NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 1) (First Revision) which is identical with ISO 6405-1 : 2017 ‘Earth-moving machinery — Symbols for operator controls and other displays — Part 1: Common symbols’ issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Material Handling Systems and Equipment Sectional Committee and approval of the Mechanical Engineering Division Council.

This standard supersedes IS/ISO 6405 (Part 1) : 2004 ‘Earth-moving machinery — Symbols for operator controls and other displays: Part 1 Common symbols’.

This Indian Standard is published in two parts. The other part in this series is:

Part 2 Symbol for specific machine, equipment and accessories

The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain terminologies and conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

(a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear, referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.

(b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker, while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
