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see www .iso .org/

iso/ foreword .html.

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 23, Tractors and machinery for agriculture

and forestry, Subcommittee SC 3, Safety and comfort, in collaboration with CEN/TC 144, Tractors and

machinery for agriculture and forestry, in accordance with the agreement on technical cooperation

between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).

a tolerance of ±50 mm. It shall be positioned so the operator can maintain stability while carrying out

the service required.
Add a new subclause:
4.8.4 Walkways

Walkways shall be a minimum of 300 mm width. It is allowable for the width to reduce to 250 mm

for short distances (e.g. for one step length) to accommodate handrail support members or machine

b) compatibility with the tractor’s, for example hitching system, PTO drive shaft, vertical load

at hitching point, engine power, stability (see 6.3.1, 6.3.2, 6.4.1), including instructions when

replacement of the drive shaft and/or PIC guard are needed these should be clear, concise, and

maintain the safety level of the elements that are replaced. When applicable, the information shall

include:

Walkways shall be a minimum of 300 mm width. It is allowable for the width to reduce to 250 mm

for short distances to accommodate handrail support members or machine components if it does not

create additional hazards.
4.19
Modify the NOTE to read:

NOTE ISO 13850:2006 is not applicable to wireless emergency stop devices. Requirements for wireless

remote control devices that require emergency stop devices of ISO 13850:2015 can be given in relevant machine-

specific standards.

4.20
Replace 4.20 with the following:

Safety-related parts of control systems shall be in accordance with ISO 25119-1 to ISO 25119-4 or

ISO 13849-1 and ISO 13849-2.

NOTE Annex E provides guidance for risk assessment and determination of performance levels.

5.1.7
Replace 5.1.7.1 with the following:

5.1.7.1 The design and position of the operator's station shall be such that the operator has adequate

visibility direct or indirect to operate the machine and view the work area of the machine.

If during driving operation direct visibility to the area just behind the machine is not possible, an

appropriate device, or combination of devices, shall be provided, such as:
— means for indirect visibility (such as mirrors, CCTV);

— an audible reverse warning alarm which is automatically engaged when reverse drive is selected

and in accordance with ISO 9533;
— visual warning signal;

— protective device, to detect the presence of persons and stop the machinery or warn the driver.

NOTE Consider operating conditions such as regularly moving backward and forward on the farmyard.

If a cabin is provided, provisions to install devices for defrosting and demisting the front window(s)

shall be made and glare from sunshine or artificial lighting shall be minimized by adjustable shielding,

by location or other means.

Modify 5.1.8.1 to read:

5.1.8.1 To avoid unauthorized activation of the engine starting, means such as the following shall be

provided:
— key-operated ignition or starting switch;
— lockable cab;
— lockable cover for the ignition or starting switch;
— security ignition or starting lock;
— lockable battery disconnecting switch.

Information to avoid unauthorized starting shall be provided in the operator’s manual [see 8.2.3 f)].

Modify 8.2.3 b) to read

b) compatibility with the tractors, for example hitching system, PTO drive shaft, vertical load

at hitching point, engine power, stability (see 6.3.1, 6.3.2, 6.4.1), including instructions where

replacement of the drive shaft and/or PIC guard are needed, to be clear, concise, and maintain the

safety level of the elements that are replaced. When applicable, the information shall include:

— type of connections on the PTO side;
— type of connections on the PIC side;
— maximum allowed diameter of the guards for compatibility with the PIC guard;
— type of allowed locking system(s);
— type and setting of overload protection device;
— power and speed to be transmitted;
— length and procedure to adapt the length;
Add the following to 8.2.3:

z) information on the use of the PTO-drive-shaft for PTO-driven equipment, such as:

— information about the interaction between PTO-drive-shaft guarding and PIC guard;

— information, if necessary, on how to attach the restraining system;

— the need to and how to use a support for the PTO drive shaft when it is not in use, that is

different from the restraining system and which does not cause such damage to the guard that

the telescoping of the inner and outer tubes is prevented.

ANNEX E
(informative)
Guidance for risk assessment and determination of performance
levels for safety-related parts of control systems

E.1 Risk assessment was used to determine the requirements of ISO 4254-1 and the requirements of

associated machine specific type-C standards. This annex provides some basic guidance for the use of

risk assessment when determining requirements either of related machine specific standards or for

hazards not covered by those documents, including the required performance level for safety-related

parts of control systems. Additional requirements to deal with hazards not covered by ISO 4254-1 and

associated machine specific type-C standards are outside the scope of those standards.

Risk assessment and the allocation of required performance levels are not simple issue and should be

carried out by suitably qualified and experienced persons (see E.3). The requirements of ISO 12100

for risk assessment and ISO 13849 (all parts) or ISO 25119 (all parts) for performance levels should be

taken into account as they provide a more detailed approach.

The specification and verification of the performance level should cover the whole of the safety-related

control system from input sensors to final switching devices (e.g. to stop hazardous motion).

E.2 To achieve optimum results, the machine design accompanying risk assessment and the

determination of the required performance level are considered in parallel. This is due to the

interdependence of the machine's safety concept (for example inherently safe design, protective

measures, etc.) with the determination of the requi
