IS 17055 : Part 1 : 2018 Earth-Moving Machinery — Safety Part 1 General Requirements

ICS 53.100

MED 07

Reaffirmed 2024

1. Scope

1.1 This standard (Part 1) specifies the general safety requirements for earth-moving machinery as defined in IS/ISO 6165, each of these requirements being common to two or more earth-moving machine families. It is also applicable to machine attachments, and to derivative machinery designed primarily for equipment used to excavate, load, transport, drill, spread, compact or trench earth, rock, and other materials.

1.2 It is intended to be used in conjunction with the other parts of IS 17055, which give the provisions that are specific to particular machine families. Those specific requirements take precedence over the requirements of this document for the machines concerned. For multipurpose machinery, all of those parts of IS 17055 whose requirements cover the functions and applications of such machines are applicable.

EXAMPLE - For a compact loader also used as a trencher, the relevant requirements of IS 17055 (Part 1), IS 17055 (Part 3) and ISO 20474-10 are applicable.

1.3 This standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the earthmoving machinery within its scope (see Annex A) when used as intended or under conditions of misuse reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer. It specifies the appropriate technical measures for eliminating or reducing risks arising from relevant hazards, hazardous situations or events during commissioning, operation and maintenance.

Specific requirements related to autonomous machines are covered in ISO 17757.

1.4 This standard is not applicable to machines manufactured before the date of its publication.
