Compliance marking and directives
EU Machinery Directive, 2006/42/EC
The directive is the main regulatory framework that sets out the criteria for
meeting the "Essential Health and Safety Requirements" for machinery.
The regulatory framework covers, for example, steering, brakes, access
routes, visibility, cab structure, sound levels, EMC characteristics, etc.
Modifications, for example to the cab's ROPS/FOPS structure, may in
certain cases require new CE marking and the issuing of a new EU
declaration.
EU EMC Directive, 2014/30/EC
The machine's electronic equipment may in some cases cause
interference with other electronic equipment, or be subjected to external
electromagnetic interference which may result in safety risks.
The EU's EMC directive on "Electromagnetic compatibility", 2014/30/EC,
provides a general description of what demands can be made of the
machine from a safety standpoint, where thresholds have been
determined according to international standards.
A machine or device must meet the standards in order to be CE-marked.
Our machines are tested especially for electromagnetic interference.
If other electronic equipment is installed on this machine, the equipment
must be CE-marked and tested on the machine for electromagnetic
interference.
EU Outdoor Noise Directive (2000/14/EC)
The machine and its components emit noise which, at high levels, can be
harmful to human health.
Proof of compliance is confirmed by the provision of an EU declaration of
conformity for each individual machine.
Modifications that negatively impact the machine's noise level (for
example engine/exhaust silencers, pumps, fans or sound absorbers) may
in certain cases require new CE marking and the issuing of a new EU
declaration.
